You might be interested in reading about the hedonistic treadmill, if you haven't already heard of it. Effectively, good things don't make us very happy for very long before we need more.
- projektir 9y agoThe hedonistic treadmill is someone's hypothesis. I am very skeptical that it is actually correct, as working around it seems fairly simple (certain video games are a good example). I would rather we didn't base major social attitudes on someone being convinced that a normal, healthy human wouldn't be able to make themselves happy.
