2. What is Happiness
❖ Happiness is about our lives as a whole: it includes
the fluctuating feelings we experience everyday
but also our overall satisfaction with life. It is
influenced by our genes, upbringing and our
external circumstances - such as our health, our
work and our financial situation. But crucially it is
also heavily influenced by our choices - our inner
attitudes, how we approach our relationships, our
personal values and our sense of purpose.

11. Research on Happiness
❖ The research shows that we need a change of
priorities, both at the societal level and as
individuals. Happiness and fulfilment come
less from material wealth and more from
relationships; less from focussing on
ourselves and more from helping others; less
from external factors outside our control and
more from the way in which we choose to
react to what happens to us.

13. Our happiness is not set in
stone
❖ Although our genes influence
about 50% of the variation in
our personal happiness, our
circumstances (like income and
environment) affect only about
10%.
❖ As much as 40% is accounted
for by our daily activities and
the conscious choices we
make. So the good news is that
our actions really can make a
difference.
