Everyone wants to be happy,but how much people feel happy everyday? Nowadays, people are busy to make money and study. I think all of us are feel pressure. However, this TED talk presents a change in our life.
As shawn said, the happiness is beyond our attitude and cognitive.He is right. Because the method we want to success and happiness is rearwards. Instead of working on that future achievement to making happiness into our lives, we have to change our work close and frame of mind to be happier and more positive. If we will thinking this in a happier and more positive way, indeed, we will actually achieve that success. In other words, our attitude will decision our happiness. Sometimes, I found that is true in my life,if I feel unhappy then I can't focus on other things in that day, I often screw up some important thing in the later. However, if I feel positive at the begin of one day, I always finish my job efficiently, then I felt happier than before. I think this is a benign cycle.
Nowadays, when you open TV or newspaper, you will find there are many tragedy. Bad news always more than good news. It seems like people all like see bad things. However, it's because bad news can grasp our eyes. It's very negative and will affect our life. Actually, we need good news.
If you want be happier, this talk will be a wonderful gift you give yourself and one that can help to a lifetime of happiness. Keep optimism, we will find happy~
