Balancing Free Time and Happiness
Research indicates that people can be unhappy when they are busy but also when they have too much free time. The study revealed an interesting finding of an upside-down U-shape pattern. People with too little time were unhappy, as well as those with an excessive amount of free time. This paradox highlights that individuals often desire free time but can quickly become dissatisfied when they have an abundance of it. The scenario of eagerly awaiting leisure time only to feel frustrated when finally experiencing it is a common phenomenon.
