ingorance is bliss....
if you have low expectations....you can be happy easier....
but if you your intellect, you have higher expectations from you life, thus harder to be satisfied and be happy
I absolutely love this man's accent.
I think this guy is underrated. His creativity is phenomenal.
I disagree. I don't think Sagmeister is underrated at all.
To those asking about the 7 rules...(and those who think it's tl;dw)
1. Thinking about ideas and content freely - with the deadline far away
2. Travelling to new places.
3. Using a wide variety of tools and techniques.
4. Working on projects that matter to me.
5. Having things come back from the printer done well.
6. Getting feedback from people who see our work.
7. Designing a project that feels partly brand new and partly familiar.

I love it when people get lucky in life and think it was because they did something right and now they have all the answers to success and happiness.
You're right , it happens all the time
Well I come from Wales where it's quite cold and rains a lot and I can tell you now that I'd be happier in a nicer climate!
I have watched this a few years ago. And now watching it again. Learn something new every time :)
Did anyone else get the sense that this was little more than a massive self plug?
I mean, this guy wasn't offering any specific idea or something to think about, he was just showing off all of his projects, failed ones too, and saying "look at me, isn't this great, aren't you proud of me?"
I don't have anything against his projects, but he didn't even try to incorporate them into a theme, even the title is misleading, he briefly spoke on happiness but the rest was his own personal slide show.
I agree. At the same time though, it was exactly what i expected to be from a designer.
this doesn't only apply to people who make 50k a year. STOP THUMBING UP that! ...it just makes you look stupid because you haven't watched the rest of the presentation. This video is somewhat hindered by the language barrier but he actually brings up some really neat things!
@Kirbynessness Usually intelligent people are good at picking things a part. But some times what we need is the fullness of the view!
You're a rockstar Stefan!
Thanks! Дякую!
If you wanna be happy emulate happy people
A Stanford professor told me that most of the Ph Ds he knew were miserable people. I was working at his home for a couple days, and I guess my spirit, curiosity, and practical skills impressed him. I went to college but decided afterward to do something that I had a passion for, rather than something that paid a relatively high salary, with benefits, in a manipulated and subsidized market.
Intellect supports ego, and ego can lead a person down a mundane path.
7 rules

Personally i think these 7 ideas are good but may not work for everyone so make up some of your own and Make it work babe..
@Torcika
The situation is kinda the same here. We need it to make ourselves happier, for example to buy stuff for ourselves and for the loved ones, but in those countries, where average ppl can only afford their monthly food, and aren't able to buy anything else, then their happiness is f*cked up. In those countries, where ppl don't have to work like a dog for a minimal income, they surely can afford to buy stuff, like iPhone and such. But I'm satisfied with my life and consider myself happy.
Lovely video that can motivate quite a number of people. Thanks.
@vapaapalestiina i think you missed the point... he is saying that IF you do make more than $50k a year all ready, any further increase in income is unlikely to greatly affect your happiness. It is a stat that defies the common notion that we would be happier if we were richer.
@Piitsi Definitely, one needs to not only understand how individual pieces work but also how they all relate to and interact with each other in the bigger picture.
These videos are so helpful for me.
I'd start with "Take good care of your health". It's hard to enjoy yourself when you are tired, fatigued or depressed. Go for a brisk walk and eat some vegetables, every day. You'll feel better.
@Joxman2k Wouldn't you agree that the search for happiness is a universal theme? Some of the insights that I've gotten from this talk that I would like to share with you in case you didn't catch them 1) Most of our decisions in life are surprisingly, unconscious. 2) The basis of happiness isn't really how much you make, or how you look like. It depends on the relationships you have 3) Traveling widens your perspective 4) You don't have to compromise yourself- do what you love to do.
Where are the SEVEN rules???
I just loved his presentation on the screen...
Cool animations, that was my favorite part.
The biggest problem is that we have been conditioned to equate happiness with stuff, while the reality is that stuff is just stuff.
Beyond what this guy says, having a distinct purpose in life (which may explain the religion/happiness connection) will make for happiness in spite of the lack of essentials.
He also didn't mention the importance of gratitude and generosity as foundations of happiness.
I wish my surname was Sagmeister. That's just brilliant.
@neoautism TED isn't only Scientific. It delves into Artistic too. The D in TED stands for Design (Technology, Entertainment Design). Our outer reality mirrors our inner world. Focusing on making happy design projects means nurturing the happiness inside. Yes, some people will agree with him and some will not. I am one of the people who are inspired by this artist. A Sasha Cohen Baron flick doesn't jive with appreciating Stefan Sagmeister so I guess that's why this talk didn't work for you
@neoautism TED's job from my perspective is to inspire other people... if you are not inspired by these people, keep it to yourself, but dont call them pointless/unsuccessful because like you said, if its internal, then why should you even bother and be part of the comment section if you have nothing useful to say, especially if you dont understand the point of these videos, sometimes its to teach about something new, and sometimes its to try and inspire.
i dont know what i just watched but the videos were kinda cool
Happiness is primarily dependent on the active realization that your life isn't all about you.
~shrug~ Start from there and see what happens.
I think everyone knows' these but neglect to take action on some of them. Its hard when you need to make money to support yourself, but if you do at least one of the suggest tips it may bring you that little bit of happiness and can work towards it. But stress less and enjoy life is my motto.
I like this talk. It is inspiring.Happiness is vital in our life. Neither money nor other things is not important ,I think. Happiness and again hapiness
@Torcika sorry i missunderstood, it looked like your comment was saying you cant be happy because you can not drive as much as you would like to, thaught you just loved driving or something :P
Good subject, but this presentation wasn't very focused at all. If you're interested in the pursuit of happiness, I truly recommend reading Jonathan Haidt's The Happiness Hypothesis. In short: Happiness = basis (emotion) + circumstances (some you can change, some not) + free activities (social, acceptance, values).
@Joxman2k it was meant to inspire, if you dont feel inspired, then dont watch the videos, being jealous is fine, but dont project it in the comment section
I've a question..................
Can Paul choose between Paula and Paulina?
@Torcika I don't own a car and I smile every day.
awesome talk! :)
@AniAddictDaisuken He's a designer -- it's mainly an excuse to show his animations. But I still liked it.
First, I didnt really get what he was trying to say because of his English but after trying to ignore the language part and seeing his work I did understand. Thankyou for the presentation and enormous work that you did in my country, Bali-Indonesia!
@AniAddictDaisuken with the unconscious bit with the eggs he is saying (altho he doesnt explain it too well) that our unconscious mind, driven by the suggestion of our names will drive us to make certain decisions.
That's why there are a lot more Georges in Georgia, Denis's that are dentists and Paulas that marry Pauls than one would expect statistically
@Piitsi yeah... marketing... making people buy stuff they don't need for a price they can't afford and still feeling good about it.....
I think his rules began to shift towards the designers, especially starting from #5 xD not everyone works with a printer... and will wonder whether it'll print well or not.
I think you've got some great stuff here
@vapaapalestiina the TED talks cost about 500$ to attend, so yeah, its expected.
@orangepeelpeel
Every living thing wants to be happy and not suffer. Some people just don't want to hurt anymore, so they avoid pain, which is different than wanting happiness.
1) I agree most behaviors are unconscious, but decisions, by definition, require a conscious process.
2) Relationships are the key, but not necessarily between people. It is the relationship between perceptions.
3) I agree
4) Sometimes we have to compromise to achieve a deeper level of happiness
:)
:P
What are the 7 rules?
@brunofujii
Actually i love my job, i get up and can't wait to go. The issues i am bring up is, that the advice from the video is not very helpful the individual who doesn't enjoy his job. If all it takes to get on TED is to say, i find i am happier when i am doing what i want to do when i want to, well then there are millions of people who's comments on TH-cam are far more beneficial. Including yours about, not complaining more then needed, and that we as people over complain unnecessarily
It's a good talk and it doesn't have to be "new" information to be special. A lot of TED talks are based around a combination of ideas from the same inspirational authors in our history anyway.
@CrayonVlogger
Done, thanks for the brilliant advice. Lucky that i had one. But i can see how your advice would have helped me get that job. You advice is about as helpful and insightful as the advice in the view. And that is my point. Stating the obvious is not usually of much help
For people who watch a lot of TED talks (or so they profess) it is interesting to me how much most of the commenters on this video lack imagination.
Take the things he talks about and consider them as principles which can be a applied to anyone's life.
Read between the lines and you will find some very profound ideas.
"Blinded by self-importance.... the visionaries of society haven't the vision of a blind musician nor the perception of a churchmouse_"

~~Albert Einstein
@Piitsi That makes sense, I honestly thought there was going to be 7 guidelines to increasing happiness. I got marriage makes a huge difference.......but that's it. On marketers being bullshitters.....that is dead on!
@david0aloha Well maybe you misunderstand me because I definitely don't mean intelligence in terms of the capacity for absorbing absolute knowledge (the way it is most often used). What I mean is rather the ability to critically analyze and digest information provided into the best possible solution for whatever problem there needs to be solved, and if one dedicated the effort into introspection and analysis of one's own emotions then they can figure it out (not perfectly of course).
mind blowing
What I want to do in order to be happy doesn't involve functioning in any society or under any government. What in the world am I supposed to do? Die?
@Kirbynessness "Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know." -Ernest Hemingway
I love it
Great stuff
Whether you are happy or sad comes from simple comparison of perception of realities.
I can be happy, even though I'm homeless, because I have the ability to walk.
I can be sad because, even though I'm a billionaire, I've lost the love of my life.
If you really want to know what is important to you, just imagine the people, and what they would say about you if you were to die right now.
Then compare that to what you would wish them to say about you.
:)
:P
Wanna be happy?
JUST BE YOURSELF
(and yes, it's a balance that will probably take most of your life to «master»)
(oh, and this advice is NOT for the sociopaths, the serial killers, the pedophiles, etc. And the «yourself» thing may be difficult for schizos...)
Cheers!
Enjoy your life while it lasts!!
@spacecoke no because he cant get to work and provide a living for his family. The biggest source of unhappiness is not when you cant provide for yourself, but when you cannot provide the world for your loved ones
@illisssy well that would be because he says this is my PERSONAL list
What is this? Please post more informative videos.
I missed what the 7 rules were.
Whats the song that plays in the beginning??. ITs killing me
@RoZZ92
Yeah, that must be the case. But it looks like most of the ppl feel the same D=
Talented guy!
I like!
I do have to second the sentiments about the lack of umm.... enlightenment, received from this video about personal happiness. I think that basically it can be summed up by the quote in video (paraphrased) "do more of what you wanna be doing, and less/or none of the stuff you don't wanna do"... This however is not helpful because well lets be honest, i am going to go to work tomorrow despite not wanting to, because i need to pay rent. So yeah, it might for him, but not so much for me average joe
I'm an intellectual, I read a lot, and I'm unmarried. I'm also sociable and very happy. Why are these things presented in dichotomy?
AUSTRIA HELL YEAH!!!
I just watched an unsuccessful attempt of a very creative artists to try and describe his beautiful work as part of happiness, forgetting that happiness is internal feeling and that his own happiness is just his own projection. Some people would love his perception, others will not. From a TED presentation I expect a little more scientific approach :)
PS, at the beginning I was sure I'm watching a trailer to a new Sasha Cohen Baron as Bruno movie :)
@AniAddictDaisuken
No you simply don't know what the kind of happiness he's talking about is, i would guess
All men by nature desire knowledge.
Why does this have so many dislikes?
@Torcika
No 13th month then?
@cks1001 Ah, my mistake for missing that important word then.
This was a repost.
@yudy92
Umm how would I know if I'm inspired or not if I don't watch the video? I wasn't aware of any rules about being able to comment or not. Tell me what they are.
@TheGymPress
The best payment you can receive, for doing something you love, is the ability to do more.
The best payment you can receive, for doing something you don't love, is to be fired.
... so that you can have the opportunity to start doing what you want to do.
Passion has a way of pushing aside perceived roadblocks.
:)
:P
@regardsgiveway I think the term for that is deadpan
Ok, give me beer, chips and youtube and ill be happy!
people are very negative in the comments.
how interesting.
@Obstatic I agree.
I don't get this. Am I stupid or something, or the video does not make any sense?
This video makes me sad. :(
Maybe because like me they were confused by what the heck he was talking about. I know it was about happiness but. It didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to his presentation
@quakey987 How to be a millionaire: 1) Publish a book telling others how to be a millionaire.
I beg to differ.
I was "thrown out" of Canada, so... living where I would like to live? No.
I do not get to choose my partners. I am a heterosexual male. Thus, I have very little say in the whole thing - women decide for me.
And to top it all off, I can't simply choose a profession. I need to survive, so I need to choose something that is at least somewhat in demand and that I am skilled at.
What a great world it would be if we all had as much freedom as he portrays it.
There's the premise that working makes happiness, that is totally wrong in my opinion. I don't know how can you enjoy travelling now, more than in past centuries, when nature was pristine and you didn't need to have an income to do so.
I always wondered what Arnold Schwarzenegger would look like, as a woman. Now I know.
@Kirbynessness
Traditional notions of intelligence have very little to do with happiness - at least past a certain point or threshold. Intelligence also doesn't have anything to do with figuring out complex emotional feelings.
@Torcika move
He's wrong about climate, that makes a HUGE impact on your happiness. Try living in Northern Europe and tell me otherwise.
El dise;ador de Happy
This makes me want to lift weights for some reason....
Talented guy! Too bad it has nothing to do with "happines". :o
Everyone knows already.
