If you are open to the possibility to go against society's norms:
1. A brief history of humankind: This opens your mind to the possibility that maybe our society is not as good as you think. What if the foundation that our society is built on is wrong?
2. A guide to the good life: Perhaps your pursuit of success, comforts, and convenience is grounded on the wrong foundation. And as a result, a false sense of happiness.
Then you might realize that core of your happiness starts with the people you love most (parents, kids, childhood friends, etc). From there, you can treasure friends (or coworkers or whatever) who support and appreciate your priorities and keep these people close to heart.
