How To Be Happy (https://www.nytimes.com/guides/well/how-to-be-happy?mc=adintl&mcid=facebook&mccr=EDU&ad-keywords=IntlAudDevEDU&subid2=manual) - Pretty damn cool consolidation by The New York Times of tips and tricks from "Behavioral scientists." Plenty of quality links therein.

Always expect the worse. The outcome will pleasantly surprise you every time.

Wilshire and I have repeated versions of "hope for the best, plan for the worst" to each other for years.

Happiness is awareness of reality. Nietzsche ( at times ) beautifully expresses components, such as happiness is the feeling power is growing inside you - but there's more.

Conversely, unhappiness is the feeling that an Alien is growing inside of you. ;)
