I agree with your message, but the real reason for lack of happiness is cuz some greedy sickos are making way too much money for the rest of us to have any chance at happiness

This is a reupload from Jan 1, 2021 with the title “Four ways to live a better and happier life”.
I watched this when I broke up with my girlfriend and it made me feel a little better. I was lost since I was emotionally dependent on her. I needed to find happiness without having her in my life and this video gave me a bit of clarity.

How can I be happy when I’m constantly stressed about how I’m going to pay my bills? Why should I continue to live when I have no time for the things that make life worth living? My average day consists of getting ready for work, commuting to work, working, commuting home, lying in bed because I’m too exhausted to move, and then falling asleep. What’s the point?

Think about how many people would kill to have the life you have. Be grateful for what you do possess, not for what you don’t. Happiness is a skill, found in small things. Learn to appreciate this and your mindset will blossom.

Let us hope the economists will come up with some new theory which are more human and eco friendly, this GDP based economics of produce more and consume more is harming both humans and nature, let’s think of a new world where we produce what we need and consume what we produce.

Prediction – isn’t it interesting, that the very meaning says, it is already “dicted”. Even if it can mean Before the diction, it still points to a state that you are prepared to know, what you want to know (the question you ask is in a way the answer itself is). Even if you stand blank in mind to know future, the very act of readiness to face is in itself a preparation. So it’s impossible to be “blank” or Zero mind to face Future. Then what’s prediction??? Like naming what you already have in you and may be understanding it with little more Clarity or may be some easing from the predictor! Sounds similar to medical consultation….No wonder, why medical/ health care is the most rich commerce in world now….it has become like a “Soothsayer” type of Woodoo with jargon used selling…!!!

TED | thank you
for Love*
TED | Not only speak | but Actions *
Because,
” Love is not a feeling or an emotion.
Love is seeing and doing what is right.
That is why when a parent disciplines a child it is out of love.
It doesn’t feel good but is right and necessary.
The world has set us up for failure
by selling us lies about love and other things.
Many relationships end
because
the feelings aren’t the same
and so they believe they have fallen out of love.
But their commitment to each other
and their children outweighs the loss of excitement.

I feel like happiness is not based on the four values shown in this video, happiness is very personal to each person.
What you’ve calculated was your own four scoring system of happiness, though generalising that for everyone doesn’t work.

The fact, is cryptocurrency is making financial waves and fighting against poverty in this modern era, and the question traders ask themselves is, if it is the right time to invest ?
Before jumping into conclusion i think you should take a good look at things first. For the past few days the price of XRP has been fluctuating which means the market is currently unstable and you can’t tell if it is going to bearish or bullish. While others still continue to trade without the fear of making loss, other are been patient. It all depends on the pattern with which you trade and also the source of your signal. I would say trading has been going smoothly for me, i started with $9,500 and i have accumulated over $89,600 within 2weeks with the trading strategies given to me by Expert Mr Powell His method are top notch and profitable, obviously he’s the best.
