It's official. Yet another study has found that the quality of life in Australia is right up there with the best.
Not surprisingly, the study has also found that people are less likely to measure happiness in terms of success or money. This is good for the majority of us, who are neither on the successful or rich list. And a great relief in times of economic uncertainty. So what does bring us happiness?
It was found that more people rated their happiness on "life's good moments" which incorporated social and sporting activities, and more importantly were shared with others.
I am a huge believer of this. Who wants to do something that creates excitement and joy on their own? How many could say that the happiest moments in their lives were experienced while alone?
Apparently, social media and technology have played a big role in this happiness as people are able to share things with others quicker and more freely.

So I will continue to experience life and it's less expensive activities, whilst sharing them with those around me.
How do you feel money and success rate in feeling happy?
Hi, new follower here from the blog hop! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with you and the study. Money and success will never be the determining factor for happiness. Though most of us would enjoy a little of both. It's who you share your life with.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog. Yes the hen saddle worked beautifully. Sunny is doing fine and she has feathers. She is still wearing the saddle just in case.
