@kinesin very nice. I like the one about the living space to look nice. Never really thought about that one. Do you have some examples of doing things that will make the future miserable?

I’m trying to figure out how to maximize my happiness. I’ve found maintaining my health and being social are the main two ingredients. Does anyone have any other practical suggestions that has worked for them?

@tommysalerno interesting social experience.

@King Merk Leo has a video on this I think. You need to get the basics done right. Watch life advice for young people

@thisintegrated we here because we are social animals and we have a common interest in this forum. Personal development and understanding

I’ve been listening to Leo since 2016. Totally transformed my understanding of everything. Only downside is, conversation I used to have with friends are now boring and not worth entertaining.

@kinesin totally agree ??. I do this all the time.

I've been working from home for a year, most of my work connections have faded away. I have however connected with some old friends (5 in total) via a WhatsApp chat group. We chat daily about sports, politics, meme etc. I'm actually pretty surprised how fulfilling it is. Do you think something like this is a sufficient social outlet if you have a wife/kids or do you think a person still needs more social interaction? I can't really judge if my happiness level is any different now vs pre-pandemic. Please let me know what your experiences are.

My wife has recently fallen sick, basically I have gone from husband to primary care taker. I work from home full time and don't get to see anybody but my wife especially during Covid. One of the things we used to enjoy together was over the weekend was having a few beers and watching a TV series together. Basically she goes to bed early and I'm stuck on my own. I have to say, it's kind of depressing. I am 43 and I was thinking a solution would be to get into gaming. I would really only be able to do it on my iphone with a Razor controller. The problem I found is no game seems to hold my attention and I get little to no enjoyment out of it. Can anyone recommend a solution to fill the void? Or can you recommend some iOS, Stadia games that will keep me occupied during this time?

@Logan Thanks, started watching it. REally good, not sure why he just didn't upload to youtube/podcast. Got some real golden nuggets from it

@Conscious life no idea, what do you think it will be?

@mikelyons LOL

When will Leo be posting new video?

Leo has mentioned in several videos that we should spend time alone. However evidence says that social connections are good for your health and longevity. Shoulds we strive to be more connected or not. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roseto_effect

one of my favourite videos is "how to stop comparing yourself to other?" Golden nugget at 50 minutes. The problem im having is that this advise is conflicting with the video "Lifestyle minimalism". should i persue my goals or not?
