You Don't Know What Makes You Happy

What's your goal in life?

When asked most some people will say they want to buy a house, or get married, or run a marathon. Ok...but why?

Well because being a home owner means more security, or because they want to fall in love, or because they want to be healthy. Ok...but why?

If you ask why enough times, most people will reveal that it is because they believe their goal will make them happy. Tony Hsieh, in Delivering Happiness, asks us to consider this question in our personal and professional lives. Many of us are working feverously on goals that we believe will make us happy even when it turns out we're extremely bad at predicting what will make us happy. So if you're going to construct your life around goals to "make yourself happy", shouldn't you spend a little time learning about happiness?
