institute opened its doors last year, and since then, men and women of all ages have been paying $140 an hour for lessons on how to feel great“you can actually increase your happiness levelsthats what we teach,” said timothy sharp, founder of the instituteexperts say that only about 15 percent of happiness comes from income and other financial factorsas much as 85 percent comes from things such as

you how to overcome these unhappiness factors by focusing on “more than just your bank account”“if i compare my self to bill gates then im always going to be down,” said sharpa better thing to compare
