“how? how this PhD professor is so happy and calm and confident”.

  • A person can be talented in a specific job area
  • A person can enjoy working a specific job area
  • There are some jobs that pay well enough to live happily on

There are people, through sheer genetic luck and general luck to be born in the right place and time in history, that they have all three.

I guess I am just a weird person

You're not weird. I think it is rare to have all three. Even someone that has only two will likely be called "unhappy". You are NOT to blame for not having all three. Its just luck.
