A car, money, new love is all things we seek to decrease our suffering and increase our levels of happiness. Instead of happiness, the things we are seeking are a pleasure but there is a difference between happiness and please.

Pleasure boosts a chemical in the brain called dopamine and happiness boost a chemical called serotonin that scientist call "the happiness hormone".

In an article at alpha lifestyle academy entitled "The Bio-Chemistry Of Success", the research shows the world's most successful people have high levels of serotonin.

So we should be doing things to boost serotonin.

National Geographic financed research to find the most happiest and people who have the highest level of life ratification on earth.

We will look at what things contribute to their overall happiness in each location, the factors each location has in common, and how you can apply them into your life. 

Dr. Brian Clement of the Hippocrates Institute in West Palm Beach Florida has said that the further we get from the way nature intended them harder life has gotten. In other words when we started to think we could do better than nature things started to go bad for us.

Cultures from around the world still live the same principles they have been living for hundreds of years, and the more societies advanced the less happy we got.

There are things we can do to increase our level of happiness without giving up our modern convents. It is only when we stray away from these principles that makes our happiness go down.

We have historical writings that can show us how to live.

For example, You do not have to be a religious person to see the wisdom of the Bible, in fact, most religions teach their own ideas and teach things that our country to the principles found in the Bible.

Many of the principles of the happiest people are also the same principles taught in the pages of the Bible.

Matthew 5-7, we read advice that Jesus gave how to be happy, how to get along with others, family matters, and money issues. Although this advice is 2,000 years old, it is just as powerful and helpful today.

Isaiah 48:17 says of our creator, that I am the one teaching you to benefit yourself, the one guiding you the way you should walk.

Each of these locations there are environments, and laws that make their situation unique, however, by looking at the principles we will look at how to apply these principles into our own lifestyle to improve our own level of happiness.

GDP & Income

The GDP of each country is different, requiring different currencies and levels of income to provide for your basic needs.

As Kanya West said having money is not everything, not having it is. when you have money, it's just one less thing to worry about

We all heard people say “money does not buy happiness”. Anyone who says that has never felt the pain that not having enough will bring you. Nothing brings us as much joy or pain as our romantic relationships. The main thing that couples arguing over, are money issues, and the #1 reason for divorce is money

The money will only make you happy to a certain point and more money will not make you any happier. In fact, more money will make you less happy.

The science shows you need $75,000 a year in America to be happy however, once you pass $105,000 a year, more money does not make you any happier.

Health & Life Expectancy

National Geographic conducted a study on the blue zone which are parts of the world, where they have the highest percentages of people living past 100. What was interesting about this study is, they were also very happy, which lead to another study to find more happy people in the world.  

Because health and happiness are linked. You cannot be happy if you are not healthy.   

Generosity

When you are happy it is more likely you will be generous. Many parts of the world being generous is part of their culture.

As Luke 6:38 says: Practice giving, and others will give to you. When you live in a culture of giving, everyone in the environment is more giving to each other. Not only helping those in need but also giving because they feel the joy of giving.

There is more happiness in giving than in receiving - Acts 20:35

America is known to have an independent spirit however, there are subcultures in America that are very that are giving of each other.

Tolerance

The happiest part of the world is also very tolerant of the differences in people. These do not always mean you agree with them, but you can still spread the love without agreeing with them, or their beliefs.

This also does not allow you to shame someone, or to be easily offended because they do not agree with you. But by showing love and respect for other people.

Social

Social: TV, the internet, and social media has contributed to social isolation. Technology has helped us to be more productive however, after more than 30 minutes of TV, happiness levels began to decline. The same was true for social media but for the first 45 minutes people were more happy than those who did not spend anytime on social media.

But after an hour of social media their happiness levels dropped, and the more time they were on social media the less happy they were.

The happiest part of the world, family and friends are very important.
Americans see working long as badge of honor and a way to get ahead, in Denmark it’s seen as a weakness because to be as efficient as possible, they don’t socialize at work, or take breaks to run errands.

Free time is “the most important,” so they can spend time with their friends and family.

Lack of money is not only #1 reason for divorce but so is long working hours. Overworking is the #2 reason for divorce. 

The US Travel Association published a study that showed 79% of couples who travel together feel their relationship improved after returning from vacation.

Studies have shown to have a high level of life satisfaction, you must spend 6 weeks a year on vacation.

In a video, at jetsetter.alphalifestyle.com you can see how to tap into a secret loophole inside the travel industry to get the best price guaranteed anytime you travel or to make sure you 110% of your money back.

Trust

 If you have looked into the impact and how important ethics are in business, you will see how important trust is. Warren Buffet is known to be trustworthy to others, he will then agree to a multi-million dollar contract on a handshake.

The happiest societies have a very high level of trust, not only in their government but with each other. This is one of those things that is very hard to accomplish because of the society we live in. You might not be able to trust your business and government leader however, there are sub-cultures that have a very high level of trust.

Within the walls of Disneyland and Disney World there is a level of trust and respect for each other. My ex-wife left her iPhone on a table inside the park, and on another occasion a friend left their Dimond ring on the table. It was not until we got home did we realize where they left it.

We thought for sure, someone would have taken our items.

We called the park and they mailed our items back to our address. Outside of those walls of the Disney parks, people are selfish, greedy, and self-centered. But inside the walls of Disney people are considerate, giving up their seats so an older person can sit down.

We can create sub-cultures where there is a high level of trust and respect for one another.

The more people chase happiness the harder it is to achieve. When we look at the blue zones where populations have the largest number of people living past 100. They don’t try to live healthily or live a long life. They live a longer life because of the way their life is set up.

Our mission is to ease suffering by sharing the life-changing advice from some of the far most experts in their field.

As you continue through other modules you will discover how to set up your home, kitchen, bedroom, tribe, and your life to live a happier life by increasing your happiness.

You may not be as happy as you want to be, but if you lived in another part of the world however, in your current situation we can apply these principles into your life.
