Why is it Wrong to Make Happiness Your Top Goal?
Making happiness your goal in life is a subjective fact. Yet, many are reluctant to disclose
that happiness is their ultimate concern in life. In that case, you need to understand the
route to your happiness or the means you adopt to achieve happiness and satisfy your
most important goal in life.
Immanuel Kant poses a maxim for attainment of happiness. Kant stresses that the end
universal aim of all rational beings is attainment of happiness.
The underlying fear of making happiness the sole aim in your life stems from the
probability of turning selfish and centered on achieving happiness through any means.
Here you need to distinguish between your means of attaining happiness.
Happiness and success go hand in hand. If you are ready to sacrifice your happiness for
the sake or success of others, then you cannot be happy, as the other person would also
try to sacrifice his happiness for yours. Ultimately, no one is happy.
There is a subtle but clear line of demarcation between pleasure and happiness. Lower
brain centers function to meet the needs of these centers like hunger, touch, thirst, and
others. However, making pleasure the main goal in life makes you addicted to such thrills.
It does not yield happiness. Pleasure also assumes the character of selfishness and at
times, transforms you into a criminal. This is because pleasure is irrespective of any care
for other’s needs or feelings.
However, happiness is on an entirely different strata. The highest brain centers function
towards attainment of higher values in life like truth, love, beauty, and similar others. This
deviates from the normal pleasure-seeking attitude and hence, is away from selfishness.
Therefore, giving brings greater happiness than selfishness. Self-interest at a higher level
provides a balanced parameter of giving to others or giving to self. Here, therefore,
making happiness your prime goal in life does not pose any problems. Hence, you are not
wrong in making happiness your top goal.
Similarly, conscious effort in making happiness your goal is not necessary. Instead,
achievement of other associated goals could lead to happiness. Rather, happiness is an
accepted and welcomed by-product of this occurrence.

nagging anticipation of another daily grind.
You fly through the kitchen with a hasty good morning, grab your cup of coffee and bark at your 3
year old who is reaching for your arms with oatmeal covered fingers. She cries, your wife snaps
and out the door you run to join the safari just as the sun is rising.
