Joy and happiness.<\/span><\/h2>\n

“H<\/span>ow happy a person could be if he\u00a0<\/span>didn’t<\/span> have to think about being\u00a0<\/span>happy<\/span>.”<\/span>Aldous Huxley <\/span>“<\/span><\/h2>\n

T<\/span>he more a person cares about pleasure (joy and happiness), the more this is for him, delight<\/span>\u00a0(joy and happiness) escapes<\/span>.”<\/span>V. E. Frankl.<\/span>“<\/span><\/h2>\n

J<\/span>ust as pleasure is not the same as giving meaning to a person and his life, neither is it lack of pleasure does not make life meaningless<\/span>.”<\/span>V. E. Frankl <\/span><\/h2>\n

The words<\/span>\u00a0“<\/span>joy<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>and<\/span>\u00a0“<\/span>happiness<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>have two different meanings. <\/span>The first refers to situations that occur without our fault. An example, could<\/span>\u00a0be a lottery win. The second meaning speaks of joy and happiness related to what we do. An example can be the care of <\/span>a garden or your child.\u00a0<\/span>We’ll<\/span>\u00a0be fine here about this second meaning of joy and happiness.<\/span><\/h2>\n

Joy.<\/span><\/h2>\n

Let’s<\/span> start with the joy of reaching the Goal. If the group succeeds in<\/span>\u00a0climbing a wall, reaching the top of a mountain, etc., they will appear together <\/span>with fatigue and a feeling of joy and happiness. Who has yet to experience it?\u00a0<\/span>It’s<\/span> hard to understand; it goes to Artists \u2014 painters, graphic artists, sculptors,\u00a0<\/span>composers, writers, poets, actors, builders, etc. He talks about <\/span>the joy of the finished work.<\/span><\/h2>\n

The joy of a tourist brand. You\u00a0<\/span>don’t<\/span> even need to reach the top of the\u00a0mountains<\/span>. And yet we can experience joy when, after a moment of uncertainty, whether <\/span>we are going the right way on the trip; suddenly, we see a tourist road, a sign that assures us that we are going the right way to the set Goal.<\/span><\/h2>\n

Joy as a byproduct. For the climbers, it was not about pleasure and <\/span>luck. They wanted to reach the top. The joy that is achieved <\/span>reached its peak; it was a byproduct. It was the same with <\/span>tourists in search of a brand.<\/span><\/h2>\n

HAVE SOMETHING TO LIVE FOR<\/strong><\/p>\n

Where does the road lead to joy and\u00a0<\/span>luck?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>A goal gives a focus (orientation) to a life path. <\/span>That’s<\/span> how this journey becomes meaningful.\u00a0<\/span>Joy and happiness emerge as a byproduct <\/span>of approaching the Goal or achieving it.<\/span><\/h2>\n

Example: Architect L. K worked on a challenging project. He was working,\u00a0<\/span>literally,<\/span>\u00a0“<\/span>day and night.<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>When it was finally his turn, failures managed to solve several problems, and the project was successfully <\/span>finished, he sat down and looked at what he had created, feeling <\/span>deep happiness and joy. He almost\u00a0<\/span>didn’t<\/span> want to believe what he had\u00a0<\/span>in front of him and what he was looking at. Is..just<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>his work.<\/span><\/h2>\n

Dead-end street. Why take a detour? Why not take it for luck and <\/span>joy directly? It shows that, in this way, it is <\/span>possible to make happiness and joy a goal. At the same time, however, it turns out that <\/span>a person is then like that. Who tries to walk straight through an avalanche of stones literally up<\/span>\u00a0the slope?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Joy and happiness<\/span><\/h2>\n

V. E. Frankl speaks in this connection \u2014 where we want to go <\/span>to happiness and joy directly \u2014 about the so-called hyperreflection. He understands her, <\/span>thinking too intensely about what we want to achieve. At the same time, he talks about hyperintention, which is too intense an effort. We know that these <\/span>psychological processes do not help our efforts, but the opposite <\/span>holds her back. And so it happens that the one who wants to be<\/span>\u00a0“<\/span>very happy<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>is <\/span>ultimately unhappy, and the one who wants to experience ..great joy<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>is <\/span>ultimately disappointed. Joy and happiness are not unique experiences of this kind<\/span>. This regularity also applies to recognition, self-realization, etc. As soon as <\/span>they become a goal in themselves, they<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>disappear into the distance. <\/span>A false path to joy and happiness <\/span>Goal… Goal of effort a <\/span>… the way to the Goal <\/span>c …false path (shortcut) to joy (R) and to happiness (S).<\/span><\/h2>\n

This path despises, neglects, etc., heading to <\/span>meaningful goals and,\u00a0<\/span>therefore, fails<\/span> to achieve true\u00a0<\/span>joy and happiness. <\/span>The negative impact of a false trip. We strive for joy and happiness <\/span>“<\/span>W<\/span>e’re<\/span>\u00a0done with it,<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>and finally, we confess to the author of the book of Proverbs <\/span>..vanity over vanity, everything is vanity.<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>Psychologists today <\/span>detect a whole range of feelings of futility in those <\/span>10 of people who strive for the impossible \u2014 to achieve direct joy and happiness <\/span>on the way He talks about neuroses, phobias. obsessions. Prejudices, <\/span>hostility… <\/span>Let’s<\/span> listen. What’s one of the most famous says about i<\/span>t psychologists: .. Neuroses, phobias, obsession, prejudices etc. Are the best <\/span>defined as a\u00a0<\/span>person’s<\/span>\u00a0stubborn focus on themselves<\/span>.”<\/span><\/h2>\n

S\u00f8ren Kierkegaard suggests a hopeful way out of an otherwise dead-end <\/span>situation. He says: ..the door to happiness opens outwards.<\/span>\u201d\u00a0<\/span>Go out, <\/span>from myself and from a dominant interest only in making me feel good. And what <\/span>will happen then, V. E. Frankl expresses it succinctly: ..If it succeeds <\/span>bringing a person to a meaningful life, it is easier and faster then <\/span>gets rid of neurons.<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span>And\u00a0<\/span>that’s<\/span> what the representative of the third Viennese school of nurse psychotherapy, says, an expert who spent his full life helping people escape such an unpleasant state.<\/span><\/h2>\n

The joy of contrast. For one characteristic joy and happiness, we want to draw your attention to a conclusion.<\/span><\/h2>\n
