Re: Happiness

Our brain is a comparator it keeps on comparing all the time. If other people seem to be happier than you, it will declare that you are unhappy and vice versa. The real question to ask is what is happiness? Is it a certain state of mind or feeling of getting fulfilled by the things we desire? Behavioral research shows that people who have money are happier on average than people who are poor.  Is that indicative of people who have money are more authoritative in terms of getting things done or buying them which will make them happy? Maybe so.

So next time, when someone tells you 'Moral of the story is: We are never happy when others are happy. " You need to tell them to make enough money to get the things you want in life. When more happiness is not bad, then why more money is considered bad in the society? Because that's how people are trained in a wrong mindset.
