One of the top five regrets of dying people is missing out on time spent with family and friends. And research backs up the idea that being around loved ones will make you happier.
Dan Gilbert, Professor of Psychology at Harvard said: “We are happy when we have family, we are happy when we have friends, and almost all the other things we think make us happy are actually just ways of getting more family and friends.” Meaning, don’t be so reserved that you miss out on making new friends and building the relationships you already have.
