The search for happiness is overrated

Searching for happiness implies that happiness is someplace out there that we can find our way to. It implies that our well-being depends on external factors such as money, careers, accolades, achievements, and other people’s opinions. Searching for something where it’s not is incredibly frustrating. The reality is, happiness cannot be found in the outside world because it’s already within us.
