Find out the element of maintaining happiness
Keeping those happy moments and not comparing your personal experience with others can help you stay happy longer.
The conclusion comes after the 481 scientists who happily surveyed 481 people have made positive changes that make them feel happier, according to news agency Press Trust of India .
After 6 weeks of follow-up, psychologists assessed whether the initial increase in pleasure was still prolonged. The results show that many people can no longer keep this joy.
'Most of them no longer feel happy because they demand more and raise standards, or don't continue to create a new positive experience in the initial change. For example, they stopped doing fun things with their new boyfriend and started wanting him to be more handsome , 'explains Professor of Psychological Sciences Kennon Sheldon at the University of Missouri (USA).
Mr. Sheldon said: 'Some people appreciate what they have and continue to have new experiences. In the long run, they can maintain their happy feelings. '
Researchers say genetics or other factors, many people have a level of happiness that they often feel and it can change from suffering to joy.
According to Mr. Sheldon, people can train themselves to stay at the top of their happiness.
He said: 'Therapists can help a person from suffering to better condition. Our research shows that people can make themselves happier. '
