If by improving one's reality, he means to acquire the circumstances in which one is happy, then that is still a struggle. We know what lowering expectations means, which is never happy.
Happiness is curtailed by the misery we see around up, most of for which we pay taxes to assure it continues. But of course there is joy in working on problems that make the world a better place, which I suppose is improving ones reality. Tricky business, happiness.

when i first heard the statement "Happiness is a decision" i thought that was as farfetched as "love is a decision" but as i gain more experience and often find that people with the least are happier i have come to believe it. No matter what ones situation there is always beauty and miracles to behold to bring joy to one's heart. To give us perspective. Abe Lincoln said 'folks are just about as happy as they want to be.' But why did he always look so sad?
