How Happiness Works

BEING HUMAN MEANS A SIMPLE LIFE WITH GOOD FAITH AND ACTION

How Happiness Works

Few people are happy. Most of the people I

know are neutral or unhappy, and most of the

people I meet sure don’t look happy! Happy

people really stand out, partly because they’re

so rare.

Since hardly anybody does it, it’s easy to

assume that being happy is complicated, or

there’s some secret you have to know, or

maybe you have to be born with a certain

gene.

While people are born with an innate level of

happiness or happiness set point, and

circumstances also influence how happy you

are, you still have the power to make yourself

happier. Surprisingly, 50% of our happiness

levels come from genetics, and only 10% from

circumstances, leaving 40% that we can

control….

_Spirituality

_Altruism

_Perspective

_Humor

_Purpose

These are true virtues. I don’t know any god or

man who looks down on these qualities, and

they are the keys to enjoying life. They can be

yours—that’s what this artical is about.
