The hedonic treadmill is a characteristic associated with happiness where the source of happiness ultimately wanes in its ability to actually make the individual happy. This trait of happiness is most often associated with hedonistic sources of happiness, such as new purchases that first bring an increased sense of well being but eventually lose their luster. As such, the hedonic treadmill is often used as an argument against the hedonic view of happiness. However, this happiness treadmill can also apply to eudaimonia, which suggests that encountering and overcoming challenging situations is one source of happiness. Under this definition, a eudaimonist who receives fulfillment by mastering a new hobby may find less happiness as he or she masters that hobby and the challenge wanes.
