Dreams and goals are important because they help us measure(衡量)progress—you don't care if you're getting closer to Rome unless you are trying to get to Rome. But progress, not meeting a goal, is what brings true happiness. In 2011, researchers studied the day­to­day well­being of 238 workers at seven companies. They found that satisfaction is not from big wins, but from the progress in meaningful work. Other researchers have found that progress always beats achievement when it comes to happiness. It seems that humans are often excited about improvement. For example, my goal is to save $10，000, but what makes me happy is that I save more this week than last week. To work towards a big goal in the hope of getting happiness is sometimes, unexpectedly, to set yourself up for unhappiness. Some researchers have argued that when a goal is a true end for progress, the sudden stop of moving forward can lead to a feeling of emptiness(空虚). As a friend told me, “I always thought there would be no better feeling than the day I saw I had a No.1 New York Times best seller. And when it finally happened, I felt nothing.” Worse than feeling nothing, you might have a little depression(沮丧)in the days after a big achievement like winning a prize. One explanation for these problems has to do with dopamine(多巴胺), which gives us a sense of pleasure when we expect a happy ending. Dopamine rises before you achieve a goal and falls afterward. However, when we focus on the process(过程)and the progress we make, we find that our attitude towards goals changes. We begin to see each step as a learning experience, and we learn to celebrate the small wins. This _____ leads to a more positive outlook on life and can finally lead to greater happiness. By enjoying the process and celebrating the progress, we can feel a sense of satisfaction. So, next time you find yourself focusing on the end goal, remember that true happiness lies in the progress you make along the way.
