fear of death was lessened in people who had a sense of purpose. Sense of purpose is more of a spiritual principle than a religious activity. They found that sense of purpose had a positive effect on subjective well-being, alleviating fear of death and the anxiety that results

The double umbrella

Freud's theories are best understood as covering three key areas: The first is the idea of the importance of unconscious feelings. Freud’s first case studies purported to show the way that when strong feelings cause conflict, they may be blocked from awareness - repressed. This, however, doesn’t mean that they go away. One way they may express themselves is in the form of neurotic symptoms, usually in some way expressing the underlying conflict. As an example, a young woman who was disgusted by seeing a dog drink from a household glass developed symptoms where she couldn’t drink liquids. Unconscious feelings may also show themselves in distorted form in dreams. The goal of Freudian dream interpretation is to unravel the different kinds of distortion which mask the motivations underlying the dream. Freud also thought slips of the tongue and the mistakes we make were motivated by unconscious conflicts and feelings.

In a typical survey people are asked to rank their sense of well-being or happiness on a scale of 1 to 7, where 1 means "not at all satisfied with my life" and 7 means "completely satisfied." Of the American multimillionaires who responded, the average happiness score was 5.8.

Economies thrive when individuals strive, but because individuals will strive only for their own happiness, it is essential that they mistakenly believe that producing and consuming are routes to personal well-being." In other words, if you want to do your part for your country's economy, forget all of the above about money not buying happiness.

Why Money Doesn’t Buy Happiness

Seniors have worked hard for three years, taking tests, completing projects, and preparing for college admission. When senior year rolls around, some students just want to get through college applications and relax before they head off to the college of their choice.

Racism has existed throughout human history

This belief was not "automatic": that is, Africans were not originally considered inferior

Criticism Controversially, the NBA Finals are sometimes[3] regarded by league officials and U.S. media as a "World Championship," despite the fact that only teams from the US compete except for one team from Canada. This issue has become notable since USA national teams have not won official worldwide basketball competitions like the 2004 Olympics and the 2002 and 2006 FIBA World Championships, and have even finished as low as sixth place. Although some players from opponent international teams actually play in the NBA, teams with no NBA players -such as Greece and Italy- have won against NBA-based USA teams. From 1992 to 1996, the first four years of NBA players participating in USA Basketball at worldwide tournaments, these national teams did seem to dominate any opponent.

NBA.com Blog: Bill Russell: Cavs, Spurs Set for NBA Finals "I can think of about four or five playoff games similar to LeBron’s 48-point game, going back to ’58 when I got hurt in the playoffs and we lost to the Hawks in the NBA Finals. In the last game, Bob Pettit had 50 points and scored 19 of their last 21 points. Remember, Bob Pettit was one of the few guys that averaged over 20 points and 20 rebounds. That was a great Finals performance." San Antonio legend George Gervin with the trophy.Ned Dishman/NBAE/Getty Images George Gervin on the Finals: One-on-One With the Ice Man "Gervin is only too happy to reciprocate whether it’s a hug to an old friend or signing an autograph. But before he walked out to the runway to guide Slam Dunk One, the Southwest Airlines plane that just arrived from Baltimore carrying the Larry O’Brien Trophy, Gervin chilled in a back room for a one-on-one interview and discussed the key to the Spurs success (teamwork), Duncan, LeBron James, Cavs Role Players, the D-League, Kevin Durant-Ice Man comparisons and his Finals predictions." John Hareas on Hoops: The Top 10 Playoff Performances "He calls it his greatest NBA game ever. When 20-year-old rookie Magic Johnson received the news from Lakers head coach Paul Westhead that he was the Game 6 starting center replacing injured Kareem Abdul-Jabbar who was home in L.A. nursing an ankle sprain, he thought he was kidding. So what was Magic’s first official act in replacing Abdul-Jabbar as team leader? He took his empty seat at the front of the cabin on the team plane prior to the Lakers’ flight to Philadelphia, telling teammates, 'Never feat, E.J. is here.'" Scottie Pippen: If I Were Coach..., "The Spurs and Their Motivation To Make History" "Tim Duncan has been a phenomenal player, but it’s just been a tremendous ride watching Coach Popovich, a guy who was sort of pulled out of the front office and pulled into that coaching slot, and how this guy has turned out to be such a phenomenal coach. Not knowing a lot about him before he became the head coach of the San Antonio Spurs, he has really done a tremendous job for that franchise over the last ten years." Dennis Johnson grips the championship trophy in 1984.Andrew D. Bernstein/NBAE/Getty Images John Hareas on Hoops: An Appreciation: Dennis Johnson "The passing of Dennis Johnson was a great loss for the NBA and the D-League family. Not only was he was one of the NBA’s greatest players, easily one of the top 75 of all time and perhaps the most underrated of his generation, but Dennis Johnson the man touched everyone he encountered, teammates and foes alike." John Hareas on Hoops: Hall Should Call King and D.J. "There are 30 players in NBA history who have scored 20,000 or more points and all are either in Hall of Fame (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain, Moses Malone) or will soon be inducted (i.e. Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Karl Malone Reggie Miller). Only Gary Payton, Tom Chambers and Mitch Richmond among the 30 aren’t locks for Springfield with The Glove having the most realistic chance to gain entry."

I want to be happy!

"Everyone, no matter how secure they seem, no matter how old or young, rich or poor, has need of you."

Were there other approaches I could adopt, other attitudes or ways of thinking about my life that would also be likely to increase my total sum of happiness?

The difference is that instead of listing the things that are making him happy or unhappy, he writes down his key life 'domains' (love, profession, friends, play) and assigns them a rating on a scale of one to 10. Having performed this exercise every year for the past decade, Seligman says he can now see at a glance whether his happiness 'trajectory' is on the up or going down, and where there is room for improvement.

Unsurprisingly, the number one predictor of happiness is wealth.

Happiness does not come from having lots of money. Happiness comes from leading a satisfying life despite the fact that you have lots of money and can afford to sit around and do nothing.

And it made us feel good because:  we set and achieved a goal we completed something arduous enough to stretch us and expand our perceptions of our own capabilities
