Eh I once heard someone make a distinction that I like between 'what you enjoy' and 'what makes you happy'.

A somewhat boring example is it's unlikely you enjoy doing your university exams, however your state of happiness after completing your degree will be higher than if you had instead done something more enjoyable with your time (e.g. play video games).
