Tracking Happiness studies
In 2020, we’ve performed a large-scale study with the goal to provide more objective data on happiness topics that are often quoted throughout the internet.
For example, that 40% of our happiness is a result of our internal mindset.
Or that happiness is not something we can control.
Our study aimed to shed more light on these subjective topics. Based on the results, we’ve published multiple articles with unique observations.

Tracking Happiness case studies
Our website tries to combine research with inspiring stories.
Research may provide us with evidence-based facts.
But it’s the case studies and success stories that will hopefully get you to actually take action!
Whenever our readers have an interesting story to share, we want to share that story with the rest of the world.
We’re always on the lookout for inspiring stories and case studies of our readers.
If you feel like you have a good story to share, or if you want to show others what you’ve learned on your way to happiness, I want to talk to you!
