If there's one common thing we all strive to have in life, it's happiness; an overall sense of fulfillment and content with the things we do. Probably the oldest question in the book is: How do we obtain this so-called happiness? Well, here are some easy ways to make sure you reach that happiness you're looking for.

1. Spend hours on your appearance.

Go ahead, wake up at 6 am just to put on makeup endorsed by the Jenners or Kardashians. Their life seems glamorous so maybe if you look like them, you'll have their happiness.

2. Buy a super luxurious car.

Your insurance premium is through the roof and you had to skip rent this month but hey, at least a nice car equals happiness right?

3. Take snapchats of your super fun night.

You're drunken sing alongs to rap you don't know the words to are super impressive, also thanks for showing us how much you drank! You'll instantly be happy when everyone you talk to knows how hammered you got off of those four shots. But you sure looked happy doing it.

4. Wear the most glamorous outfit.

You probably look like a clumsy giraffe, those heels may be killing you and that sweater might be itchy as hell but at least you'll be happy.

5. Hang out with a huge group of people.

That girl is a compulsive liar, that one is fake and will probably stab you in the back and that guy is cheating on your best friend, but we all know, quantity over quality.

6. Eat a handful of food a day.

You're probably starving but limiting your food consumption will limit your bloating, making you look skinnier which will definitely make you happier. What even is "hangry?"

7. Fail tests.

Getting straight A's is over-rated. If you fail, no one will label as a nerd and you'll be popular! Happiness is yours.

8. Spread yourself thin.

Sign yourself up to cover any possible shift, volunteer for everything and take care of everyone's dogs. The busy, stressed out ones are always the happiest.

9. Do something illegal.

Everyone loves the edgy risk-taker. Commit a crime and everyone will instantly think you're cool so you'll gain happiness from your popularity. Want to ensure everyone will think you're the coolest? Partake in some grand larceny or maybe even arson!

10. Get blackout drunk.

If everyone is talking about how drunk you got the day after and telling you what happened because you can't remember a thing, I'm betting you're probably really happy.

11. Stop.

These are all things people do to make it seem like they're happy. In reality you will probably end up being an alcoholic criminal with no real friends. Good luck happy hunting!
