Stumbling on Happiness: Why We Misjudge What Makes Us Happy — The Illusion of Tomorrow

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.

This episode explores Stumbling on Happiness by Daniel Gilbert as a systems-level analysis of how the brain’s prospection system influences behavior, belief, and decision-making outcomes.

By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or events, the episode shows why these systems persist — and how they connect to larger cognitive, cultural, and economic structures.
