So my latest obsession is learning about all things personality related.  It was something which I felt it would be interesting to look into in more detail based on my experiences with my Happiness Project.  In short, a major finding is that although we can all move the needle in a more positive direction, what exactly leads to a happier life for me is probably not identical to what would for you due to our individual differences.  Starting out that project, I remember reading Gretchen Rubin's argument that one of the keys to happiness is self-knowledge, and she says that "we can build a happy life only on the foundation of own nature, our own values, and our own interests…[and in her] own case, [she] found that the more [her] life reflects [her] nature, the happier [she] becomes."  And after a year of trying all different happiness and positive psychology strategies and activities I can say from firsthand personal experience how true that is. However, although I did learn a lot about myself and what does make a difference in my own subjective wellbeing, I was also mesmerized by the alternatives that might be better suited for others.  Therefore I decided to make my next area of in-depth study (for fun only - not quite as serious as that may sound)
