"何かがあなたにとってどれだけ良いかと、それがどれだけ楽しいかの間には逆の関係があります。"

Simplified Meaning:

Often, the things that are really good for us, like eating vegetables, exercising, or getting enough sleep, don't seem as exciting or fun as things that are less healthy, like eating junk food or staying up late to watch TV. For example, think of how kids prefer candies over vegetables even though vegetables are healthier. Adults face the same dilemma, like choosing between working out or lounging on the couch binge-watching movies. This idea suggests that while the fun options might give us immediate pleasure, the healthier choices provide long-term benefits. It's important to find a balance and sometimes choose the less fun but healthier options to stay well and happy in the long run. Understanding this can help us make decisions that support our overall well-being, even if they aren't as enjoyable in the moment.
