What are we doing here ?

Hi!

What are we doing here?
This summer internship. MBA....slogging through the tiring office routine in a strange land. why are we doing this. Why are we compromising with a seemingly undesirable situations in which we have to separate from our families, tolerate our boss' egos (my boss is extremely good in that sense).

We are all doing this in order to achieve Happiness in a not so distant future. All life we hanker for this happiness and never in our life we reach a point where we say "Now its enough. Now I wont suffer anymore in want for more happiness.". We never reach the state of this ultimate happiness. I hope everyone agrees to this.

Now if we logically reflect on the cause of this unsatisfactory feeling, we can come to the conclusion that: we dont know how to achieve happiness ?

To achieve happiness, the logical steps would be:

1. Identify the reasons for our distress/misery.
2. Eradicate them fully.
3. Identify the things which make us happy.
4. Achieve them.
5. Experience ever lasting, never ending bliss.

Instead of sequentially following the first four steps, we end up mixing them and we never reach the final stage.

Think about it, and let me know if you agree or disagree with me.
