Seven Blind Spots of Happiness (From Solve for Happy)

Why do we feel unhappy even when life seems fine?

According to Mo Gawdat, the problem is not reality. The problem is how we interpret reality.

In his book Solve for Happy, he explains that happiness is our natural default state. But certain mental blind spots distort our perception and create unnecessary suffering.

These blind spots are not obvious. They are subtle habits of thinking we rarely question.

Here are the seven blind spots that reduce happiness.

  1. Living in the Past
  2. Worrying About the Future
  3. Constant Judgment
  4. Attachment to Expectations
  5. Identifying With Your Thoughts
  6. Mental Noise
  7. Forgetting the Present Moment

Happiness is not something you need to chase.

It is something that remains when mental distortions disappear.

By recognising the seven blind spots, you can reconnect with your natural state of happiness
