Don’t worry so much about being happy.

Worry about whether or not you are experiencing life fully, both the good and the bad.

Good things are going to happen as will bad things.

If you are ok with experiencing both the good and the bad, the bad won’t get you down quite as much and your ability to appreciate the good is enhanced.

Accept your responsibilities. Responsibilities give your life meaning and meaning helps you achieve a sense of fulfillment and yes, happiness. 

So don’t look for things that will make you happy. Strive to live life fully.
