You could fly to america, have a better diet, be less anxious and stressed.
You could even go beyond these things and invest in some kind of recreational hobby.
I agree except with the bolded word. Correction: money would make me even happier
Do you think it's possible your high levels of happiness have decreased your motivation for earning money?
If you're extremely happy being in your situation I imagine there's less motivation for change.
I imagine it would also prevent drug use, if you're already very very happy there'd be no need to chase much of an extreme outside stimulus. Or is it more complicated?
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
