Page 77. Anticipate the pleasure. In every instance of joy, whether real or not, the common denominator is the expectation of a new possibility. Consider this for a moment.

In the book
Stop asking "should I be happy now or later?" and ask instead, "how can I be happy now and in the future?" Anticipate the good. There is a particular joy available every single morning — the joy of waking up and wondering what the day will bring, the sheer fact of countless possibilities opening simply because you are alive. Children live there naturally. — Enjoy the Flight (Living/Balance/Happiness/Passion)
