Happiness Is Not Something That Happens ...

We Cannot Deny The Facts Of Nature, But We Should Certainly Try To Improve On Them.

Sir John Templeton: "my Ethical Principle In The First Place Was: 'where Could I Use My Talents That God Gave Me To Help The Most People?'"

Happiness Is A Condition That Must Be Prepared For, Cultivated , And Defended Privately By Each Person.

Half A Century Ago, The Austrian Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl Wrote That Happiness Cannot Be Attained By Wanting To Be Happy - It Must Come As The Unintended Consequence Of Working For A Goal Greater Than Oneself.

A Paycheck Is A Sufficient Impetus To Motivate Some Employees To Do The Minimum Amount To Get By, And For Others, The Challenge Of Getting Ahead In The Organization Provides A Satisfactory Focus For A While. But These Incentives Alone Are Rarely Strong Enough To Inspire Workers To Give Their Best To Their Work. For This A Vision Is Needed, An Overarching Goal That Gives Meaning To The Job, So That An Individual Can Forget Himself In The Task And Experience Flow Without Doubts Or Regrets. The Most Important Component Of Such A Vision Is An Ingredient We Call Soul.
