How to Always Get What You Want

When you don't get what you want, you're unhappy.

We can't always control what we get. But we can usually control what we want.

By wanting only those things that are in our power to get, we avoid unhappiness.

If you want a clean car, or to lose weight, or to read more, then take action and be happy.

If you want to be younger, or want other people to agree with you, or want everyone you meet to be nice to you, then you are setting yourself up for unhappiness.

The solution to this problem is to kill your desire for things beyond your control.
