On my mirror I have a note with three lines (which I should remember to read every morning).

Be Here Now.
Self Control in All Things
I AM

Regarding the unsatisfactory part, which I appreciate from the Buddhist philisophy, I am still drawn to this quote by Sharon Salzbert (b. 1952), an American Buddhist Teacher

"The difference between misery and happiness depends on what we do with our attention."

Peace.
