Understanding the Happiness Formula #shorts

We all want to be happier. Countries now are trying to use a barometer to measure how happy the citizens are. But until this book, there's no way to measure happiness. This is the first time you can quantify happiness backed by the literature. The World Happiness Report is just released now. But you know how they are finding out? They just ask thousand people in each country, how satisfied with your life are you? And when you look at it, what they are doing is just ask how satisfied are you? They want you to imagine what the best possible life is and the worst possible life is. And then you can choose anywhere from zero. And it's called the country ladder. But you know, it's very seriously flawed because some people with eastern culture, it is ingrained in them that when you are self assessing yourself, be modest. In the west, it's not unusual for people to be boastful. And there are people who see this as a patriotic question. They are not measuring happiness, they are measuring how people feel about their country. Happiness is an individual merit. So your positive emotions and your negative emotions in ratio, we are measuring the sources of your positive emotions and your hunger is the sources of your negative emotion. That's what this is about.
