WE’VE ALSO LOOKED AT RANDOM SAMPLES OF PEOPLE FROM AROUND THE WORLD, WHO’S HAPPY, WHO’S NOT HAPPY. THEN WE CRUNCH ALL THESE NUMBERS AND WE SAY, “GEE, WHAT REALLY MATTERS?” BY STUDYING IDENTICAL TWINS, PEOPLE WITH ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME GENETIC MAKEUP, RESEARCHERS HAVE DISCOVERED THAT APPROXIMATELY % OF THE DIFFERENCES IN OUR HAPPINESS LEVELS IS DETERMINED BY OUR GENES. THEY CALL THAT OUR “GENETIC SET POINT,” OR OUR “GENETIC SET RANGE.” MOST OF US ARE BORN WITH A CERTAIN RANGE OF HAPPINESS THAT WE FALL IN MOST OF THE TIME. AND EVEN WHEN REALLY GOOD OR REALLY BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO US, WE KIND OF TEND TO RETURN TO OUR SET POINT. AND WHILE % IS GENETIC, AMAZINGLY, OUR CIRCUMSTANCES, LIKE WHAT JOB WE HAVE OR HOW MUCH MONEY WE HAVE, OUR SOCIAL STATUS, OUR HEALTH, THOSE THINGS THAT MANY OF US ARE TOLD TO FOCUS ON, THEY ONLY ACCOUNT FOR % OF THE DIFFERENCES IN OUR HAPPINESS. MOST PEOPLE ARE KIND OF STUNNED AT HOW SMALL THAT IS, BUT THAT STILL LEAVES % UNACCOUNTED FOR. AND SO OUR THEORY SUGGESTS THAT THERE IS A GREAT DEAL YOU CAN DO TO BECOME HAPPIER, AND THAT % IS LEFT FOR KIND OF INTENTIONAL BEHAVIOR, YOU KNOW, THINGS THAT WE CAN DO ON A REGULAR BASIS TO BECOME HAPPIER. IT’S VERY IMPORTANT IF A PERSON WANTS TO BECOME HAPPIER TO TRY NOT TO ADAPT TO WHAT THEY’RE DOING. SO, THEY WOULD CONSCIOUSLY VARY WHAT THEY DO. IT COULD BE LIKE WHEN YOU DO YOUR DAILY RUN THAT YOU TAKE A DIFFERENT ROUTE. I MEAN, THAT’S NOT REALLY, YOU KNOW, MIND-BOGGLING. FOR SOME PEOPLE, IT’S GONNA BE A LOT OF CHANGE. FOR SOME PEOPLE, IT’S GONNA BE A LITTLE. BUT THAT CHANGE IS IMPORTANT. VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE. THIS IS A PARADISE TO ME. THAT’S WHY I LOVE IT SO MUCH. AND YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU’RE GONNA SEE. PEOPLE EITHER CALL ME FOR A TOUR, “WHAT WE GONNA SEE?” “I DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU’RE GONNA SEE, BUT WE’RE GONNA SEE SOMETHING.” LOOK RIGHT THERE. THAT’S A CRAWFISH EATER. LOOK AT THAT ALLIGATOR ON THAT BIG LOG. SEE IT? I FEEL LIKE A KID, MAN. AND RIGHT WHERE WE AT THERE, STRAIGHT AHEAD, MY HOUSE IS RIGHT THERE ACROSS THE LEVEE. IN THE AFTERNOON SOMETIMES, I’M KIND OF, LIKE, DOWN A LITTLE BIT. I JUMP IN MY -WHEELER, AND I COME PARK RIGHT THERE.
