There's something about the dopamine levels in the prefrontal cortex that makes that a harder thing to do and to maintain focus, et cetera, et cetera. So this is a miracle for a whole class of people that were kind of dismissed.

Sorry to say that as a business school professor.

You know, that's right. And it's not just that it's not practical. It's that it's irrelevant. And irrelevancy and practicality are totally different things. And that's one of the reasons that at Harvard Business School, generally the teaching method is case studies. It's case studies of people in actual business. That's not how I teach.

I think I'm the only faculty member that teaches science in terms of lecture and discussion. But the whole point is they form the corpus of knowledge along with me in terms of the questions that they're asking about their lives. Yeah.

becoming happier, seeing their lives as a startup where the currency of their fortune is love and happiness, and then how they can become happiness teachers in the course of what they're trying to do in business. So I'm bringing the science along, bringing the science along, and then they're actually applying it to their own lives and to their own business careers.

Yeah. That's a lot of what I talk about is how to fall in love and stay in love. And part of the reason is because that's the most complex thing that we're going to do. So the modern world teaches us how to use complicated formulas to solve problems. That's what social media is all about. That's what technology is about. That's what all of the engineering solutions that we find in life is.

There's an app for that. There's not an app for the most complex thing in life, which is falling in love. You know, it's funny because you know exactly what it is, but you can't simulate it. You can't, you can't predict it. You can't solve for it. And even though I've been married almost 34 years, I don't know what's going to happen today. My wife will get really mad at me probably today.
