translated from Spanish: “Happiness Expert” of the Argentine government would have depressed

Daniel Cerezo is an “happiness expert” advising the government of Argentina, and especially the cabinet of President Mauricio Macri had, holding thematic talks to explain to the secretaries of state – among other things – “what is it it ties to poverty.” As reported by the infobaires, the social psychologist by profession, who until last year worked as manager of “Happiness and Culture” in a espadrille factory, entered the eye of the news hurricane at the end of April of this year, the date on which he participated in a cabinet meeting at the Kirchner Cultural Center, along with political officials of the Trans-Andean official, such as Margarita Barrientos and Héctor “Toty” Flores, among other ministers and legislators of Macri’s party, the PRO. In the Cerezo instance he pointed out things that caused media stir, such as “We are all poor for what we lack and rich for what we can give.” He also sensed that “the worst poverty is losing the ability to dream, to project” and that “eradicating poverty is not just about giving food and not even work, eradicating poverty is about giving you dreams and hopes.” Now the happiness expert returned to the former in the neighboring country from an interview with News magazine, where he confessed that he became depressed from the over-exposure he lived. He also claimed that he was offered various positions in more than one ministry, but that he did not want to get into politics anymore. Cherry said: “The media automatically took a false note that he was the new advisor or guru of happiness. I’m the least of a guru. Apart from this new government has an issue with happiness, but it is to simplify some important things. Then I fell into a stormy mouth that made me rethink a lot of things. At least, what I was looking for in that talk was to bring a different voice. I would have done it with any other government. I sought to carry my message, even against many of the measures they took. Then the truth is, I decided to step aside.” The happiness expert added that “Then they started calling me to dig deeper and that’s where I said no. I wanted to take a look and that was my position. And I think you have to be very prepared to work in the political sphere. Everyone was saying to me, “Take advantage of this moment,” and I’m not interested in taking advantage. What I see about politics is that they do anything to sustain themselves. So that waist I don’t want, and I don’t have. I was called from many ministries, no matter which ones. I got to go to an interview. But before I left home, my wife said to me, “Don’t let my ambition win you,” he said.
