I like mountain biking, Jeffrey Dahmer liked munching on people's legs.

The older I'm getting the more it seems like this is the true fountain of life. Something that will keep you going no matter what happens in your life and wake you up with bright eyes in the morning.

So instead of listening to a Doctor from Oxford University, who has obviously studied this extensively, we should listen to you?

Why not? He seems a bit happier than the Doc.
In all seriousness, critique the ideas, not the source.

You should listen to yourself, maybe for you that means listening to someone else or maybe it doesn't.
We are quite a finnicky species and trying to shoehorn everyone into the same mold is probably not a recipe for great happiness.
Just accept that people are different, you won't find happiness following someone else's rulebook and do the things that matter to you. Accept those things as your source of happiness.
If your sources of happiness are not compatible with society in general do them where you can enjoy them on your own or with a group of likeminded peers.
Do not be concerned about how unique you are. Embrace it.
If you are not unique embrace that too.
Focus on what it is that you really want to do.
Life will be over soon enough.
Stop chasing your happiness and live life. Happiness will follow :)
