Short micro-class by Brian Johnson reframing Thomas Jefferson’s phrase “pursuit of happiness” as a directive to practice happiness (analogous to the practice of law/medicine). The host gives quick actionable prompts (gratitude, "rock your bliss" uplines) and closes with a promotion for his free Optimizer newsletter and a paid Optimal Living membership offering philosopher's notes and classes.
You're listening to Optimize with Bryan Johnson. More wisdom in less time.
Hey guys, what's up? This is Brian. This morning we've got a quick video. We're going to talk about Thomas Jefferson's practice of happiness. So we all know that Jefferson told us we all have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But did you know that back in the day, pursuit of something did not mean chasing after it? No, it did not. It meant to practice it. So for example, we had the pursuit of medicine, the practice of medicine, the pursuit of law, the practice of law, and. And the pursuit of happiness. The practice of happiness. So keep this in mind. Don't chase after happiness. Practice it how? Well, there's a million ways we talk about all these in these different videos. Rock your bliss uplines. Choose gratitude. Insert your favorite truth here, here and here. Practice happiness Thomas Jefferson style. Alright, Hope you dug it. Have an awesome day. See ya.
