Happiness is defined as: "The term happiness is used in the context of mental or emotional states, including positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.

We postpone Happiness, thinking that we will be happy after we finish school, buy a house, put money aside, and find the person of our dreams. We often add waiting until we find the perfect job. Waiting through all of these milestones is a mistake. Not working on Happiness could ultimately cause delays in much of what we are waiting for. As well as affect our well-being.
