Can Brain Training Unlock the key to Happiness?
Brain training and happiness are in truth are closely related. When we understand what the different types of happiness are and what sort of gratification they bring intellectually we can increase the happiness in our lives every day with our decisions.
In short, there are two types of happiness: a quick instant “fun happiness”, and a longer lasting hard-earned “productive happiness”. The first comes from enjoying an activity. We call this play. The second comes from enjoying hard-earned results. We call this work.
“Fun happiness” ends as soon as the game is over. No play, no fun. “Productive happiness” lasts forever as a sense of accomplishment. Usually, a person gives up some instant gratification as an investment for the deeper, longer lasting happiness that comes from productivity.
However, these two types of happiness need not conflict. We can bring them together. We do this when we love our job. That means we do something productive, meaningful and valuable to society, but also something we happen to love doing. This has another benefit; we are most productive when we enjoy what we’re doing.
