Playtime Comments : [TED] Why are we happy? Why aren't we happy? | Dan Gilbert

Gr*********:

This must be why I don't usually like clothes that I buy myself, and end up wearing clothes that people give me. Making clothes so easily returnable isn't the best way to make customers happy with what they actually bought, I guess.
Also, I agree with XSGAME4U; that sentence (at 18:14) is one of Mr. Gilbert's big points, and if someone is going to write it down or quote it or whatever, they better do it right. REVERSIBLE.

Zu******:

20:40 "When our ambition is bounded, it leads us to work joyfully. When our ambition is unbounded, it leads us to lie, to cheat, to steal, to hurt others, to sacrifice things of real value. When our fears are bounded, we're prudent, cautious & thoughtful. when our fears are unbounded & overblown we are reckless & we are cowardly"

Ma*********:

Ok.......i would love to get in on the intellectual dialogue but i gotta ask
DID ANYONE ELSE HEAR HIM FART AT 9:30?
DUDE DROPPED THE BOMB!!!

Top Comments : [TED] Why are we happy? Why aren't we happy? | Dan Gilbert

ou******:

Very interesting! it proves that happiness is just a state of mind. Thank you for sharing!

Ad*****:

Brilliant. I wake up everyday and spend an hour lying there contemplating and visualising everything I could or should do, then end up doing and achieving nothing. Is your next talk on how we can focus our minds on limiting our many choices?!

si********:

"It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything" - Tyler Durden

Ch***************:

One of the most important videos I will ever watch on YouTube. Thank you.

Ha************:

The moral of this story : iffiness is poison to our happyness

Br**********:

My main take away is the key component that commitment serves in happiness. "Make your decision, you'll never see the other one ever again." When we have a way out or a way to reverse things (a way out of commitment), we give ourselves an unending dilemma. It makes sense how that can add to or even create cognitive dissonance. We'll question not only that decision but our decision making process in general. Cool talk.

Ni*************:

''Grass is always Greener on the other side''

ch***********:

""happiness is synthesized .. don't try to find it somewhere"" like me for saving 20 min of ur life..

mr******:

Happiness = Reality - Expectations

Po***:

This is the best thing I’ve seen in years!! And maybe just what I needed this hour!

An************:

i love this guy! best i've heard in TEDtalks so far

Nh******:

This is one of the best presentation I've seen. And the information is really helpful

Lo*********:

Only 90% of the control group could remember which print they owned?

Sh***********:

When our ambition is bounded, it lead us to work joyfully. When our ambition is unbounded, it leads us to lie, to cheat, to steal, to hurt other people. 

vd*****:

"Happiness is just an illusion caused by the temporary absence of reality. "

T*:

So basically it's as the buddhist teach, to accept the situation

sa*******:

Excellent presentation.

ae*****************:

amazing delivery, oratory

th************:

I love the fact that he mentioned zefrank.

Ad*****:

Brilliant. I wake up everyday and spend an hour lying there contemplating and visualising everything I could or should do, then end up doing and achieving nothing. Is your next talk on how we can focus our minds on limiting our many choices?!

Ze*************************************:

Most basic summary I can make: Constantly searching for happiness is unnecessary because we can create our own happiness. If you have more questions, feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer, or maybe some other YouTube commenter will~^^

Jo***:

gracias por poner los subtítulos dos diálogos después, gracias

Hi***********:

As St Bernard of Clairveaux (sp) was said to have said 'let your conscience be your guide.' Very wisely said. Also St Augustine of Hippo was said to have said, 'Love ...then do as you please.' Another wise remark.

Mu*****:

The difference is not in the quality or legitimacy of the happiness, but the process in which it is produced.

Su******:

:)

ma*****:

This speech was awesome, although I have to look more into it, it conveys very well what I have been "suspecting", you could say that freedom of choice, the ideal of equality, makes people miserable/anxious.

I will encourage another great documentary for you to watch, is called "Status Anxiety"

Dr*********:

@slaughtz One of the most smartest comments I've seen! Happy new year!

Al*****:

What other way to be better...spiritually

Ki******:

This is great. :D

Hi********:

liver and onion's ice cream sounds pretty tasty to me!

tr***********:

this is sooo interesting! amazing...

Na*****:

@maxgunn555 Not at all. The unhappiness of choice comes from the "woulda, coulda, shoulda" of not doing anything, of being lazy. By doing something, even failing outright limits your choices and you are forced to deal with what you have and thus are happy about it.

ps*******:

@SuperFry247
Wisdom can be welcomed in many forms.

Br**********:

@DarkEvilKitsune Right, but I think that everybody who is human has the potential to make good out of bad or whatever fits their needs. A human being simply cannot lose "what it is that can make you happy" - we were created to be happy and enjoy life. My stance is this: Life is what you make of it, and everyone in the world can be happy if they so choose to be.

Kr******:

Haha, you really studied this video didn't you :)

Pa***********:

A Felicidade não está no valor material das "coisas" mas sim no valor que cada um de nós lhe atribui.

RE************:

@psittacid one of the most insightful and disarming rebuttals I have ever read in a Youtube comment/ *hats off to you sir* :)
