Episode Highlights
What Does Happiness Look Like?
- There are feelings of happiness we experience in the moment when something good happens to us. This can look like an improved mood and a wonderful memory that you store for later.
- Happiness can also be seen long-term in individuals who choose happiness each day.
How Does Happiness Happen?
- There is a release of chemicals like dopamine and serotonin in the brain.
- We can experience this in the moment and when we look back on the happy memories we’ve made.
How Do You Make Happiness a Habit?
- Stop chasing the high of those chemical bursts. Short-term happiness is often short-lived. Searching for it constantly will create a dangerous cycle.
- Recognize the present by practicing gratitude and taking an inventory of the things you already have in your life.
- Build your confidence. Self-esteem plays a huge role in your happiness. If you create a history of not letting yourself down and continuing to make decisions in your own best interest, you’ll experience heightened self-esteem.
5 Powerful Quotes
- “We are all trained to believe that our primary objective should be happiness.”
- “Happiness is not a destination we can reach or something we can find if we search for it.”
- “It’s not a destination, it’s a choice.”
- “But the reality of happiness is more like a happiness drip. It’s slow, steady, controlled, and sustainable. It happens as a by-product of our actions rather than as an outcome itself.”
- “The truth is, happiness looks a lot more like the life you already have than it does the life you’ve always dreamed about. “
