When I was depressed I realized this: First, happiness is a tool, not a constant state. It's nature's way of telling you: "good, you like this, more of this, please." Same goes for sadness, it tells you what you don't want in life. Second, we usually fantasize about happiness, we dream of things that we believe would make us happy and we chase them, despite not really knowing wether they'll makes us happy or not. However, we never fantasize about things that would make us sad, it would be a waste of time, because we're not rooting for those things to happen... So, in conclusion, instead of trying to figure out what would make you happy, figure out what makes you sad. It's way easier to spot, it will be based on facts, not fantasies. Then stay away from those things that sadden you, till you can be calm and peaceful. That state of mind is open to happy moments, which will happen every now and then while you stay away from things that undermine you. And this is way better than forever chasing the never ending shadow of an ever expected happiness.

He's talking about happiness vs fulfillment. Happiness is easy but fleeting. Happiness is a bottle of whiskey or a perfect cheeseburger.

Rogan is correct; for most people, not all, happiness is something to be cultivated. It’s a state of mind, of attitude. It’s not easy but over time it can be developed or “cultivated”. It’s achieved by having a purpose, having goals, small and large, meeting and overcoming challenges. All these things bring meaning to life and without them we condemn ourselves to a life of unhappiness and misery. It’s difficult, at first, but it becomes easier over time and then it becomes second-nature.

Happiness isn't complicated. It's actually fairly simple. The problem is that people chase happiness as outcomes. When we don't get what we want, we feel unhappy. But you can be happy without those kind of conditions.There's the happiness that comes from getting what you want, but there's also the happiness in being content with who you are and what you have. Meaning is what we gain by the way we choose to engage with the world (goals, projects, relationships), and happiness comes from the contentment we feel for who we are and what we have have in the moment.

Honestly, living in the United States and living in Europe made me really see what Americans are missing out on. Proper transportation and infrastructure. Sure the roads are paved nicely, but in many parts (or at least the parts I have been in) lack side walks or people on those side walks completely. Over in Europe or even in Kenya, Nairobi you will be walking down the street and its bustling with life. It just really feels like in the US that life is gone. So many people I knew in North Carolina and in the Tampa area in Florida just lived inside all day either in an office or in their homes, there was 0 connection to the beautiful outside world. You can't really blame the people though, because you are just that one weirdo if you try to make a change by yourself and go out, no one is going to join you, especially if you just moved there and know no one.

Then their judgments about work and meaning can get really strange because they just forget that most people don't have loads of time and money lying around. Maybe your experience has been different. I just know a bunch of people who got wealthy in tech when I worked at Blackberry before the crash and I saw the same thing happen in most of them. Not all of them. It was pretty bizarre.

I agree with Joe on this one. It's never constant. We do however, improve in the way we view things and our attitude towards life, and that can bring us contentment and peace. One of the things that I find make me unhappy is uncertain, uncertainty worries me and prolonged worry sends me into a depressive state. But I become aware and start doing things that I have done to help myself or get help for myself before.

Joe's spot on about having negative people around you. While watching these video, I always get inspired, set up workout routines, diet plans, the whole nine yards and it sticks with me until I go to work or the rest of my house gets up and see everyone lying around, eating crap, smoking and complaining how shitty they feel. When I'm around that you feel like an outsider for wanted to not eat something or go out for a run, they look at you like somethings wrong with you or your apart of some health fad. It's really oppressive and I don't think most of us can combat it without a lot of personal stress.

Sounds like your mother has had a very difficult life indeed. I applaud you for speaking on her behalf and for standing by her. In spite of all that it sounds like she has still strived and done what she can with in her ability to be positive and happy. Your mother's circumstance is exceptionally challenging, so obviously she will have limitations in many regards. That does not, however, mean that she doesn't possess the tenacity to flourish in other areas, where she can. God bless you for encouraging and helping her as you do. Often when one becomes disabled physically they become stronger mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Not an easy task, and I will not make light of your mother's situation but we all have the ability to strive, even though it may not be in the physical sense. My heart goes out to you and your mother. Best wishes!

Everything Joe is saying is what I see everyday in the Army. So many people quit hard courses because they’re negative and it wears them out. Being positive is challenging at times but it makes doing the difficult things a lot easier. Enjoy the process, embrace the suck.

In the past 16 months, I've quit Methadone, Vyvanse, Lyrica, Latuda, Celexa, Cymbalta, Buspar, Social Media, and am now working on Smoking/Vaping. I'm working towards a goal that improves my life and makes me happy. That's the key, to always work towards something better.

I like hearing people talk about their philosophy of happiness. Really happiness isn't the problem for me, the problem for me is keeping a good attitude when life is difficult

You need to master the control of your emotions and your mind. Once you’ve done that nothing can get to you. Your invincible because your mind and emotions are the most powerful things. I have mastered it and nothing effects me negatively you have to look for a positive out of everything while also acknowledging the mistakes you made but just overcome them

My aunt runs an inspirational quote page. She’s in her 60’s and it connects her to a lot of other people. It’s a pretty popular page and running it makes her really happy.

I don’t always agree with Joe, but I have massive amounts of respect for how open-minded and thoughtful he is. Seems like he tries to be a good human.

The thing a monk said that finally made me understand it is that everyone is meant to play this game of life, but within the game, some of us need to stand outside of the game looking in - and so some of us must sacrifice.

Joe at his best right there, I took so much a way from what he said and applied it to my life, and it's helped a lot.

Exactly. Most people are responding in comments that they can’t find happiness because they aren’t as fortunate with a financially sound life like Rogan but they are missing the point. It’s all about perspective. Perspective is reality, and the mentality you carry when you approach each hurdle in life dictates how you feel about the world and your own situation. Everyone has their struggles whether it’s money, health, family. Happiness in life is truly what you make of it and how you perceive your life. And happiness doesn’t mean being happy 24/7 every second of every day. It means being happy with your overall stature in life.

So many types of abuse occur at multiple levels of life each day. For you to flippantly reduce the suffering of so many to a case of hemorrhoids... If your life is going well, I am happy for you. But not everyone is that lucky. Seeing other perspectives and exercising compassion are learned behaviors. They require practice. Give it a try. You may be in need of a little compassion yourself one day.

She says she was very fulfilled in spirit. She prayed 5 times a day in quiet reflection in between teaching students. She fell ill and had to to leave at age 35 and while on a visit with her sister, met my dad. 30 years and 5 kids later, she is fulfilled in a different way.

You're right, the simple things like food, being in nature, exercise all ties in too. But I have to know: what high-quality sweets are you talking about?! Also, I think that fulfillment and happiness are linked. I found that I was feeling happy after I did work that had meaning for me and I knew that it was helpful to other people. I'd just get to my car after work, and sitting there for a moment, I felt really free and happy. It lasted just a little while, but I realized that I was on the right track and if I wanted to be happy, I had to keep working in that field.

Nothing in life worth while has ever been easy. The last minutes of this video truly sums it all up. Anybody that seeks out constant comfort will have constant misery. JR is one of the few objective interviewers out there. The discussion about meditation is very limited. Vioassana meditation requests that you meditate for 10 hours a day for 10 days for the initial retreat. The object is not happiness, but to struggle through profound difficulty to have realization. That is similar to every single aspect of life.

This is genuinely one of the most beautiful speeches I’ve ever heard

He hits the nail on the head here. Both of them. It's so fascinating how human history is mostly the struggle for survival. But our ancestors didn't have the luxury to be bored. Even though I love modern life, it takes away our need to fight for something. I used to hate the idea of challenging yourself, but eventually learned that trying to live life by coasting and doing the bare minimum just leads to boredom and unfulfillment.

I love the motivation I been depressed since I was like 7 my mom told me and it still gets back to me at points in life from all the traumatizing things but I try my best to use it as motivation to keep me thriving for more I’ve lost friends for their beneficial reasons and family from their judgements at the end of the day the only thing that I have is myself and to help others to keep me going and not feel depressed

this line of thinking is what i have learned actually works for me. the more uncomfortable positions i put myself in, the more well rounded of a person i become. at first, its hard to convince yourself to do them but once you get started, eventually you grow to LIKE things that you would have strayed from.

I feel like I would love to do what Joe does because I love real conversations. We all do. That’s why we’re here. And I think many of Joe’s viewer base would also enjoy a career that involves talking to people a lot, but in a meaningful way, not a “hi how are you? Good. Thank you, come again!” sort of way. Just an idea for anyone else struggling to find a fulfilling purpose in life.

I am a pretty happy person. What makes me happy.. is good sleep, and walking. Both so underrated.

It's funny how I started at zero or one and added a couple of things 😂😂 am I gonna be okay? Maybe I'm dead already 😂

Respect to the guy for letting Joe speak his mind without stopping or interrupting him.

True happiness is taking the talents and gifts you have inside and expressing them outwardly. Fleeting happiness is taking pleasure from the outside and taking them in.

Happiness is an emotion. It comes and goes. It’s not a chronic state. Joe, you are right on. I have lost so many… Friends I guess I could call them friends but they’re not friends anymore because they’re so negative. My boundaries are set but I’m really having a hard time finding a new friend group of positive loving people.

BRO EVERYTHING JOE ROGAN SAYS INSPIRES ME, HE JUST SAID HAPPINESS IS LIKE HUNGER, ITS A MANAGEMENT LEVEL AND YOU CAN BENCHMARK IT. THAT IS SO TRUE, YOU CAN CONTROL HAPPINESS HOW YOU WANT TO BY DOING THE THINGS YOU LOVE. AND JUST KEEP REMINDING OF YOURSELF OF THE LOVES DAT MAKE YOU HAPPY. TRULY AMAZING. LOVE YOU MY BOYS

When anyone ever tells me they don't care, I reply with "you do care, you wouldn't have said it if you didn't"

Hi Joe, understand what you’re saying about us humans needing to push ourselves to become better or to stay happy and healthy. But, honestly, sometimes what we need is not more challenges and having something pushing us even more. Sometimes we need love and attention and a feeling of belonging to something. That’s what so many people are yearning for. At least in my opinion.
