And it doesn't you just nailed it , it , and that's the biggest thing is that , you know , success doesn't lead to happiness . Happiness is the greatest success and happiness leads to traditional forms of success , right ? So you're absolutely right about that .
It's a state of no mind . Ultimately , that the happiness that we seek in things people place as activities and objects is something that we inherently and intrinsically and innately are . But we never stop thinking long enough to recognize it and realize it .
So it's really four main things , happy activities , right ? So that means creating a list of happiness is things that you love , feel inspired by that help you to feel alive with very little time energy , effort , make a list , right ? And do everything you can to spend more time doing those things .
So the real master key and the ultimate cheat code is being able to see through the sort of tricks that the mind plays all the time , not intentionally and get to a place where you can simply enjoy just being even in the midst of a conversation , even when you're just swiffer where you're not always lost in discursive thinking , obsessive compulsive thoughts , not always living in the past , not always living in the future or projecting the future , you know , where you're really just tapped into and , and turned on to not only the present moment but presence itself your own awareness , right ? And in that awareness is perfect happiness , it is perfect happiness . So the ultimate cheat code is that I try to save that for the end because people always think that's impossible .
So , so , so I would say that to that extent . Yes , actually , right , the first requirement of being happy is being alive . Um And so now that being said there are both sort of happiness producing support , support of kind of biases , heuristics built into the brain .
