Einstein's most famous theory is the General Theory of Relativity. This theory made history when he published it in 1915. At the time he made the groundbreaking realization t that the speed of light is a constant and that the law of physics always maintain the same form. The theory also became a theory of gravity. The basic idea says that planets bend space and time around themselves. Things fall towards the ground because they're actually falling towards the middle of the Earth. The Earth is pulling space-time toward itself.

Above is the actual piece of paper with Einstein's handwriting. it was written seven years after he published his work on the theory of relativity. Just like that on a piece of stationery from the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, Einstein would share insight that can impact our lives forever. Except for this time, his theory wasn't rooted in science and complicated tests.

This time, Einstein tried to find a formula for happiness. He wssn't doing this to make money or solve great scientific tests. After all, what was the point of trying to make sense of a world we weren't happy in? He simply wanted to hand it to a messenger boy as a tip, promising that it would be worth a lot someday.

Einstein was right when he offered the young boy this incredible advice, but he never could have predicted how much his words would actually be worth one day.

The writing on the note was simple and to the point. Instead, Einstein’s words were simple: "A calm and modest life brings more happiness than the pursuit of success combined with constant restlessness."

Nice And Simple

Just like he said happiness would be, Einsetie's words were modest and simple. There would be no long essay explaining what happiness is, how it works, and the magic formula to achieving it. That would defeat the point of the rest that happiness is meant to bring.

Stop The Chase

If you think about it, Einstein's theory of happiness is a lesson that many of us could use today more than ever. We live in an extremely fast passed environment, that encourages a "just push through" it mentality so we ignore the signs even when our mind and body are screaming at us to just slow down and stop chasing success or the next thing.

ADVERTISEMENT

We work strict jobs that make us feel stuck and like we have to work ourselves to the bone to reach fortune and success. We set unattainable expectations and spend our lives feeling disappointed that we're not there yet.

But what if instead of always looking at how to reach more power, success, and money, we stopped to enjoy what we already have? What if we stopped trying to fit into ideals and thought about what actually makes us happy and went after that instead?

At that point it's easy to find that happiness is already all around us, in the people we love, in nature, and in the small things we keep ignoring to find bigger and supposedly better things.

Psychology Today explains how happiness isn't defined by a singular source of joy. You have to allow yourself to be uncomfortable to actually be happy. Happiness comes from accepting your genetic makeup, your family of origin, your environment and your relationships.

In acceptance comes power. No matter how much you've been wronged by people and circumstances, happiness comes from reminding yourself that while you couldn't control what happened to you, but you have complete personal control over what you make of it.

We're Always Chasing

Einstein suggested a calm and modest life brings more happiness. In calmness and modesty, there is healing, acceptance, mindfulness, gratitude and the influence of these factors creates genuine happiness.

Frank T. Andrew, professor of psychology explains: "We work very hard to reach a goal, anticipating the happiness it will bring. Unfortunately, after a brief fix we quickly slide back to our baseline, ordinary way-of-being and start chasing the next thing we believe will almost certainly – and finally – make us happy."
