One of the most popular responses we get when we ask people what they want most in life is happiness. Even though we all have different answers, we all want to be happy, but most of us have no idea how to get there.

In the end, much of what we do in life aims to make ourselves happy, no matter what our motivations may be. No matter how obvious it is, we continue to approach its acquisition incorrectly.

Suppose we see happiness as a destination or reward for attaining certain life milestones, such as finishing college, getting married, or obtaining the perfect job; in that case, our search for it may span a lifetime. Rather than being satisfied with our present successes, it's all too simple to look forward to the next set of ambitions.

We must realize one thing about happiness; however, it is not something we shall experience in the future when everything goes as planned. People and things we spend time with and participate in should be a source of happiness. Taking action and doing the things that bring us joy is our duty. For those wanting to learn how to attain happiness, this episode is for you.
