Happiness doesn't depend on any external conditions; it is governed by our mental attitude. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling. If we could see ourselves as others see us, we would probably change our attitude. In life, the only two things you can control are your effort and your attitude. I'd rather be optimistic and wrong than pessimistic and right. A great man is hard on himself; a small man is hard on others. You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm. If you think you're going to win, it doesn't mean vou're going to win. If you think you're going to lose, you will lose.
