Does being too serious make us unhappy?

Does being too serious make us unhappy?

Taking things seriously means that you want to make things happen and are willing to put effort, but when you become excessively serious, you often become ignorant of everything else in your life. 

Sometimes people relate their joy and happiness to achieving one goal in life. They get so overly focused that they miss out on the everyday joys of life. They often keep away from people, avoid sharing a laugh and do not enjoy even the best humour. We need to be focused and concerned about our lives, do our very best and leave the outcome to our life to decide. 

Live every moment with passion and enthusiasm. Put effort, and work on your goal but don't stop living your life. Laughter and fun will not deter you from your goals; instead will refresh your mind and make you more enthusiastic and energetic.
