A recent Dutch study found that people who scheduled a vacation and then dwelled on it every so often were happier than those who didn’t have an impending vacation. When the vacationers returned, however, their happiness quotient returned to normal—equalling those who didn’t have an upcoming vacation. It appears that anticipation of good things to come can up your happiness. So maybe spreading a few shorter vacations throughout the year or scheduling some long weekends can make you a happier person.
