On Facebook,David Bortman posted: Harvard’s happiness study concluded that the happiest people are those who are the least self-conscious.

Isn’t self consciousness related to ego? (This was/is a hard one for me, having been in the goldfish bowl of the entertainment industry for all those years). Little children don’t have it-as we get older, we gain awareness of self, the ego, and then have to learn, over a lifetime, to undo it a little! As you become less self conscious, the ego has less control, and happiness can burst forth.

What do you think?
