In his TED talk, “What makes a good life? Lessons from the longest study on happiness,” Waldinger
says that while many young people tend to think that fame, fortune, and hard work will bring them
happiness, it’s actually our social connections that are most important for our well being.

Three Lessons on Well-Being and Happiness

In this popular talk, which has garnered more than 20 million views, Waldinger explains the three
lessons the researchers learned. First, having social connections is better for our health and well being
—and conversely, loneliness kills. Second, having higher-quality close connections is more important
for our well-being than the number of connections. Third, having good relationships is not only good for
our bodies but also for our brains.
