Self-care alone was never going to solve the happiness equation.

- Click to Lock Slider

The article from Fortune's Well section, published on May 20, 2025, titled "Happiness Is Not a Choice," argues that the notion of choosing happiness oversimplifies the complex nature of human emotions and experiences. It emphasizes that external factors such as socioeconomic status, health, and life events significantly influence one's level of happiness, rather than it being a mere decision. The piece highlights research indicating that while individuals can engage in practices that enhance their well-being, such as mindfulness and gratitude, these are not guaranteed to result in happiness. The article also critiques the self-help industry for promoting the idea that happiness is solely an internal choice, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy and failure among those who struggle to feel happy despite their efforts. Ultimately, the article advocates for a more nuanced understanding of happiness that acknowledges both personal agency and the impact of external circumstances.
