What Is Happiness?

True or False about Happiness:

-Research shows that most people are relatively unhappy.

-Wealthy people are more likely to be happier than those who are not.

-People who have children are happier than people without children.

-Healthier people are happier.

All of the above are FALSE.

The above statements are all reasonable and widely believed but they are not supported by research to be true.

Writers, social scientists and the general public seem to believe that people around the world are dissatisfied and unhappy yet scientific studies show the vast majority of people – even those who are poor or disabled see themselves as fairly happy.

Are you happy?
