Do you have everything you need, but still feel like something's missing?
You may have a life many people dream of, but sometimes, you can't help but feel some form of discontent.
Despite having one of the highest standards of living in the world, the level of happiness among Americans is at its lowest. In fact, it has been declining for the past 20 years.
Social media, reliance on drugs, and the endless pursuit of wealth are just some of the reasons for this phenomenon. We are constantly bombarded with messages and images of how life should look like, and we try to reach this aspirational goal through any means necessary.
We can chase it through traveling, buying expensive things, achieving career success, or even getting married and starting a family. But why do you still feel unsatisfied, even after you have all this?
What is it that makes us truly happy?
Plenty of scientific research has been done to find the answer to this question. There is also a lot of advice from self-help books and motivational speakers on being happy.
Thankfully, you don't have to go through all the studies and TED talks online to find the key to happiness.

It is when you are focused on genuinely living a life of truth, purpose, and meaning, that happiness will come to you.
