The Harvard study on happiness, known as "The Good Life," began in 1939 and followed a group of 724 men throughout their lives to explore what factors contribute to a happy and satisfying life. The study found that close and fulfilling relationships, physical and mental wellbeing, resilience, and gratitude were all important factors for a happy life.

In contrast, the "other" happiness that is promoted through consumerism and social media popularity can have negative consequences on individuals' mental and emotional health. The constant pursuit of material goods and a perfect image on social media can lead to stress, anxiety, and a sense of inadequacy. The true happiness comes from satisfying interpersonal relationships, physical and mental health, and meaningful activities that give us a sense of purpose and meaning in life.

--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know alreay, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practise until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
