“You know what’s the happiest animal on Earth? It’s a goldfish. You know why? It’s got a ten-second memory.”

Simplified Meaning:

Imagine a small fish named a goldfish. This goldfish is considered the happiest animal in the world because it only remembers things for ten seconds. This means that if something bad happens, like bumping into the glass of its bowl, the goldfish forgets about it almost immediately and doesn't stay upset for long. Now, think about your own life. Sometimes, bad things happen that make you sad or upset. But if you can quickly forget about these problems, or not dwell on them too much, you might feel happier. Just like the goldfish, moving on from bad experiences quickly can help you enjoy life more and not get stuck feeling down. So, whenever something small goes wrong, try not to think about it for too long. Focus on the good things happening around you. This way, you'll be more like the happy goldfish, always ready to swim joyfully and look for the next fun moment in life.
