In Search of the Rich Life Equation

Updated: Nov 16




As background, I have been a researcher on an initiate to explore fresh perspectives on achieving happiness and personal fulfillment, proposing a novel "Rich Life Equation" that goes beyond traditional approaches. The team led by the esteemed Professor John Longo have developed a formula that considers multiple factors contributing to a rich and fulfilling life, with time as the fundamental currency.The equation, Rich Life = (Self-worth + Control) * (Money + Relationships + Healthy Living + Flow), incorporates elements from various seminal studies on happiness and well-being. It emphasizes the importance of self-worth and control as multipliers, recognizing their crucial role in amplifying the effects of other factors like money, relationships, health, and flow state.

This holistic approach acknowledges that happiness isn't solely dependent on financial success or any single factor, but rather a complex interplay of various life aspects. The researchers propose personalizing the equation's coefficients for each individual, recognizing that the weight of each factor may vary from person to person. This innovative framework provides a structured yet flexible way to think about and potentially optimize one's life satisfaction, offering a unique tool for both personal reflection and further empirical research in the field of happiness studies.


I will keep you updated on future developments on this no base lines project. See the attached presentation for more details.
