Why winning a Bronze Medal is more satisfying than a Silver.
Isn’t it odd that winning a bronze created more happiness than a Silver Medal? That is the facts according to psychologist. In NLP, this is similar to a contrast frame. If you frame an achievement against what you “lost”, the emotions are less. The true path to unhappiness is to constantly compare yourself to those that have something slightly better than you.
