Quotes About Set point

One person's emotional set point can be very different from another person's, which is why we notice people who seem naturally happy or naturally glum.

Research suggests that your happiness set point as well as circumstances and recent events accounts for much but not all of your happiness level. What about the rest? That's due to our behavior, and the good news is, in contrast to the others, this factor is very much under our control.

If we know what that set point is, we can predict fairly accurately when you will be in flow, and it will be when your challenges are higher than average and skills are higher than average.

This set point reaction, this relational modus operandi, is your relational stance, the thing you will do over and over again when you are stressed.
