As you can imagine, the factors he lists are mainly either
dumb, unrealistic, or pretty obvious to anybody with a brain cell. (By an odd
coincidence, I’ve generally found that people with no brain cells are the
happiest of all. He didn’t mention that.) The one I particularly picked up on,
though, was this:
An essential part of a
happy life is to do something twice a day that truly gives you pleasure or
excites you.
‘Twice a day,’ note, not once. Doing it once a day isn’t
enough if you want to glow. No.
But let’s say there are only two things that truly give you
pleasure or excite you, and you’re too poor for one and too old for the other.
What then?
Fortunately, it isn’t quite true of me since I get pleasure
from talking to cows, but it nearly is.
