The first day you'll be happy.

The second day will also be happy.

It's free money.

But the third day you'll be less happy because soon you'll realize that 50 euros a day will make you much, much happier than just five.

Then all of a sudden, five euros just doesn't cut it anymore.

And this is exactly the numbers trap.

It's a trap that I and many of my friends fall into, and it has nothing to do with money.

It has everything to do with numbers way.

As humans attach a lot of our happiness, satisfaction and feelings on numbers the higher number of Instagram likes.

You get happier, more accepted.

You feel higher number of goals.

Your football team scores happier, you feel Theo.

Higher number of dollars.

You make happier you feel.

But here's the kicker.

Numbers never end, so in theory you can always get higher and higher numbers to get even happier.

When I first realized that I was shocked, annoyed and devastated because I, like many others, attached a lot of my happiness to numbers, number of followings, number of views, number of monkeys, number of friends, you name it.

And even when that number got through the million's, I felt as if.

Why not more?

Why not tens off millions?

Why not billions for this is the numbers trapped in full force were even billions of dollars Don't make you happy.

Bob Marley knew the strap is unhealthy and warned against it.

Money is numbers and numbers never end.

If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end.

That's how I realized with help off my girlfriend family handball, Marnie that a true sense of happiness and satisfaction should only be linked to humans and not number theme, family friends should be.

What makes you truly happy?

Not a number of Instagram likes or dollars.

See, I can't claim that I am better than others and that I figured out a way to rewire my brain.

I am not successful yet, but every day I try to care a little bit less for the numbers and a little bit more for the humans.

Morning.
