The psychologist named a problem that interferes with human happiness

Psychologist Lyubov Naumova said that the habit of postponing life for later may be related not to laziness or lack of organization, but to psychological attitudes. In an interview with Radio 1 on Thursday, November 5, she replied that many people are constantly waiting for the right moment for happiness.

They postpone traveling until they raise their income, buy beautiful clothes until they lose weight, and rest and personal desires until they complete important tasks or solve family problems. However, Naumova warned that some difficulties will inevitably be replaced by others, so ideal conditions may never come. As a result, a person has been preparing for a full life for years, instead of enjoying the present.

The psychologist emphasized that small joys don't always require a lot of money or special circumstances. Sometimes it's enough to set aside a weekend for a short trip or to fulfill a long-standing desire. The expert advised to think about which plans are constantly postponed until better times, and try to implement at least one of them now.
