It might be tempting to think that if you were able to get more things done in a day that you would be happier, but the truth is that it's not about what you do that brings happiness, but why you do it. 

​

Stopping and assessing the life you're living helps you to know the real reason you're unhappy and what needs to change so that you can shorten that to-do list and spend your time and energy doing what really matters to you with those you love the most.
