It sounds to me like you’re assuming that one path to happiness is best and because of that, are missing the fact that many people are happy with their jobs and lives.
I don’t think the journey is more important than the end here. “The end” is being happy. If you can simply exist and be happy, that’s going to be more satisfying than aggressively pursuing the path you believe leads to happiness.
Looking at happy people and telling yourself it’s a facade is a really bad idea.
- halfjoking 7y agoYou're right that some people are genuinely happy with their jobs/lives working for someone else. Actually that might be the vast majority of people. That's not for me though - like I said if I was rich I'd still be working 60+ hour weeks. I think other people would spend more time with family/friends in that scenario?
