Psychological Nutrition (Part 1)

Winning the lottery, relocating to an ideal climate, or getting that big promotion may give you a temporary boost, but they won’t lead to lasting happiness. In fact, 50% of lottery winners report feeling worse after just three years. So, what does lead to true happiness?

It’s not the flashy stuff—real, sustainable happiness comes from building "psychological nutrition." These are the key habits and knowledge that support your mental well-being. Happiness isn’t a destination to reach, but a direction to move toward. Rather than chasing happiness, we should focus on enhancing our overall sense of well-being and embracing the journey along the way.

This is part one of a two-part series aimed at redefining satisfaction and well-being. In these articles, we’ll debunk common myths about happiness, explore the psychology behind behaviors that influence our mental health, and share practical strategies for building habits that nourish your mind. Join me as we dive into how to improve life satisfaction and unlock lasting happiness.
