Ahmed / Egype
What is the key to happiness?
My name is Ahmed. I come from Egypt, and my question is, what is the key to happiness?
Which I think is a difficult question to answer, but despite me being an ignorant 24-year-old, I will do my best to answer it. I think first of all, we should, instead of making all this effort to be happy, which happens to be what society generally is talking about nowadays, I think we should focus on being thankful for what we have. I think if you have people in your life that you care about and then they care about you and they're healthy when you wake up every morning, I think that's something that you should absolutely not take for granted. You should be very, very thankful for that.
So I would say try to be more thankful in general for something a bit more practical. I would say oftentimes when I'm concerned about something, some event, it's because there's something that has an outcome that I can't control in the future, and I want a specific outcome to be the outcome that actually happens. And what I would say is we should try to do our best. Look at what we can do to influence the outcome, do our best to influence it, and that should be our goal. I think that is the key to happiness.
