inherited happiness? — 4 months ago
Sounds like someone just died and left a ton of money, doesn’t it? But no, I actually read an article about inheriting certain genetic factors for being “prone” to finding happiness. I think that while this might be true, finding happiness also depends on your environment. They studied identical twins. Also, they mentioned that those who are hard working and conscientious are the happiest. This goes along with my theory of achieving happiness when you work hard at something, and feel a sense of accomplishment.
Besides, a ton of money like the lottery actually begets more problems than it solves…according to another article, big-time lottery winners die soon afterwards, or wish they had never won the lottery in the first place. Personally, it would be too hard to keep up with the money!
