Disappointment and bitterness or the mask of happiness | Bahareh Afshari | TEDxOmidWomen

Did you know that if you make happiness your ultimate goal, it might do you more harm than good? Granted, it sounds like an unanswerable dilemma, but this is the phenomenon known as the "happiness paradox." Although it seems that, like any other goal, if we pursue happiness with all our heart we will eventually reach it one day, but the truth in this particular case is a bit more complicated. Simply put, happiness is not just a check box in our daily goal notebook.
One of the keys to happiness, ironically, is to stop trying to be happy. Co-founder of WIM design and construction studio This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
