I believe one of the main cause for unhappiness is thinking the "magic pill" actually exists.
Imagining life simply as "If this ONE thing happens, then all my problems will go away."
But there is no magic pill, and that ONE thing eventually happening will either fix one of your problem for a very long time, or make all your problems go away for a very short time ; not both.
Just as piling enough small bricks together creates a big house, taking enough small decisions leading to 0.1% improvements eventually makes you ending up where you want to be.
