Audience Q&A: Is Happiness Overrated?

from Zen Stoic Path Show · host Victor Pierantoni

We hear people say all the time, “I want to be happy,” or “do what makes you happy.”This advice is hardly useful in any practical way because what we think makes us happy is actually an abstraction of actual happiness. Happiness is not a thing you can go and get, it is a state of being, yet most people associate the concept of happiness with an external result or outcome. There’s a lot of “I’ll be happy if/when” type of mentality out there.You cannot pursue happiness because there is nothing to chase. It's not running from you.Imagine a world where we didn’t believe the lie that happiness exists outside of us? What might be possible?
