In this moment, former chief business officer for Google X and bestselling author, Mo Gawdat, discusses the happiness equation. According to Mo, we don't realise that happiness is actually very predictable, so much so that it can actually be put into a mathematical equation. Mo says the formula for happiness is: your perception of the events of your life minus your expectations of how life should be. This means, that it's not specific events that cause happiness, but it is the comparison between the event and the expectation you have in your mind of how your life should be going. As a result happiness is all about perception, which means you have the ability to control your happiness and it becomes a choice that you decide.

Show NotesAnne McCarthyHow to Test Full SIte EditingMuseum of Block ArtKey TakeawaysAnne started out as a Happiness Engineer at Automattic, which gives her a unique look at problems users were having and how people were using WordPress.At the root level, web development has gotten harder. There's a bigger learning curve to getting started. BUT theme development, and creating without code, has gotten a lot easier as a result. Part of Anne's approach to testing Full Site Editing is thinking of “all the people I can't see” and how it's going to affect them. This keeps her grounded and driven to make sure the software is as good as possible before it gets merged into Core.Keeping an open mind definitely helps with this. Don't get too attached to the work, and don't take criticism personally. As for testing with a wider audience, people in the WordPress space are going out into their communities and doing group testing. This gets people who may not be checking the WordPress Slack (and might not even know it exists!)Engaging and listening to users is SO important. “We need to listen to the core audience, the biggest supporters if we want the edge users to believe we're listening,” says Anne. In other words: why would lesser-known users want to help when they think the biggest voices in the space are being ignored?As for how you can test better: work with Designers. They think about users and interactions different and can provide a different perspective. Break things into smaller chunks, and as you see patterns, document them!Having several ways to test at varying degrees helps. When it comes to getting feedback, have a structure to get good feedback, but don't create too much friction. Having a way to get “bad” feedback makes way for a fruitful conversation. You want people to feel heard, but guiding them towards the right channels is something you should actively pursue.

We all want to be happy but do we know how? Most of all, do we even know what true happiness is? We are going to talk about this, and get some tips on the matter from The Happiness Engineer himself: Dr. Ali Binazir. The truth is that we started this podcast with the idea to talk about something else “How to be a charismatic speaker” but we got fascinated by what Ali had to say about happiness and how just a few little changes in our life can help with that. Improving our relationships, our sleep, our body, and our mind to be a better version of ourselves — and maybe next time we will talk about speaking and presenting ourself in public… because let's face it: if we feel good about ourselves there is no doubt that our whole public persona will benefit. So let's get started, it is quite easy — well, once you know how! _____________________________GuestDr Ali Binazir, M.D., M.Phil.Chief Happiness Engineer at Happiness EngineeringOn LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/alibinazir/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/DrAliBinazirOn Medium | https://dralibinazir.medium.com/_____________________________This Episode's SponsorsBlue Lava: https://itspm.ag/blue-lava-w2qsNintex: https://itspm.ag/itspntweb_____________________________ResourcesRadical Acceptance: Embracing Your Life With the Heart of a Buddha by Tara Brach - https://amzn.to/3KjiuGzThe Tao of Dating: The Smart Woman's Guide to Being Absolutely Irresistible - https://amzn.to/1VAeq89_____________________________For more podcast stories from Audio Signals: https://www.itspmagazine.com/audio-signalsAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?

It is with such great honor and anticipation that I bring you our first conversation in Season 2 featuring a sweet, newfound forever friend, Karina Hsieh. Karina is a Poet and Entrepreneur. She studied Psychology at Harvard and worked in Silicon Valley as a "Happiness Engineer" before backpacking solo around the world for 1-1/2 years to cultivate her own self-love and compassion. It was in that time that she found herself chancing upon a version of herself that's bursting with words and poetry, which led her to writing her first book of poetry, then leading a t-shirt campaign to raise awareness on #stopasianhate, and now passionately creating a whole world around her new project, Honeymourn. Her journey has been nothing short of synchronicities, those of which that showed up for her because she was brave enough to trust it and go for it without certainty of the outcome. Her kind, warm soul and spirit is one that leaves me in admiration and awe and one that I think we can all learn to lean into and allow a little more of in our lives. In this episode: Find and connect with Karina on her IG @karayhsieh and @karinahsieh_ for her poetry Go to www.generatelove.us to support her amazing t-shirt campaign Support and get her 1st book of poetry, Loving Yourself Into Being @ Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Loving-Yourself-Into-Being-Compassion/dp/1734614307Stay tuned here on both our socials for updates on Honeymourn! Karina is currently listening to: Where should we begin by Esther Perel Modern Love by The NY Times  Come say hello and hang out with me here: Instagram: heartopenconvers_asiansHave a question, thought or feedback to share?

Imagine if you had two years to travel the globe in order to better understand happiness. Where would you go? I'm assuming the Nordic countries who I hear always rank high on the World Happiness Report. Potentially Australia and New Zealand? They seem to be happy down there. What about places that aren't known for happiness but more so the opposite? I feel like it would be important to understand that perspective.   Well, that's exactly what today's guest did. Joining me on the podcast is Dr. Ali Binazir who is an author, speaker, and clinical hypnotherapist. But if you asked Ali today, his primary title would be Happiness Engineer.   During this episode, we are going to dive into happiness, particularly why it isn't something you are trying to find but instead engineer into your life. This is a great conversation to tune into if you've been looking for practical ways to feel more fulfilled. Dr. Ali shares many prescriptive methods that you could act upon today.   Show Notes: [1:42] What Ali learned traveling the globe studying happiness [17:20] 5 Pillars of Human Thriving [21:53] Why do good people stay in bad relationships [26:41] 3 C's of an optimal venue [35:01] Novelty Night [39:13] The story of 3 bricklayers [43:25] Why is sleep so critical? [52:41] How meditation can help balance you in this chaotic world [58:36] How to stay motivated to workout   Favorite Quotes: [11:40] “We are designed to cooperate. That is how this wimpy little creature with no fangs or claws or fur became the most dominant species on the planet.” [21:25] “I always say texting is how I lose friends. Talking is how I make friends.” [34:43] “Just recognize if you're the one that is willing to do that you have a huge advantage but so many people are still cowering in fear.” [43:58] “My time at McKinsey was when I looked like I was on top of the world but I was really at the very bottom.”   Mentions: Together: The Healing Power of Human Connection in a Sometimes Lonely World by Vivek Murthy The WEIRDest People in the World: How the West Became Psychologically Peculiar and Particularly Prosperous by Joseph Henrich Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence by Esther Perel Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams by Matthew Walker Exercised: Why Something We Never Evolved to Do Is Healthy and Rewarding by Daniel Lieberman   More of Ali: https://happinessengineering.com/ drali@happinessengineering.com http://taoofdating.com/ Medium: https://dralibinazir.medium.com/ (I suggest checking out “9 Simple Strategies to Read More Books: How I Read 150+ Books a Year”) Clubhouse: @DrAliB   Books: The Tao of Dating: The Smart Woman's Guide to Being Absolutely Irresistible by Ali Binazir Should I Go to Medical School?: An Irreverent Guide to the Pros and Cons of a Career in Medicine by Ali Binazir   Courses: Super Charisma: How to Be a Transformative Speaker (https://drali.teachable.com/p/super-charisma-public-speaking)   More of Justin & The Struggle is Real: Show Notes: https://justinpeters.co/thestruggleisreal/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justinleepeters/ YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0yHxQvHpSdx_gJiQJpVCIQ?view_as=subscriber Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-sandbox-with-justin-peters/id1496701179?fbclid=IwAR26mTFgNRnMCdJjzA4FHTT6MvLKkuqGbx3rWm7J7UBM8ERVIiIV1Baj0IY Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/701hEq4AKxseYuY79xjpSJ

In the past few years, neuroscience has shone so much new, groundbreaking light on the inner workings of the brain. Graphical scans of human brains have revealed, like never before, the science behind why we feel, react, and behave the way we do. Happiness, among many other feelings that we encounter in life, is now something we can explain as a learnable skill and engineer with intention. This and other discoveries have opened the doors to a profound and powerful new body of knowledge that is expanding how we deal with issues of emotional wellbeing in life and work.In today's episode, we meet renowned Author, Speaker, Trainer, and "Happiness Engineer", Dr. Ali Binazir.My favorite quotes from Dr. Ali, (paraphrased):"The brain was not originally designed to make us happy.

All in all, managed WordPress hosting offers an easy solution for anyone operating WordPress sites, especially if you’re running a business with them. They offer a bunch of benefits with few cons, and will undoubtedly help you save time and skip the stress of manually setting up servers. What is managed WordPress hosting? Imagine a world where you don’t have to think about servers. A place where you can unravel yourself from the hassles of web hosting, and focus your time on the things you’d rather be doing: designing sites for clients, developing custom WordPress themes, or growing your agency. That’s what managed WordPress hosting allows you to do. This type of web hosting is focused on WordPress sites (as you might’ve guessed from the name). That means everything a managed hosting company does is optimized for WordPress, the best content management system (CMS) in 2019. From the way they structure their servers to the people they hire for support, you can trust that a managed WordPress host is truly an expert in your site’s CMS. On top of the hardware and WordPress-expertise, a managed host typically includes additional services and features designed to simplify the burden on site owners.

We live in a world of monetized Jetpack. Gone are the days where commercialized plugins were looked at under a watchful microscope, and leadership at Automattic felt that charging for plugins was, well, plain wrong. Today we're seeing Jetpack as the revenue bridge between .org and .com offerings — and a very big bridge at that. A reading episode of this article: Matt Report - A WordPress podcast for digital business owners How to disable Jetpack upsell ads Play Episode Pause Episode Mute/Unmute Episode Rewind 10 Seconds 1x Fast Forward 30 seconds 00:00 / 00:07:34 Subscribe Share RSS Feed Share Link Embed Download file | Play in new window | Duration: 00:07:34 As the Jetpack team continues to sharpen its marketing fangs around the plugin's messaging, we've seen more meat on the bones of upsell nags. See, I've received an uptick of customers and friends I've helped onboard to WordPress, question its security. Why? Because Jetpack is prompting to upgrade users to their paid backup and security services. Obviously, I have mixed feelings about this, of which, I'll save for the end of this post. For now, here's how you can turn off those nagging Jetpack upsell ads. CODE to disable Jetpack upsell ads TL;DR (Sorry, you'll need to get out your text editor for this one.) Look inside jetpack/class.jetpack-jitm.php, for the filter ‘jetpack_just_in_time_msgs' See this GitHub link. Use this code in your functions.php file: add_filter( 'jetpack_just_in_time_msgs', '_return_false' ); It won't come easy for the non-technical user to disable these ads, you can't simply click a button to squelch these pesky messages. How do I know? After poking around through the nooks and cranny's of the options pages, and expressing my displeasure on Twitter, I took to Jetpack's official support channel. A Happiness Engineer responded, at first thinking, I wanted to disable the ads of their monetization network — it's like a Google AdWords — but for WordPress. After making it clear I wanted to disable the upsell nags, she responded with: Hi Matt, no there isn't a way to remove those upgrade messages in the unpaid version of Jetpack. from a Happiness Engineer Huh, not possible on the free version. Got it. So again, I expressed my frustration on Twitter, a tweet I've since redacted because Elliot reached out to me to set the record straight: Glorious! So you CAN disable these upsells, through a filter for “just in time messages.” A clever name, really, seeing the messages pop-up “just in time” of the users most aware time on screen, a clickable action. Most notable is when the user publishes a new post, and they are presented with making sure their website is securely backed up, conveniently pointing them towards the Jetpack Pro pricing grid So there you have it, if you're sick of Jetpack upsell nags, you can edit the code and it will all go away…for now. Why is this a big deal; what the 1% of 1% care about For most people, it's a “who cares?!” situation, but, for those of us in the product & service space, it's an irritating issue. Let me get this out of the way first: I'm not disparaging the plugin, or the people behind it because I think there's a need for Jetpack. I do understand that Jetpack is a business, even if it was never formally announced or perceived as one — and that's the crux. Issue #1 is it's an Automattic business, tied too closely to the WordPress brand. “An Automattic airline powering WordPress.com” as their tagline reads, with the little WordPress logo next to it. For a massive majority of people, that means it's WordPress, and WordPress is telling them they need to buy something. Issue #2 is when you already have these solutions in place, non-technical users receive a turbulent experience on that airline. As a consultant who recommends the best WordPress hosting, hosting that does all the backup and security for you, a client now thinks I lead them down the wrong path. The very least, it makes them stop what they're doing, question security, and shoot me an e-mail. Now everyone's time is being consumed for something that isn't truly urgent. Then the upsell ad, yeah, it becomes the definition of a nag, because without disabling it, it just repeats itself. From a plugin owner perspective, that is, someone who makes money selling code — excuse me: support — that provides features otherwise not provided in WordPress, Jetpack is the 1-ton Gorilla in the room. What once started as a jack-of-all-trades plugin which seemed to soften the blow of some missing core features, has become an all-you-can-eat buffet of bells and whistles. From CDN to backup, to contact forms, to themes, Jetpack is poised to become the marketplace plugin, a concept which WordPress.org repo banned since the early days. So it's not the fact that Jetpack is a business, or that they are charging money, it's just — well — I wish they just came out with it. And when you have that kind of brand leverage, whether it's fair or not, heck even legal — it's frustrating. If you grew up as a “blue collar” product owner in the space like I did, you feel beat down from the days of submitting themes for approval, only to get rejected for upsell links, or promoting a pro upgrade. A frustration that is amplified by the overall lack of wanting to actually pay for a well-coded plugin. It's hard to make money in the product space, and sometimes you feel slighted for it. Users just want everything for free, because WordPress is free, and then if you ever spent any time promoting a paid solution to the overall community, even volunteers in the space, they look at you like you're trying to rob a bank. Then along comes the “most recommended plugin” on the .org list, because it's Automattic's, and they show up like charging for that pro version — is no big deal. Remember that feeling from when you were a kid and you cleaned the whole house from top to bottom, only to have your parents walk in with your little brother holding the broom, and he got all the credit — yeah, it's like that. Meh. Anyway, since I can feel the burning stares from the Jetpack fans, I'll repeat: nothing against Jetpack or the team behind it, Jetpack, along with Gutenberg, is changing not just the platform — but the very economics of our industry. It's not happenstance, just think of all the amazing Gutenberg layouts you'll be able to buy straight from Jetpack. ★ Support this podcast ★

Dustin's job at Automatic is a success story as a result of his podcast. It really helped to not only show his knowledge of WordPress, but also the community that has grown around him. WordPress is designed so that dealing with the code is not necessary (although it can be helpful). What are some of the other Content Management System's that you have used? Drupal and Joomla are two of the other CMS's that Dustin has used. His experience is that both of these were more complex than WordPress, especially for the user that is not a programmer. He ultimately decided to be a specialist in just one platform, so he went with WordPress. What are some aspects of WordPress that new users should watch for? While WordPress is generally easy, people can still get lost. For example, there are a lot of menu items, but most of them can be ignored. You mostly just need the "Pages," "Posts," and "Media Library." There are many "undo" features built into WordPress, so there are many mistakes that can be fixed. There are some things, though, that may cause more problems, such as changing your theme. Can you explain With any website, there are several parts: Content Design Actions A general rule is to keep the actions/functions separate from the design. There is a "functions.php" file that you can add to in order to include additional features beyond the theme. However, when you change you theme, or the theme is updated, the added code will be deleted. It would be better to keep these things in plugins. What are a couple plugins that you would like to highlight? Jetpack - it has a lot of different modules inside of it, giving a lot of different additional functions for your website. iTheme Security - helps to keep your website secure. Backup Buddy / Back WP up - helps to do a backup of your site and database in case of emergency. Dustin has a list of 50 plugins that he highlights in a free e-book on his site. WordCamps Look into attending a WordCamp near you. A WordCamp is a place to learn more about WordPress as well as a chance to network with others. There are also different giveaways that take place.
