Hey everybody, welcome to Freedom Fastlane. This is Ryan Daniel Moran, and it's the first

podcast in a while, so please forgive me for my long absence. It has just been crazy around here

at the FFL Studios. Just recently we reopened

the tribe and we had a whole bunch of new people and we're still kind of cleaning up everything

that has been going on with the launch of the tribe and just a bunch of really awesome creative

minds entering group.

So please forgive me for my long absence.

But I promise you that I'm going to make it up to you with today's show.

Because today's show is about something, actually, let me put it this way.

I'm preaching to the choir today.

It's something that I have spent a lot of time thinking about and a lot of time really outlining in both myself and other people's lives. And people often will come to me for help on this topic. And the topic is happiness. And what really makes up our happiness and what really

makes up our well-being? And I have become somewhat of an expert on this topic only because I

struggled with it for so long. Happiness to me has been something that has been very elusive for a long time and

really going deep and learning what the makeup of our happiness is has set me free to experience

abundant happiness, which is something that a few years ago I could have never said. And when we talk about these things, we are talking about the fabric of our lives. We talk a lot about business and money and investing here on Freedom Fast Lane. But really, what is the driving factor behind why we want happiness or wealth or passive income in the first place?

It's because we all want at some level to feel better.

We want to experience happiness.

And there are different ways that we express that we want to experience happiness.

And one of the ways is through getting more, creating more, experiencing more.

And I think that that is a very healthy thing in our pursuit of happiness.

You know, it's interesting.
