The problem with happiness as a goal is that no one seems to know how to find it. We all say that is what we want but so few seem to achieve it and then it is only temporarily. And when you are happy, we don't seem to notice it, it seems more noticeable by its absence.
My own personal, perhaps cynical, view is that happiness is just a by-product of other things. We can seek satisfaction in particular areas and when we achieve that for the brief period that it lasts, we feel happy. More difficult but still achievable is fulfillment and when we achieve that we tend to feel happy.
