Excerpt from the article: " In fact the British Govt has plans to "teach" happiness in schools starting next term! The Govt has been advised to use advertising and marketing techniques to sell happier behavior".
Times Life conducted a survey among 17 to 45-year-olds in the cities of Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai and Pune. When asked what makes them happy, 31 per cent of the women replied family, 29 per cent admitted that their jobs gave them more happiness than their family, while others chose options like travel, sex and giving happiness to someone else.
Why do a large majority of people worldwide report that they are quite happy with their lives?
What makes us Happy? Is happiness driven/ more influenced by external conditions or personal disposition/personality?
Can happiness be acquired from synthesized packaged deals like by self-help books and self styled Gurus?
Can we categorize happiness as emotional, spiritual and materialistic? And further grade it.
Or happiness is just an emotion or feeling, which makes you relaxed or eased out. In other words Happiness is what you make up your Minds to be.
