I feel all people want to be happy, being happy for some people would consist of being financially stable,with a good education, a good job, and possibly a family. But why is it that many people never achieve their goal of being happy to the full extent? So many times you may hear of people saying,"well i did the best I could do" or,"I tried my hardest". Is that always the truth?? I would say two out of three times its not the truth. Its just that so many people sell themselves short. In other words they settle for less, never trying to continue achieving. If you really want something to be done you have to keep on working on it until it is completely done and there is no more to do. If people would just put their all into achieving their goals (not necessarily the goal of happy, but all goals in general), much more people would be smarter, more powerful and last but not least, A lot more happier with themselves therefore being happier with there lives.
