We seek to know ourselves and others, to belong and to be free, We accept what we can and change what we must.

Happiness, on the other hand, is often the result of having hope. When we believe that good things are possible, we are more likely to feel happy and content in the present moment. Hope gives us a sense of purpose and direction, which are essential components of a fulfilling life.
In essence, hope and happiness are two sides of the same coin. They both stem from a positive outlook on life and a belief in the possibility of a better future. Cultivating hope can lead to greater happiness, as it allows us to see the beauty and potential in the world around us, even in the face of adversity.

This for me means that having hope means that you put in all the desired effort and it's not just wishful thinking but something you can be at least certain will turn out well (even when it won't sometimes). This brings a sense of fulfillment. For example, now that you put in the required effort, say in an assignment, you are not stressed about it and you are awaiting a positive outcome. For me, that's happiness as a result of hope.
I think I agree to this the author already explained in the book

Constant and obsessive goal seeking and not enjoying the summit, would lead to burnout, which one should be wary of.
