Life Satisfaction Quotes

“Happiness, after all, is generally measured as reported satisfaction with one's life - a state of mind perhaps more accessible to those who are affluent, who conform to social norms, who suppress judgment in the service of faith, and who are not overly bothered by societal injustice...The real conservatism of positive psychology lies in its attachment to the status quo, with all its inequalities and abuses of power. Positive psychologists' tests of happiness and well-being, for example, rest heavily on measures of personal contentment with things as they are.”

“Life's too gorgeous to be sad! Why settle for a frown when you can turn that upside down into a smiley emoji? Dive into the beauty around you, chase those rainbows, and sprinkle glitter on any gray clouds that dare to linger. Remember, happiness is your birthright, so grab it with both hands and twirl it around like a champ! It's your world, so make it sparkle and shine. Remember, happiness is a choice, and today, you choose joy!”

“Even when money and your finances are an acute priority, it literally pays to focus on the value you're bringing to others. When researchers followed a longitudinal sample of 4660 people over nine years, they found that having a sense of purpose in the first year of the study (based on a standard assessment of purpose in life) was associated with higher levels of both income and net worth over time. What's more, even when they controlled for other variables like life satisfaction and socioeconomic status, people with a sense of purpose at at work also had significantly higher incomes at the end of those nine years.”
