The Ripple Effect: How Your Happiness Changes the World
Research by Dr. Nicholas Christakis shows that happiness spreads through social networks up to 3 degrees of separation. This means:
- When you become happier, your friends become 15% happier
- Your friends’ friends become 10% happier
- Your friends’ friends’ friends become 5% happier
In a country of 1.4 billion people, imagine the impact if even 1% of us committed to real happiness!
Your individual happiness journey isn’t selfish – it’s the most generous gift you can give to society.
