Happiness is not something that happens | Quote by Prof Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

Reflections by Simerjeet Singh on the topic, "Happiness is not something that happens".
In the classic work on happiness – ‘Flow‘ By Prof. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.

Here’s what Prof. Mihaly writes in the first chapter titled – 'Happiness Revisited'  

“What I ‘discovered’ was that happiness is not something that happens. It is not the result of good fortune or random chance. It is not something that money can buy or power command. It does not depend on outside events, but rather on how we interpret them.

Happiness, in fact, is a condition that must be prepared for, cultivated, and defended privately by each person.
People who learn to control inner experience will be able to determine the quality of their lives, which is as close as any of us can come to being happy”

“We cannot reach happiness by consciously searching for it. It is by being fully involved with every detail of our lives, whether good or bad, that we find happiness, not by trying to look for it directly.”

Prof. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow, Rider, 2002
