Money can buy you happiness!

Let me show you how

The notion that money can not buy happiness has for so long made many people operate at a low frequency.

This is because they believe that no matter how much they accumulate that it still won't help them find happiness.

While in reality, they haven't found happiness because they really do not have the means to get the things that will make them happy.

Happiness is a feeling and that feeling is always elicited by something either tangible or intangible.

For example, you just had a new baby; that can make you happy that you birthed a new being into the world.

If you bought a new car, especially if it is your first car, that can make you happy.

If you just won a competition, that can make you happy.

Okkk…. I know you will be like >>>

so what are you getting at mate?

Alright …alright… I know you are tired of my examples.

So, let me finish up by asking!

Will it be ok to say that even though money can not directly buy happiness, it can indirectly BUY it?

What I mean by that is >>>

If you had enough money and have no car and used your money to buy yourself a new car (your first car):

Won't it be correct to say that money enabled that happiness and thus that money bought you some happiness?

Of course, I know that you can already see where my argument is headed…

Even though money can not directly buy you happiness (just because happiness is intangible), It can buy you tangible assets and connections that can give you the said happiness.

Let me know your thoughts on this.

Reality can be manufactured

The concept of reality, traditionally understood as the sum of all that is real or existent, is undergoing a profound re-evaluation in the modern age. With advances in technology, psychology, and media, it has become evident that reality, as perceived by individuals and societies, can be manufactured. This manufactured reality encompasses altered perceptions, manipulated narratives, and constructed environments, all designed to influence thoughts, behaviors, and beliefs. This article delves into the mechanisms and implications of manufactured reality, examining historical precedents, modern techniques, and future prospects. Propaganda and Public Perception The notion of shaping reality is not new. Throughout history, leaders and governments have used propaganda to influence public perception and control societal narratives. Ancient empires, such as Rome, used monuments, coins, and public ceremonies to craft an image of power and stability. In the 20th century, propagan...

The Day I Felt Powerless

Needless to say, I've had my fair share of frustrating situations and unplanned challenges. But the day I felt powerless was by far one of the most unforgettable experiences on that list. It was the day I had a brisk accident while riding my motorbike, descending from a bridge. The incident happened so fast that if someone had sneezed a second before, they would’ve missed the trailer entirely. But to me—the eye of the beholder—the incident didn’t feel fast at all. I can actually recall it in slow motion. It happened when a van in front of me, for whatever reason best known to the driver (which I will never be able to tell), suddenly decided to slow down rapidly and stop right in the middle of the expressway. And just as quickly, after the incident, the van zoomed off. I wasn’t exactly caught off guard—because, like I said, I saw it happening—but by then, I was already too far gone, in the middle of rolling down the bridge myself. I couldn’t do much else but allow the deed to take i...

You will struggle in life if you don’t know this one thing!

Gratitude in this case is a way in which you show appreciation for something that you have or have access to. It’s giving ∼ that if you appreciate something it tends to increase, just like the saying goes ‘what you focus on expands.’ Gratitude can open up big doors for you that you would ordinarily not have access to. It works like magic and even those who enjoy its largesse may never be able to explain its powers fully. However, what I have seen and can say about it is that; When you show genuine appreciation for something, it puts you in a mood which in turn necessitates the happy emotion. Happy emotion is a very powerful vibe that is magnetic. When you meet a person with a happy vibe you can’t help but get a spice up on your mood as well. So, as I was trying to explain… When you show gratitude and start to exude the powerful emotion of happiness, it becomes easy for people to want to associate with you and thus partake in the vibes. This will ultimately lead to you getting support f...
