Sadly, you must have other goals besides personal happiness. But given that you only live once, why would you prefer a different goal?

- jessriedel 10y agoBecause it's selfish and boring.
- ljw1001 10y agoI think if you read the original, the choices discussed were personal happiness vs money and status. Choosing happiness in that context is wise, not selfish. Also, I think you're confusing happiness with the pursuit of pleasure. Most of the science suggest that happiness requires both enjoyment and a greater purpose. Apparently you're unselfish and deep; maybe you could be less judgmental, too.
