When people talk about "happiness," they are talking about self-esteem. If you're measuring your "worth" against another person's achievements (regardless of perception), you've already lost the plot.
Catching up on old articles - really love these suggestions. Oh how I wish national service were mandatory - but I am not hopeful… Some of your arguments remind me of Rutger Bergman’s Humankind: A hopeful history. Not my favorite book (or author), but tries to make this same point. Thank you for advocating these things!
