I happen to believe that good writing and being happy in life are not mutually exclusive. (I have to believe this, because otherwise I would be doomed to be a bad writer, and that would make me unhappy.)
This post is wordy – you can skim – but it’s a useful pointer to what psychologists who study happiness have found about things you can do to improve your happiness. A surprisingly large proportion of our happiness is able to be changed by these techniques (I forget the exact figure, but it’s tens of percent), so even if you’re a naturally unhappy person, there are things you can do to improve your experience of life.
