Here are the six factors that determine happiness.

Though I’m pretty sure happiness is overrated. (Charlie Sheen was probably pretty happy for quite awhile.)

I’ve got three of the six.

  1. I am missing many of these. That makes me unhappy (though not actually).

  2. You’ve only got three? I find that hard to believe. Maybe, maybe, you’re missing #6, but I doubt even that.

    1. Self esteem
    2. Sense of control
    3. Extroversion
    4. Optimism
    5. Positive social relationships
    6. Sense of meaning/purpose

    The first five surge out of your writings. You seriously question a couple of those?
