3. With whom do you share responsibility for your own happiness?
It is easy to get lulled into
a sense that happiness is an individual pursuit. Nothing could be further from
the truth. You are connected to other people in a complicated web of loyalty,
obligation, generosity, protection, and mutual support. Your own happiness is
not simply a product of your mind, but of your decisions concerning other
people. You can ask support from others to boost your happiness; you can
sacrifice some personal happiness in favor of helping others. Who are the
primary stakeholders in your happiness and how do they affect your moods? What
does this tell you about your own pursuit of happiness?
By simply asking these new
questions you will redirect your attention and take stock of your own happiness
in a different way. We hope that the very act of questioning wakes you up to an
invigorated sense of pursuit of happiness. We recommend taking five (5) full
minutes aside and actually thinking or writing answers to these questions in
detail. We would love to hear from you about how asking these questions affects
you. Please drop us a line or post to our Facebook site.

Hope you enjoyed these questions.
Thank you trying to improve your life satisfaction, Andrea T. Goeglein, PhD
