Our society often measures our worth by success, getting the better job, going to the better school, getting the better car, but after you get those things (or you don’t) the goal posts are moved (AGAIN) and your mind tricks you into not being happy and as result that may make you less able to get to your goals . Neuroscience is a field of science that is exploding with the use of the MRI and the analysis of Neuroimaging. I invite you to listen to this TED talk and find a simple daily practice that will create lasting change. After just 21 days of this practice, not only did people feel happier and less anxious and depressed, they found they were 31% more productive in the workplace and the classroom.
It’s called the happiness advantage.
So if you want to be more successful, be happy.
Here’s the list on what you have to do:
THINK (or better yet journal) 3 Gratitudes
JOURNAL ABOUT ONE POSITIVE EXPERIENCE IN THE LAST 24 HOURS
EXERCISE
MEDITATE
RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS
