All commuting does is raises your unhappiness.

And so that's to have- Say that one more time.

So for example, a lot of people say, I will be happier if I have a shorter commute.

Yeah.

No, you won't.

You'll be less unhappy if you have a shorter commute because a commute is a source of irritation.

A source is a source of aggravation.

And so there's all kinds of things that people get wrong in their marriages, for example.

They need to lower the unhappiness of their marriage, not raise the happiness of their marriage.

You need to solve a problem with the problems of the problem.

If you don't have the problems, you don't have lack of interest, then you need to raise the happiness.

You need to know what to diagnose and what to do on the basis of understanding what part of the limbic system you're working in.

Okay, so you do, you work out, but that's not all you do.

No, no, no.
