What, what do you understand by happiness? What, what, what does, does that actually mean in a scientific sense as, as you talk about it in this book?

Uh, there is no one definition for happiness.

I lean more on life satisfaction because it is less about how someone feels in the last twenty-four hours, more about how they evaluate the shape of their life, which is a closer what we actually mean when we ask how people are doing well.

Imagine a ladder from zero to ten.

Zero is the worst possible life you can imagine, and ten is the best possible life.

Where do you stand right now? That's the question behind most of the big global happiness ranking.

This is a really starting point of my book.

So, so what is it that the international benchmarks are missing? What, what are they failing to see about Central Asia?
