Explain any two determinants of happiness that you have experienced.

Answer 1

I have experienced these two determinants of happiness are as follow:

1. Self-Esteem: Having a positive evaluation of one’s own self is positive self-esteem. This enhances the confidence level of the individual and their ability to approach challenges more constructively. This results in greater incidences of being successful, thus adding to his happiness level.
2. Perceiving meaning in life: Research shows that an individual who does not experience meaning in life tends to experience more negative emotions like boredom, frustration, depression, loneliness, etc. Therefore it is the responsibility of each individual to create a unique meaning and have a purpose in his own life to ensure happiness.
