Build the Life You Want
Dr. Arthur Brooks delivered a nutrient-rich and empowering talk called Build the Life You Want, named after the best-selling book. Though suffering is inevitable, Dr. Brooks invoked his colleague Oprah Winfrey in saying the goal to life is happierness.
He described enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning as the three macronutrients, or objectives, of living a happier life.
To build the life we want, we should not be afraid or resistant to our emotions. Our emotions are vital in detecting both opportunities and threats, and stem from the brain’s limbic system.
We are taught that the secret to satisfaction is having more, more, more. Because we are wired for homeostasis, there never seems to be enough.
He also gave us an equation for satisfaction: “Satisfaction = Haves/wants.” To increase satisfaction, we can pay attention to our wants (our desires and goals). Instead of focusing on not having what we want, we have the control to want what we have.
Dr. Brooks recommended implementing four daily habits to increase happiness. First, engage in something that gives us a transcendent experience of life (e.g., nature, art, religion, and meditation).
Second and third, connect with family and friendships that are based in love. Lastly, do work in service to others where we are acknowledged and rewarded for the value we create.
Overall, Dr. Brooks defined happiness as love expressed in the way we earn our daily bread.

This was a standout talk. "Make peace with your life" - such a great line
Sad I could not make the conference, but grateful for the recordings, especially this one!
Amazing experience!!
Happyness is based on happenings. Joy is unconditional because it is based on the hope that things can get better.
the inimitable Dr. Frederic Luskin! Thank you for this, Fred!
Everybody becomes happy after a successfull corporate career
Really?
@@mirelapuscas7952 Being cynical about it obviously🤣
There are as many unhappy people who had a successful corporate career as proportionally unhappy people who haven't had a successful corporate career. Happiness doesn't have anything to do with having a successful Career in the past. It Is more about having expectations about the present and future and being okay with what's coming at you and understanding that you have no control over everything and the only thing that matters is how you react to the events in your life that come at you.
I would love to add French subtitles to this great talk. I invited Fred to our Days of Forgiveness in France, ten years ago, and I am very fond of his work. Whom should I contact for adding subtitles ? Thanks !
Sounds more like a sales pitch careful who you let in your garden of thought. Ideology is rising fast and we are the SHEEP.
Yeah...I missed the actual content. I felt like he was more talking about talking about being unstressable.
Алла 👍🇺🇦
What a fabulous gathering filled with meaningful conversations, spectacular views, and laughter with friends! Already looking forward to next year ❤
This is value 😂😂😂

Congratulations 🎉
Yay!!! So beautiful! Boarding now!!
I checked out your CZcams channel and found your content very nice and thumbnail construction perfect. But the problem is that you have not done SEO in your video due to which your video is not getting more views. If you do video SEO your video will be on the top of the search list and your audience will increase. I also noticed that your video tag is not used, title-description-tag is not SEO friendly, title is too long, and channel tag is not used, I can fix these if you want. And I will SEO your videos to reach your real audience.
Hi Dear How are you? Great. Your Content is fantastic, But your video optimization section area is not perfectly up to date. Out of 100, that's a score of 0, that's why your video is not reaching out to people and you do have not many subscribers, views, likes, watch time, and comments. I think your CZcams channel will make your dream come true. I am waiting for your response.
Bravo! Watched this speech in person, and again, amazing as always ❤ thank you for sharing !!
I’m so excited to be part of this and can’t wait to meet everyone for such an incredible event - thank you @wohasu
So Excited to Join!! Thank you Karen for the amazing work you're doing!
You’ve made a “MEASS” of your thumbnail.
I personally took Professor Sandro Formica’s personal empowerment course in FIU and the lessons I learned from that life changing class still carries on in my heart.
Dr Fred Luskin opens my mind when it can’t Thank you endlessly Your work has transformed my heart and mind
