It's important that you start from a place of happiness and participate in the activities just because you are enjoying them.
The single biggest reason it’s so hard to be happy Shakespeare says, “For there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” But if it’s just thinking, plain thinking, why can’t we think ourselves into a good mood whenever we want? Seems like we should be able to just flip a mental switch.

"Our problem-scanning machine spends its day looking for worries. It’s helpful when you’re in serious trouble but stressful when you’re not. On top of that, we’re living in a Culture of More versus a Culture of Enough. Everywhere we look, we are reminded of what else we need. You can move to a shack in the woods to get away from it all! But we’d miss you too much there. Please don’t do that."
Always remember how lucky you are to be where you are. Remember you have enough! Remember more isn’t always better.
Remember the lottery.
