Happiness is often a stance one takes to the world. Short of the times when the pain is all that's real, or the joy unsurpassed, most experience is quite neutral. If I am disposed to like it, then it increases my happiness. If I am disposed to dislike it, decrease. Many times then, we are setting ourselves for disappointment in a situation filled with opportunity. So the more I can learn to be disposed towards enjoying experience, the more my experience will engender enjoyment?
