But Mother Nature lies.

She doesn't care if you're happy.

She wants you to survive and pass on your genes.

If you can, she wants you to have 75 kids.

But she doesn't care if you're happy.

And so the result is happiness.

That's in your hands.

This guy didn't know that.

This guy, oh yeah, it's gonna be great.

The next thing, the next thing, the next thing.

He was on the wheel of sort of the addiction to successes and trying to find satisfaction.

He obviously never found it.

I thought to myself, you know, this is my life's work.

I gotta crack this case.

How can you be both successful and happy?

And I've really specialized in entrepreneurs and then very ambitious people, the people who are trying to get ahead, but who also need to be working on their happiness at the same time.

I think that's what we can do and really help a lot of people's lives.

That's what that little incident did for me.

Yeah, a lot of people are starting to realize that a lot of psychology is actually biology.

And I mean, we already know that a lot of biology is actually psychology.
