    I’m very happy and living as well as anyone could hope for.

    There was probably a lot of luck involved. Including having a good upbringing, supportive parents, decent education. But I also worked very hard to improve the things in my life I was unhappy with. Then I think the last bit is just gratitude for what I do have. I could spend months focusing on how I don’t have a yacht or private jet, or whatever, and be unhappy. But it’s so much better to appreciate what you do have. A good partner, a nice home, great food, a healthy body, an inquisitive mind. Access to the internet with all the good it has to offer.

    I recommend focusing on and appreciating what you already have.
