Happiness :-)

This is the holy grail we are in quest of most of our lives.The key to human life ,meaning of us being on earth.I recently came across this article where "Gurus" keep sessions on happiness and how to attain it!!!Now how will a guy unknown to us,just by his speech motivate us??Do you think these sesssions on happiness,positive attitude help?For me they just dont work.Make me more cynical towards them.There so called gurus seem to be minting money based of people's ignorance.But despite their non-effectiveness,they are in rage nowadays.But ultimately its us who decide whats best for us,not these sessions.
