Comments on the Four Levels of Happiness
I try to teach my child to look
for Level 3 happiness. I think it is a much healthier way to study and life.
Some salient points to be noted
are:
1.
The theory is not to
say that higher level happiness is more important than lower level happiness.
All four levels are important to our well beings and have their unique values in
enriching our life.
2.
It is rather to say
that pursuing higher level happiness is more meaningful than lower level
happiness.
3.
If pursuing Level 2
happiness, one would not be really happy in all of the following situations: i)
losing; ii) drawing; iii) winning. People in ii) are never satisfied with
themselves. People in iii) are under a lot of pressure to continue to perform.
4.
People develop
contempt or a condescending attitude towards losers if Level 2 is their
dominant mode of happiness. Interestingly, others will show the same attitude
towards them if they lose.
5.
People who are
learning to switch from Level 2 to 3 may go through a stage of comparing
magnitude of contributions, which is a Level 2 idea. Actually, pursuing Level 3
happiness is not about comparing the magnitude of contributions. Also, the
amount of contributions may become more or less as we grow older and it’s
alright.
For more details, please refer
to the book: “The Spirit of Leadership, Optimizing Creativity and Change
in Organizations” by Fr. R.J. Spitzer (2000). Also see “Five Pillars of the
Spiritual Life, A Practical Guide to Prayer for Active People” by Fr. R.J.
Spitzer (2008). Both books are available in CityU library.
