i guess Im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the password. I would love any help you can offer me
@Easton Benson I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Just proves that bad choices can have long term consequences. Eg: having child with inadequate man for Fear of being alone VS working on self-love and integrity until you’re good enough for the right man to ENTRUST with protecting your future generations. Kids miss out on their perfect father and degrade the chances of success of the bloodline becuse their mom won’t wait for the perfect guy or be to messed up to attract him anyway. Choices = consequences. Make better choices and you’ll be happier.
Another mistake: people know very well that they will have all this mundane issues in California AND in the place they are living now. BUT California has a PLUS: wonderful climate and landscape! That's why they choose California.
There's something called hedonic adaptation meaning over time, you adjust to a new baseline of living and things like better climate become irrelevant.
I enjoyed the video 21:34... 34:22... Don't trade adding a mile on your commute for another square foot in your home.. 45:40... Remember episodes in life that have an amazing moment... 50:00... Nature doesn't care if you're happy... You have to outmaneuver your brain, which says survive and reproduce....(survival and longevity are primitive values, do away with reproduction and longevity, in fact do away with survival)

Well, based on this happiness data and his mom, I am screwed. But it explains why I'm miserable: I am NOT married, make very little money and have two little kids. Oh lord....😢😥

@@ramraghuwanshi2562 the reality is most women have unrealistic expectations for the partner they want. Something like 80% of women in the won't date men under 180cm when only 15% of men are over this height in the US.
Wait a minute! If you ask people in California if they are happy living there and they affirm it - then there is no science in the world proving them wrong! This is absurd. Happiness is a mental state. You cannot convince people that they are unhappy if they feel that they are.
He means if you were to assess the well being of Californians vs other via self-reported psychometric tests, they're equal but if you ask them if they think they're happier, they'll say yes.
Not only is Dan Gilbert a great lecturer, but he is also such a great speaker~
He is terrific FUN. I am enjoying first listen ...

Where are the references for these studies?

So, basically, of you're having a rough day, you can think "It will get better"and it will be scientifically probable.
It will just get better.

This is funny
This video is such a yo-yo effect. I have to watch it a couple of times to understand it.
If it doesn't really matter wouldn't you end up homeless in the end? Nobody's happy with that outcome.
So parents love their kids to resolve a cognitive dissonance issue? That’s super interesting
