Yea right!
Some kids need a sense of reality. I think that true happiness is pride – pride in what you’ve accomplished

You may be interested in my recent book, The How of Happiness: A Scientific Approach to Getting the Life You Want (2008, Penguin Press), which extends the research you cite by discussing the determinants of happiness and scientifically supported ways that people can become lastingly happier.

By being proactive, we are creating opportunity and by creating opportunity, we have more chance to be lucky and meet right persons. I believe that chance have an impact but that you can make chance happen also. Here again the more you do the better it is, even for chance.

Everything depends on the inside level of self-consciousness. My opinion is that everyone who live in peace with himself, not looking for excuses for the wrong he done and trying to make world a better place could achieve happiness. There is no simple solution for that but there could be some ways of making our selves feeling better about what we do and who we are.

The most important is what do you expect and what are your abilities. If you expect to become a rock star and you don’t you could feel not very happy about that. But if you had not expected such thing you will not feel unhappy because you are not :) I think the best way is not to expect a lot, but to try a lot. In that case you can always be surprised in a good way.

I would like to be a way for everyone to be happy but it isn’t. Plato thought he found the way to make everyone happy and now he is called the father of every single totalitarism.
