People are talking about feelings. Even men are doing it. All around there is a new concern with our own inner life and with how other people feel. A new, gentler culture is emerging. By contrast, the older culture, which still dominates, encourages people to aim at personal success: good grades, a good job, a good income and a desirable partner. This culture involves a lot of str: and people wonder why we are not happier. The answer is surely the ultra-competitive nature of the dominant culture. Its objective is succes But, if I succeed, someone else has to fail. An alternative culture offers a different aim: that we should of course take care of ourselves, but we should get as much happiness as possible from contributing to the happiness of others. Competition, it argues, is valuable in the right context but what we need between individuals is cooperation, not competition. In recent years, the rise in competitiveness has been made worse by the advent of social media, which have encouraged self-advertisement and made more young people feel inadequate, anxious, depressed and “left out”. In addition, it has encouraged populism, which is a challenge to a cohesive and loving society. A shift of perspective is central to the happiness movement, which is about the importance of our feelings —our quality of life as we actually experience it. We can become more effective as creators of happiness, both as citizens and workers. Adapted from an article by Richard Layard, The Observer, 19-01-2020 Part I. Reading Comprehension Al.
