Of the big five factors in happiness–flexible schedule, imagination, diet, exercise, and sleep–my pick for the most important is exercise.

About This Quote

One of the five factors that heighten our sense of happiness is exercise. We can exercise in a way that has little to do with working out, and we can exercise in a way that has nothing to do with working out. Exercise is an activity we engage in for many reasons, but one of the most important of these is because it makes us feel good. We feel better when we move our bodies than when we don't move our bodies.
