The Happiness Algorithm
I think that there are different paths to happiness, the difficult part is getting to the trailhead. I don’t think that you can just say, “I want to be happy.” You have to go through the “loopy” science whereby you make observations about what might make you happy, try it out, then if it works keep it, if not, loop back to the start and try again: the happiness algorithm. I think that you have to follow the sequence throughout life to adapt to the constant change that we all experience.
I think CBT is one method that gives you the tools to find the trailhead and therefore gives you agency, but first you have to choose to learn CBT. What inspires THAT choice? Why don’t we all take action to attain happiness?
