Simplified Meaning:

Happiness comes from feeling proud of what you've done and enjoying how you got there. Think about building a Lego set. As you put the pieces together and see your creation take shape, you feel excited and happy. It's not just having the finished model that makes you smile; it's the fun and challenge of putting it together piece by piece. In life, this means you’re often happiest when you work hard on something and see the results. It could be painting a picture, learning a new skill, or even planting a garden. The process of creating or achieving something can be thrilling and deeply satisfying. So, to feel happier, find activities that let you make or achieve things, and enjoy the journey of doing them just as much as the end result.
