- 认知的偏差。
我们以为讨厌我们的工作，但是业余时间如果浪费在做一些无趣的事情，也会让我们不开心，还不如工作。所以比较重要的事情最好是找个喜欢工作。
工作后做一些自己想做没有压力的事情其实也挺开心的。
不应该把意义放在ED上！找到更多的意义！ - 冥想真的有助于大脑的重新塑造！

Week 1: MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT HAPPINESS

FLOW = THE MENTAL STATE IN WHICH A PERSON PERFORMING AN ACTIVITY IS FULLY IMMERSED IN A FEELING OF ENERGIZED FOCUS, FULL INVOLVEMENT, AND ENJOYMENT (AKA “THE ZONE”)
SOME FEATURES OF FLOW
• CHALLENGING BUT ATTAINABLE GOALS
• STRONG FOCUSED CONCENTRATION
• THE ACTIVITY IS INTRINSICALLY REWARDING
• FEELINGS OF SERENITY
• LOSS OF SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS
• TIMELESSNESS / LOSE TRACK OF TIME
PASSING
• LACK OF AWARENESS OF PHYSICAL NEEDS
• COMPLETE FOCUS ON THE ACTIVITY ITSELF
