Description: Man is a social creature, he relies on generations of social development.
>“The abstract concept “society” means to the individual human being the sum total of his direct and indirect relations to his contemporaries and to all the people of earlier generations. The individual is able to think, feel, strive, and work by himself; but he depends so much upon society—in his physical, intellectual, and emotional existence—that it is impossible to think of him, or to understand him, outside the framework of society. It is “society” which provides man with food, clothing, a home, the tools of work, language, the forms of thought, and most of the content of thought; his life is made possible through the labor and the accomplishments of the many millions past and present who are all hidden behind the small word “society.."

Description: We cannot be satisfied, and thus we remain unhappy. Also, we may want things that are bad for us because of environmental influence
>"happiness depends on mental constructs rather than on the realities of life. People can be unhappy in perfect conditions because they want more, and be happy in misery because they acquiesce. Lasting happiness is again unlikely because any improvement is overhauled by a rise in aspirations. At best we can try to slow down such adjustments by preaching modesty
>Standards of comparison are individual mental constructs which do not necessarily fit any real requirements for a good life. People may want things that are actually bad for them and fail to want that they in fact need. This is especially likely if propaganda and fashion seduce them to reach out for the wrong things."

Description: The multiple processes by which past behavior predicts future behavior.
>"Past behavior guides future responses through 2 processes. Well-practiced behaviors in constant contexts recur because the processing that initiates and controls their performance becomes automatic. Frequency of past behavior then reflects habit strength and has a direct effect on future performance. >”
