Adam and Jeannie discuss engineering happiness for true success with Mo Gawdat, author of Solve for Happy. Engineering happiness for true success We often think to ourselves that if we get what, where or who we want in our lives, we’ll be happy. We look to successful individuals, and they seem so happy to us! “You’re happy when the events of life meet your expections of how life should be.” -Mo Gawdat But correlation is not necessarily causation where success and happiness intersect. Why is it, as humans, we’re never quite as happy as we thought we’d be once get what we want? As an engineer, our guest Mo Gawdat sought to research, understand and solve this problem after a tragedy involving his son. He observed that we often look to outside factors, the things we can’t control, to evaluate our own happiness. To make matters worse, we often cling to things we can control, like worries, sadness and emotional pain. “Happiness is inside you. It’s never to be found outside you.” -Mo Gawdat Through touchi
