I'm certainly no expert on happiness. I feel like i'm always ice skating on a highwire. But I think one important thing to do is, when things are good, don't be afraid to admit, out loud, that things are good.
I think being on edge and always waiting for the other shoe to fall hampers the enjoyment of the high. For most of us, life is crests and valleys, but while in the valleys, we are used to saying "Oh my god, this is so bad" instead of "Only way to go from here is up!", I notice that in the crests, people tend to not say "Man, things are really GREAT right now!"
I try to make it a habit to point this out fairly often.
