akira the don - chasing meaning lyrics

all right, uhmm
here’s a study from
gilmore health news
pursuing happiness
as a goal often fails
to make people happier
here’s why
i think that makes sense
the reason you can’t pursue
happiness is
it’s not a thing
it’s not a thing
you can’t pursue happiness
you could pursue a wild animal
you could pursue a ball
that’s rolling downhill
you could pursue a car
you could pursue a dog
because those are all real
but happiness you can’t pursue
you could end up happy
but you can’t pursue happiness
there are two things
you can pursue
that’ll get you there
you can pursue meaning
meaning
chasing meaning
chasing meaning
you can pursue meaning
meaning
chasing meaning
chasing meaning chasing

so you’re doing something
that’s helpful to other people
it’s usually being useful
you’re either having children
and you’re doing a good job
of being a parent
or you’re doing a job
that’s important to the world
or inventing something
or you’re doing
what elon musk is doing
trying to save the world
those could give you meaning
those could give you meaning
but if the only thing
you did were
hard work
it wouldn’t make you
very happy either
because you’d just be
burned out
and wouldn’t be
much left of you
so
here’s the scott formula
for happiness
you can’t chase it
don’t chase it
but you can let it happen
by doing other things
that are right
so i would say
you want to spend
about 80% of your time
chasing meaning
meaning
chasing meaning
chasing meaning
you can pursue meaning
meaning
chasing meaning
chasing meaning

now, that could include
the time it takes you to
tie your shoes
and put your clothes on
and shave in the morning
or put your hair together
because that’s all important
to getting anything done
but the 80% should be
making sure that it’s directed
at some kind of useful
something
now, if you’re young
you don’t have
as many opportunities
so i would say
if you’re trying to date
and your ambition is to
someday have a family
that’s great
then dating
dating is exactly
what you should be doing
even if it doesn’t look like
this specific date is working out
you’re
chasing meaning
chasing meaning
that’s still good
you can pursue meaning
meaning
chasing meaning
chasing meaning
you can pursue meaning
meaning
chasing meaning
chasing meaning

if you’re chasing meaning
80% of the time
and then 20% of the time
you’re chasing pleasure
you’re going to be fine
if you chase pleasure
80% of the time
you’re going to be
dan bizarre?
bilzerian
and eventually say
“you know what
turns out that sleeping
with five women a day
may be a lot of pleasure
but not a lot of happiness”
so 80+20 is your
best target
80% trying to either be
part of creating more people
which is good for the world
or doing something
something useful
and 20% pure pleasure
now, if you don’t get
your 20% pure pleasure
you just will fall apart
we just require some pleasure
every day
if you get too much
you won’t be happy
if you get too little
you won’t be happy
80+20 is a good mix
adjust accordingly
