Have you ever noticed how the things you thought would make you happy…only feel good for a little while?
There's a reason for that—it's called the hedonic treadmill. And most of us are stuck on it.
How do we break free from this endless loop?
By shifting focus. True happiness doesn't come from the next thing on your wishlist—it comes from appreciating what you already have, building meaningful connections, and finding joy in the process, not the outcome.
