Chinese happiness formula: Happiness equals supply divided by demand

If so, I am afraid that a considerable number of people will answer that the Chinese are not happy. Why? Because China is still poor, per capita income is still relatively low, there are many flaws and loopholes in the system.　　China's urban villages, there are many unfair damage to the interests of citizens, it is infuriating ... This, perhaps, is the truth. However, it concludes that the Chinese are not happy.　　This conclusion, I am afraid, is not necessarily correct. Are Chinese people happy or unhappy?　　First of all, listen to what foreigners say.　　A few years ago, there are Western tour groups to visit China, the end of the visit, the capital of a media sent reporters to investigate, asked them, you think, the Chinese people, happiness is not happy?　　More than half of the tour group said the Chinese were happy.　　Some add that although China is not rich, people here are happier than us. And why?　　Investigators some puzzled, the Chinese people than you, material, life, are very difficult, much worse, why do you think the Chinese people happy, even happier than you? The foreigner's answer is, in China, it's safer.　　The common people in your country have no guns, live at home, walk on the road without fear of danger at any time.　　This example, although not typical, but to a certain extent illustrates a truth, life is safe and unsafe, for people's well-being, very important. It also illustrates the truth that a certain demand (such as security needs) can be satisfied and people feel happy.　　Conversely, this demand is not satisfied, people will feel unhappy.　　At this point, old Jayne was about to sell his "happiness formula". Several years ago, in order to understand what is called happiness, people live One life, how to find their own happiness?　　Old Jayne, who likes to use his wits, has invented a Janes "happiness formula".　　The formula is: happiness equals supply divided by demand.　　That is, happiness is in direct proportion to the supply of human (material and spiritual) and is inversely proportional to the human (material and spiritual) needs. In other words, the more abundant the supply (material and spiritual), the happier the person will be.　　The more unsatisfied the demand (material and spiritual), the more unhappy people will feel. "Formula" invented and published, a friend once said to me, old Jayne, your formula, there is a truth. However, only know the formula, do not understand the demand, or can not solve the problem.　　What do you think people need? I said, what exactly do people need?　　This question, the experts and scholars have a lot of views, different, but, we are more generally accepted, think that the comparison of the feet of the argument, or the famous psychologist Maslow's psychological needs five level theory. What is called psychological demand five level theory? Maslow's needs are divided into five levels.　　From low to high in turn, physiological needs, security needs, ownership needs, respect for demand, value demand. Mr Ma believes that these needs, as long as one is born into the world, will naturally arise. and human satisfaction with these needs, generally, always from the lowTo the high, one layer to achieve. For example, the lowest level of demand, physiological needs, that is, a person's life down, you have to eat full wear warm. Can not meet this demand, people will suffer, feel unhappy.　　The small baby will cry loudly, the adult will be able to scratch heart, shame. Eat enough, wear warm, next, you have to meet a higher level of security needs. That is to say, people feel safe at all time, live in sureness, not fearful, not hurt (including physical and mental harm). In the previous example, why do foreigners think Chinese people are happier than them? Because of their security needs, not be satisfied. You see some corrupt officials, although fishing so much, the right to have potential, but he does not feel happy. Why?　　Because he is afraid that someone knocks at midnight. Next, is the need to belong. Refers to the existence of life, must have a clear sense of belonging. You have to really feel that you belong to which country, which nationality, which group, which family. Does this country, nation, group and family accept you and agree with you? The need for ownership is not satisfied, people will feel lonely, helpless, alone, as if people suddenly dumped on the earth, very lonely, very uncomfortable. Why do people go abroad, earn so much money, live in large villas, and open a BMW, or do not feel happy? Because of their need for ownership, it is difficult to meet.　　If you have any more money and room, others will treat you as an outsider, not agree with you or accept you. Next, respect for demand. It's good to understand that everyone needs respect from others. If this demand is not met, and even discriminated against, it would be very painful to be looked down on. On the contrary, people and society respect, and even reverence, the person will feel happy, very happy. Why do people want fame most?　　Because, fame, easy to be respected, where people have to look at one. Finally, the highest demand, is the value of demand. The so-called value demand, also called self-realization value to achieve demand. Life, can not live in vain, have to do some business, to make a point, to the world to leave something. Make a career, leave a contribution, people feel valuable, will feel happy. We intellectuals, general demand for low-level requirements is not high, a little to eat warm, that is very satisfied, but for the realization of self-worth, very important, high demand.　　Therefore, some places to attract talent, not only to have a good life treatment, political treatment, more importantly, to enable others to display their talents, to do a career, realize self-worth. Belongs up, people's needs, not to say how complex, more mysterious, in fact, so five.　　Five requirements one is satisfied, you can almost say that I am a happy person.　　Are Chinese people happy? This answer, I am afraid, only the Chinese people can answer.
