The Apparent Wealth Of Other People

Money cannot buy happiness, but there is a new kind of association found between money and our perception towards it: comparison with other people's wealth.

Wealth Is Relative

Conventional wisdom states that relationships and experiences produce happiness, not just money. This thought process, prevalent for decades, is busted by new research, which says that happiness is dependent upon what we think we have as compared to others, and not how much they have.

Happiness, success and wealth are not individualistic or personal, but is a broader, collective pursuit based on our own perception for other people.

Four Types of Well-Being

Optimizing one’s positive emotions, and denying the reality of their negative experiences.

Having a generally negative view of themselves and the world.
Having a generally positive and empathetic view of the world.

The Real Meaning Of Happiness

Being happy means more than feeling good. True happiness comes from handling challenging and adverse situations, while collaborating and building lifelong bonds with the people in our lives.

A collective thinking process, where the good of all is considered leads to a level of happiness that cannot be attained by being selfish or self-concerned.
