"I'll be happy once...."
How many times have we heard someone say this or something similar? How many times have we said it ourselves? We'll be happy once.... what? Once we have more money? Have more time? Have a family? Have a partner? Have a child? Have retired?
Happiness should not be a destination. Happiness should be continuous. We should be able to say "I'm happy now, and I want ___________ to help enrich my life." Or at least something to that effect.
It's okay to be happy even when your life is not what you want it to be. Being happy doesn't mean that you no longer need or desire anything more. It just means you're happy. So, it's okay to be happy and want more. You do not have to put aside your happiness until you are where you want to be in your life. Be happy now.
