To all those who answered - are you really sure whatever you mentioned, actually makes you happy? And not it is what you think makes you happy?
Not trying to be a wise ass here - just curious how people know what makes them happy. Asking because I have a hard time answering OP's question
- tonyedgecombe 8y agoInterestingly you will get a completely different answer if you ask people how happy they are with their car compared to asking them how happy they were with their morning drive to the office.
- nadezhda18 8y agowell, not sure about others, but for myself, I know what makes me happy after paying attention to my feelings I have after doing various stuff and reflecting on the circumstances in which I have had them. I do it pretty often. Sometimes, though, I do fall into a trap of mixing up causality and correlation. I may feel happy after talking to someone... and only after concluding a thorough analysis of my feeling and the timeline, I may realize that the fact of _finishing_ the talk with that person makes me happy and not the talk itself 8-( )
