Meetup : Perth, Australia: Discussion: How to be happy

Discussion article for the meetup : Perth, Australia: Discussion: How to be happy

WHEN: 04 November 2014 06:00:00PM (+0800)

WHERE: Sync Labs, 6663 Newcastle Street, Leederville, Australia

Happiness is pretty great, and fortunately there’s scientific research on the subject. lukeprog read a lot of this research and summarised it in How to Be Happy.

Come make some tea and discuss the article! We’ll raise questions like:

  • What’s important for happiness? What isn’t? (Spoiler: money isn’t, once you’re over the poverty line.)

  • Do any of lukeprog’s conclusions seem wrong? Do any seem surprising?

  • Have you ever done any of the things lukeprog recommends for becoming happier – such as becoming more extroverted, or switching to more fulfilling work? What effect did it have on your happiness?

The entrance to Sync Labs is between Cranked and Niche. Don’t trust Google Maps!
