"من كان لديه معرفة ضئيلة بطبيعة البشر ويسعى إلى السعادة عن طريق تغيير أي شيء عدا مزاجه فإنه سيضيع حياته في جهود عقيمة."
— Samuel Johnson

Simplified Meaning:
Trying to find happiness by changing things around you, like your job, home, or even other people, usually doesn't work. Happiness comes from within, from changing your own attitude and outlook on life. Imagine someone who is always unhappy at work. They might think, "If I just get a new job, I'll be happy." But when they get a new job, they still feel unhappy. The problem isn't the job, but their own negative mindset. By working on their own attitude—learning to appreciate what they have and finding joy in small things—they can find true happiness. So, instead of focusing on external changes, people should focus on improving their inner self.
