Summary
Strip the Veil of Habit (The Deadening Effects of Habit)
One of the main reasons that we don't experience joy and happiness in life is because, through our habit of seeing things, we stop seeing things. As this happens, our hearts often become melancholy with life. We can change this by removing the veil of habit.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the happiness podcast. I'm Dr. Robert Puff. Do you want to know a secret? The world is full of beautiful things. But sadly we are |
| 0:20.6 | missing out on them because of our habits |
| 0:24.8 | About a month ago. I went on vacation to a beautiful country called Iceland |
| 0:30.3 | If you haven't been I'd highly recommend you go, because they have the most spectacular natural |
| 0:36.8 | wonders that would rival anywhere in the world. |
| 0:40.0 | The waterfalls there are almost innumerable and when you see them they'll take your breath away. |
| 0:47.1 | And because I was there for two weeks I probably saw 30 to 40 of them and like I said, truly spectacular. |
| 0:54.7 | But I noticed something when I was there. |

| 1:05.5 | whether they were up close or a hike |
| 1:08.2 | I would stop when I get there |

| 1:27.0 | because I'd seen so many on the trip, each one of them had their own unique flavor, and I really enjoyed and savored my experience of each one of them. |
| 1:38.0 | But what I notice with the majority of the people is they would walk up to the waterfall, be in a hurry, not often smiling, |
| 1:46.1 | just getting to their destination, turn their phone on, take a picture or have someone take a |
| 1:50.9 | picture of them, smile. and once the picture was taken, they'd often |
| 1:55.3 | go back to their curmudgeon self. |
| 1:57.8 | It was rather sad because shortly after that, almost immediately, they would leave and go back to the car or hike down the trail. |
