8 questions to build long term happiness

Learn how to ask yourself better questions that can help you live with more purpose and happiness and reduce feelings of anxiety and frantic switching and searching.

On the growth mindset with Sam Webster Harris, we explore the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, and purpose. Why they can be hard to find and how to build them through a process of self-reflection combined with an honest assessment of what is holding us back and what is driving us forward. Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create. - - - Connect with Sam 🧘‍♀️ Newsletter: https://explosivethinking.substack.com/ 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/samjamharris 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samjam.zen/ - - - Stay up to date: 🤓🤓🤓 💡 Podsite: https://www.growthmindsetpodcast.com/ GOAT Books to read (that changed my life) 📚📚🐐 🏃‍♀️ Atomic Habits: https://amzn.to/3O1F5MC 🧠 Mindset, psychology of success: https://amzn.to/42nYDzj 💰 Psychology of Money: https://amzn.to/3nNnXzs - - - Show: Growth Mindset, psychology of self-improvement Episode: 8 questions to build long-term happiness - stop losing yourself in the noise and focus on what's important Chapters 00:00 Is it all about NOW?  01:10 Tunnel vision in our lives 02:36 Now-ish thinking 04:04 30-year thinking 05:07 Goal based vs energy-based work 07:15 Questions to ask yourself 09:00 Danger of putting off till 'one day' 09:55 Doing what you want or don't know how to stop? 11:04 Balancing Present and Future thinking Topics Positive psychology Job Anxiety Living with purpose Stoicism Long-term thinking Building healthy habits Habit formation Find your purpose Power of now Liberation from desire Capitalism and consumerism Societal norms Happiness in simplicity Dealing with Overwhelm Prioritizing commitments Growth mindset Psychology of Success Peak performance and Resilience Human potential Embracing failure Mental toughness Vipassana meditation Self-improvement Personal development Success Strategies Motivation and inspiration Goal setting and achievement Overcoming challenges Positive affirmations Visualization techniques Continuous learning Self-awareness and self-discovery Positive mindset Emotional intelligence Perseverance and determination Transformative life journeys Achieving greatness Harnessing inner strength Learn more about your ad choices.
