Do you want to be happier?

Personal happiness? According to the philosopher Aristotle, this state is the main objective of all people; However, how can it be achieved? What are its causes? How long does it last? What prevents you from achieving it?

Beyond professional success, emotional stability and health, personal happiness can be affected by life experiences and by the capacity for concentration that the individual has in the "here and now."

This is what he expresses Matthew Killingsworth, creator of the application trackyourhappiness.org for iPhone. A mechanism that measures happiness in real time and that has led the specialist to discover that a scattered mind is an unhappy mind, as shown in the following video made for the page TED web:

According to the specialist and his colleague Daniel Gilbert, both from Harvard University , people wander 49, 9% of the waking hours, a situation that makes them less happy.

This dispersion in attention is due to the fact that human beings are the only ones that possess the ability to think about past or future events or that they could never happen. This skill allows to learn, reason and plan, but it is possible that at a very high cost: happiness.
