When he says > You gotta live in the moment and be impulsive to be happy. I get the impression he equates happiness with being thrilled.

  There are countless of studies which link rumination to unhappiness. Being impulsive and in the moment is just the opposite end of rumination, hence is the safest place from unhappiness. Meaning it's also the place to find happiness.

    Being in the moment and being impulsive are quite different things. Being impulsive with money is another thing altogether, and a long way from being zen happy in a present moment.

    You're also somehow trying to equate analysis with rumination. Two very different things.

    Perhaps you're right. True happiness is taking a leap. Off the bridge.
