" I mean wow, " Blankson remarked. " every time I
look at this list, I think 'I want that. I want that in my
life.' "
BARRIERS TO HAPPINESS
The problem is happiness doesn't often feel like
something in our control. It can seem elusive and
fleeting. even if we think we know what will make us
happy in the future, that may never seem to come-
or it may seem dependent on external factors. This
can lead to the belief, " I'll be happy when... (fill in
the blank). "
But research has found that happiness is not just a
feeling of pleasure, Blankson explained. It's also a
practice and a mindset.
" It's actually the pursuit of happiness that causes
the greatest sense of satisfaction, " Blankson said.
" So, we define optimism as the belief that your
behavior matters. "
However, we can't force happiness and optimism on
ourselves. That's disingenuous, it doesn't work, and
it has a name: toxic positivity, Blankson explained.
Toxic positivity directed at others can lead to
feelings of disenfranchisement and not being heard.
rather, coming alongside them, empathizing with
their struggle, and believing in their resilience-
" That's the kind of optimism that's powerful, "
Blankson said.
One paradox of happiness is that it's okay not to be
happy.
" Being happy all the time would be a sickness, "
Blankson said. " The goal is just to turn towards a
little bit more happiness in our lives. "
Another paradox relates to the " fearless " part of
fearless positivity.
