Have you examined that particular assumption or arrived at a definite conclusion that a failure to feel good stems from a failure to (properly) want same?

(An organism may deeply desire something yet still be incapable of attaining it for all kinds of reasons, and not for a failure of wanting, choosing, or even trying.)

Hi @rick, you do ask very pertinent questions. I agree there are other variables that may interfere with the ability to be happy.

Hey @son_of_bob Yes, that is my conclusion as well, even though it could be said to deviate from actualism proper. I explore that deviation in my follow up post to Miguel’s question. FEELING GOOD ! The What, How, Where, When, etc. of It? - #117 by rick

Thank you for sharing the challenges you faced after your accident, and those adjustments you made which you found helpful towards improving your well-being. It’s wonderful that we can exchange notes while trying to figure out, for each of us, what is and what isn’t, and what works and what doesn’t.
