Happiness means subjective wellbeing and positive emotions. Persons with greater wellbeing are more satisfied with their lives, and experience more positive emotions. Excitement, joy, and serenity promote success at the workplace. Happier people are more satisfied with their jobs, receive greater support from co-workers and better performance evaluations
THE AIM OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS is the attainment of happiness. We all desire a life that is free of sufferings and diseases. There are two kinds of happiness or Ananda – one is temporary which is worldly and the other is eternal.
Hard work and material success do not ensure the attainment of happiness. Sometimes, happiness or Ananda remains perpetually out of reach to even the most successful and the rich, since this success only brings cars, houses, and material luxuries.
Happiness means subjective wellbeing and positive emotions. Persons with greater wellbeing are more satisfied with their lives and experience more positive emotions. Excitement, joy, and serenity promote success in the workplace. Happier people are more satisfied with their jobs, receive greater support from co-workers and better performance evaluations from their supervisors. Moreover, people who are made to feel positive emotions are capable of setting greater goals, persist at challenging tasks longer, view themselves and others more favorably, and definitely, believe that they will succeed.
How can this be achieved in a business environment? A leadership that can provide for its workers and staff a platform that includes balancing of energies, removing deficiencies in the work environment as well as establishing harmony with Mother Nature besides communicating a clear and transparent administration can achieve even the most difficult goals.
