The Book of Daniel Nettle and 'a compendium of interesting experiments, testing, testing, and scientific findings that show that sometimes the eternal pursuit of happiness' makes people to do things and even to base their lives on things that happiness' have nothing to do. And this becomes a chimera, sometimes making us cynical and disillusioned. How
now argue psychologists and philosophers all over the world as we see in those around us, the true happiness', the enduring, is produced in our lives when we find something, a direction, a goal that has a profound meaning for us, that all'autorelizzazione bring us: a purpose in life that makes us strive for more and more 'in the' with passion.
The author defines this personality 'as autotelic, a person who does not need entertainment, comfort, external rewards (like money and recognition of others) or' of material possessions, but they will be considered a model for the producers of happiness' which is also elusive. Only few people can Unfortunately, finding a purpose in life so high, do not need external levers to move forward.
has' created a vicious circle thus giving rise all'ipermaterialismo, many of which today are prisoners. I take a new object, the machine Nuon, the new coat, 'cause my life to be' little satisfaction, 'cause I want to feel happy and accepted. The price to pay and 'top: after a few hours, in fact, the pleasure of buying and vanishes when it is replaced by a sense of guilt, it must come to terms with life without direction and with a bank account more and more' lean . The Pursuit of Happyness 'illusory' such as the one that pushes to many drugs of any kind, but in this case, the "bang" of pleasure is replaced by a vacuum to be filled. To self-destruction. Another trap 'that always compare our happiness' with that of others, usually based on possessions, status, recognition (which do not lead to happiness'!). it also creates a vicious circle in this case, a run in circles, aimlessly, where all compete against all, without purpose and where everybody loses.
But then, how to be happy? Find a deeper purpose in life, 'surely the first thing. Who want to be? As I want to be remembered? What would I do all my life, without being paid? Above all, remember that they are not the events that define our lives, but the attitude with which we handle and respond to these events. If victimized, we will live as victims. If we get the opportunity 'also in trouble', as people grow, and we'll be 'happy. The control of their lives and 'another indicator of happiness': if I do something I love, I will be 'more' happy. It seems trivial, but then why 's so few do? Find what 'that you would really free for life, for its intrinsic value, and' a great recipe to happiness' lasting. Another confusion that the person does and 'between what we want (desire) and what she likes. Leads to the desire to eat that cake, even if we are unhappy in our body, buy the thing, even if we feel guilty: that 'we like, you may simply read a book. Much more 'economical with many more' happy 'intrinsic, although unfortunately, much less trendy.
The book explores the effects of drugs on the person, imitating an ephemeral pleasure that is not 'reliable bearer of happiness'. A natural drug today and 'work: all work harder', for more 'hours, but often without a profound purpose:' cause I do it? If I do only for the salary, my life will be 'a race for survival, if I do' cause I love it, will not work 'a day in my life, and I will' definitely more 'self-satisfied and happy. Light Reading and important for our personal development and to combat some mental trap. Happy reading!
