The results of the research we have read this week are so interesting and curious, because the text shows many things we can think but we don’t share in a daily chat.
ReplyDeleteI agree with most of conclusions from Matthew Killingsworth (Mateo Matanzavaliosa o Valía Agotadora). For instance, when he assures that our mind is a wandering mind because we need to train us in order to avoid a lack of concentration. In fact, we are educated at school in this way, becoming a problematic student who is not able to concentrate on doing anything.
I also agree the idea of happiness is found by living in the now. This is because we can waste a lot of our time thinking or dreaming a imaginary situation. It makes us not to have time to feel or be happy with what we are doing in that moment.
However, I disagree with the sample of volunteers the have taken in the research because I believe they haven’t consulted children or the elderly about that matter. It becomes the research a partial study.
In conclusion, the psychological research has several interesting ideas about happiness and what we should do to get closer to it. So, after reading the text, we can decide where we want to focus on our concentration if we wish to be happier.
