> Acceptance is basically the one and only key to happiness is it really happiness if you just "tricked" yourself to it? If you just changed your goals to something else when you realize you cannot achieve your originally planned goals, is it really "winning"? And if you give up on your dreams, and accept your current circumstances, is that just called despair rather than acceptance?

What is the point of "winning"? Are you sure that your goals and desire to win are not things that society "tricked" you into believing are worthwhile or important?

How can you tell that you've "tricked" yourself into being happy, rather than just "started" being happy?
