HAPPINESS MADE SIMPLE?





This blog post postulates the question of happiness e.g. its form, function and the possible underlying mechanisms. 




Some people can be uncomfortable repeatedly (every year to every month); they can feel empty, have an urge, an itch or the need for something, anything ... just to feel FULL? 


This could include needing food and objects, to even jumping from relationship to relationship, or the constant need for attention from anyone ... just to feel that tad bit happier.






If you're not happy in your own skin, afraid of being alone and doing your own thing then sinking into depression may be common...


If you're not getting a source of constant love and admiration from another in order to feel happy ... well, perhaps.. just perhaps ... you are not balanced? 






Science can only tell you so much... you can have all the knowledge of a person or humans and their behaviours ... but you can never truly understand it.... many just JUDGE it.  


Can the quality of a lived experience be measured and quantified so another can really UNDERSTAND and not just know it? 







OK, so let's look at the SCIENTIFIC perspective..... 







Try to be a bit more CRITICAL to all the scientific evidence? 






Is there  a more holistic view towards  happiness? 






Facts from different cultures are insightful; however, how about the  PHILOSOPHY of it all????? 










SO happiness can be embodied in 1+ perceptions, ways and possible models!!!  Best to perhaps tackle them all??? 







PUT SIMPLY: It is not about doing it in a SET MANNER e.g. the pursuit of happiness.


But it may be more: being mentally aware, e.g. to think about oneself, love oneself and self validate actively.

Perhaps it's this rather than being on autopilot doing things that we may feel bring us happiness.... which can become a maladaptive cycle that can lead to the repeated feeling or mistakes that something is missing. 

Is it a solidified unknown? Perhaps it's less unknown if one allows themselves to be just as they are?

PSYCHOPATHS:  

Secrets of success hidden by lies & marked by Neurology




What differs between a criminal psychopath and non-criminal psychopath therefore may be due to just biology and the opportunities in which these individual are able to express these behaviours.





This article gives a more simplified psychotic insight into what it is like to feel like a corporate psychopath from a first-person perspective, alongside the possible biological reasons why this may develop to a degree.  





PET scans comparing normal participants with psychopathic individuals have also found differences which made them more pre-disposed to crime: for instance, the OFC brain area is key for inhibitory control of desires and processing social and moral values – psychopaths displayed less activation in brain projection from this region towards limbic brain areas, alongside increased self-reports of aggressive tendencies.








Their reaction may possibly be and is not limited to: lies, creating negative gossip, falsifying paper work or taking any opportunity to undermine you. Their passive aggressive feelings tend not diminish over time…. If it’s biological, they really cannot help it; if it’s a personality construct, then hopefully therapy can help to change.


Put simply, a person you know or know of, may be BORN a PSYCHOPATH if they show the possible associative traits, and this may be even higher if they have a job with A POSITION OF POWER (even if they have a relatively low management position, as long as they are above someone else).
