We all deserve this in our lives because without it we can feel like nothing is fulfilling, and we’re not living up to our full potential. When we’re not happy, we tend to be a lot more unhealthy and work a lot less efficiently. Not only is this bad for our own mental health, but also the communities around us. Such as when psychologists William James and George Katona became interested in the connection between productivity and happiness. In an article written by them, they state “happiness as pleasant as it is fleeting”.In this article there are many parts that interest me from the beginning all the way down to the end. One part that intrigued me from the beginning was when they wrote about how even though happiness can sometimes be fleeting, “the pursuit of happiness” is one of the main reasons that people live their lives. I think this is important because it can help people see that happiness is something that should be worked for. Even though it’s hard to handle sometimes, there are some people who can feel an emotional high once they accomplish something that’s been making them happy. Another part of the article I enjoyed was when they discussed different ways to make yourself happier. They mention things like watching films, concerts, or even sporting events. I think this is really interesting because it shows there are different ways to feel happy in your life. You do not always have to hold out for a huge accomplishment in order to feel accomplished in your own life. The last part of this article that I found particularly interesting was when they talked about the different types of happiness. They mention that life has more than just one type of happiness to offer us. This made me think about my own life, and how I am living it. For example, I used to live extremely unhealthily because I didn’t feel like my life was going anywhere. Even though it felt like nothing was getting better in my life, there were still plenty of things to be happy about in my own personal world. It took me a while to realize this, but once I did it helped me see what I truly wanted from my own life. One last part of this article that I found very relatable was when they discussed how people’s perception of happiness changes over time. They write that in many cases, “happiness doesn’t follow the curve of life the way deep sadness does. It follows the curve of life because happiness has followed it.” I think this is very true because people don’t realize how much their own perception of happiness has changed until they look back at old snapshots from a new perspective. Overall, “the pursuit of happiness” is one aspect that makes us happy in our lives – physically and mentally – and I think that we should all appreciate this more than we do now. cfa1e77820
