    I think money has many things to do with happiness. You said: "Money has to do with comfort, security and freedom". My question is: how can one be happy if he's in an uncomfortable situation, lives in a dangerous and unsecured place, and is not free?! So, I believe maybe money does not necessarily make you happy, but, not having money definitely makes you unhappy and miserable.

      If you have the leisure time and resources to be watching this video, you are richer than the majority of people on this planet. I'm clearly one of these people and I'm pretty damned unhappy. By reflection I'd say I'm unhappy because I am VERY self critical and am generally a pessimist. The majority of my family is VERY poor (from a developing country) but my parents happened to make all the right moves in at all the right times and now we are pretty well off and live in a developed country. Regardless I'm a lot less happy than the majority of my poor relatives.

      having a relative understanding of what others have is also helpful. when my wife was volunteering as an EMT she saw the inside of a lot of people's homes, and saw how small their common rooms were. we have a large dining and living area, and a cozy kitchen where the 6 of us usually eat together.
      she had been unhappy with our house until she saw how so many others were living. and she'd been discontented with herself before realizing that wherever she goes, everyone tells her how nice our kids are.

    most of my unhappiness is due to my procrastination. towards everything. I don't study for that test until the night before, I didn't tell that girl what I felt about her until she got a boyfriend, I am not focusing on my future right now, even though I know I should.
    and also , I always wonder "what if I'm rejected?" or "what if she says she doesn't like me?" these kinds of things.
    I am trying to improve, little by little. hope it doesn't take long until I have myself under control, If I might say it that way...

      Have you tried befriending someone who needs guidance or a mentor? That has proven to give one a sense of joy. Maybe try helping an elderly family member. In other words, seek to help those less fortunate than you and hopefully that action will jumpstart your road to happiness.

    I have been following your videos for quite some time now. While all your videos are awesome, this is probably the best till date. You explained such a complex thing as human happiness in such a lucid easily understandable manner. I have been going through some really unhappy times of late and have been searching in the Internet for ways to lead a happier life. This video of yours is God sent for me. Three things that I liked are 1. If we are not happy when we are poor, we are not going to be happy when we are rich 2. If we are stuck in a screwed up job, don't quit. Rather just hold on and try to get higher education, try to start own business. 3. We don't pursue happiness, we create it. This is what my dad has been telling me since I was a child. He says "If you can't be happy here and now, you can't be happy anytime, anywhere". This video really inspired me, particularly when I am feeling down and was about to give up fighting any more. Thanks a lot. I sincerely pray that God bless you!

    People are unhappy because society is so demanding. If a guy is overweight and short and is deprived of intimate/deep social interaction he then becomes insecure and sad. He now he has to work to get in shape in hopes to attract people into his life. What im saying is that if it were ok to be short/overweight/poor etc. People would be happy as is. But they cant because society says you have to be fit, have money, be tall etc. Being happy means trying to fit in even when you cant.

    I’m poor
    So I don’t have enough money
    So I’m not comfortable in life
    And I feel insecure
    And I’m not free...
    So I’m unhappy
    Which ultimately means that money will make me happy...
    Because once i have money i’m free,comfortable and secure..
    Which will bring me confidence..

    i agree with the number 10 that says "you live in the past and continue to go over it " but comon how can you say that you can't expect other people to give you happyness i can give you a lot of examples of this, im happy when a friend sees me on the street and greets me, im happy when i take care of my friends and they recognize me, im happy when my family smiles at me and the list goes on.. Happyness doesnt exist if we go by rules because the human nature doesnt allow it like you said " i want this and then i want that " and still you can't find the pieces to fill the holes that life made on you, but there are moments if there is a way of being trully happy the purest feeling it would be "Love" being it phisical, emotional or any other thing that you wanna call it for me that is when a man or a woman are trully happy when you love yourself, when you love your family, when you love your friends and in the end it doesn't matter any of your problems because you are trully grateful for every single thing that the world gave you..

    I have the feeling, that I've lost my true friends. Those, who are making me happy. That might be influenced by thinking about everything was better in the past. But I dont think so because they've made me very happy in the past too. I've basically changed school 2014 and graduated this year. I keep thinking now, that I havent used opportunities with my friends. But I was scared often of being rejected and of having the akward moment of being boring and not doing something cool, which is why I didnt spent as much time with them as I would have wanted. I changed school back then because I was being bullied, but now I keep thinking, that it was wrong to change and that I should have walked and gotten through all of that instead of being a "pussy". I just cant look into the future and keep thinking about how many times I've fallen apart and how often I haven't used my time instead of looking in front.

    As a Christian, I really think the church should start to give more hard advice like this besides "Trust God/Pray about it/God has you here for a reason/etc." There is almost a sense that if you aren't where you want to be, you SHOULDN'T do anything, as taking steps would somehow in some way be going against "God's Will" and all that. Personally, I'm tired of it. Thanks for laying this all out. I think another thing that leads to unhappiness is something I do all the time - over analyze everything, and always coming away with a negative conclusion.

    Happiness is achieved on the inside but a lot of us look to the outside. Case and point. Most of my life I always looked to partners, jobs and materials for happiness. I'd meet someone new and be happy for a few months but then realize something was missing. I'd get a new job and the same exact thing would happen. New car, house, tv, etc. all the same. I finally took some time to myself and worked on me and what I felt was important to me. What I really enjoyed doing. Then things started to change. I started meeting friends and love interests that were much different than I was used to. They didn't make me overly excited but definitely made me fulfilled. I got a job offer that seemed too good to be true, but it was true. I stopped caring so much about material things. I can't say I feel happy all the time, but I sure am a lot happier than I was just a few years ago. It's all done from the inside.

    It's amazing how many people think that money brings happiness rather than realizing that happiness is an internal feeling first regardless of your conditions. You can go to the Philippines, or some other poverty infested country, and you will find children - who have very little opportunity in life when compared to American children - who are running around having a blast while American children stare, like zombies, at their electronic gadgets and sigh like they are about as bored as one could possibly be.
    Even so, there are plenty of fools who believe that happiness is determined by your conditions.

      Life in the Philippines is cheap, the weather is good, there is little govt control and there is plenty of food and sex even for the poorest of the poor. You can live poor without paying taxes and still have all the basic necessities. It is also a very religious society, with little discrimination and resentment, very communal, into friendship, and peace loving. Their culture, economic and social systems are superb. In the US, there are high taxes, high rents, cold weather, harsh government control and sex is in short supply - for men at least. There is mistrust, loneliness and unfriendliness everywhere. So, it's not just the poverty of the Philippines that creates happiness, but the fact that their society supplies you with all you need even on the lowest rungs of society, whereas in the US, only the rich can enjoy such a lifestyle.

    I'm writing a book on finding lasting happiness, so I'm familiar with the topic :-) Your video is well worth a watch!
    Regarding the item about having a pet: The significance of this is that humans seek a sense of "connection." This is true even when their thought system's reaction to emotional wounds results in defensive behavior to keep "harm" at bay (e.g., emotional barriers, emotional distancing in the belief that this will prevent a future heartbreak). A person may take a step out of this protective/guarded/distancing state with a pet. because a pet is not judgmental, does not question one's thoughts and actions, and often exhibits what one interprets as affection. So in essence, this feel more like "unconditional love" than what the person might have experienced with other humans. Pets can also be more willing recipients of expressions of affection, rather than "not now" or "I'm busy" etc.
    Your closing statement is indeed a "Holy Truth". One either creates their own happiness, or they forever seek it, believing they'll find it from external sources. Change your thoughts, change your life!

So l'm her Carer getting the Carer Pension and Carer Allowance from Centrelink ( Social security ) .

I stopped seeing them and stopped taking the meds. Was a complete waste of time. They all told me the same things, things l don't wanna do, like for example leave home , as much as l'd like to have my own home, l couldn't do it, no way l'm gonna dump my mum at a mental hospital or a nursing home, even if she does Schizophrenia and Arthritis in her legs and can't walk at times. She only wants me to look after her, not strangers.

    I've watched a few videos already, and my overall opinion is that they're well-researched, analyse multiple aspects of a phenomenon, which is good, and show your general intelligence. I truly enjoy the frequent sarcasm;)

    Not sure why I am watching this. I am happy and I know what makes me happy and not.

    Thank you for not filling your channel with bullshit, I really appreciate it.
    From the voice and editing I judged this video by its cover. (Comparing it to bright side)
    You guys have great content and your female voice has such a charming unique character (isn't robotic and sounds like she actually cares about what she's talking about) 👍👍

    "Reality check, you unique snowflake. The world doesn't owe you shit."
    These are the most sober, wonderful words I've herd from a youtube channel in a LONG time. You just became a personal favorite.

    Wow, I want to hug whoever made this video. Personally, I think the biggest contributor is the expectation versus reality. I think you can entertain yourself through media, but being able to distinguish what's real and what's not is important.
