LEARNING LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE MISERABLE AT WORK, EAT TASTELESS FOOD AND FORGET TO LAUGH. THE TIME TO LOVE YOUR LIFE IS... NOW! LOVE: Your Job THE HAPPINESS ADVANTAGE: The Seven Principles of Positive Psychology That Fuel Success and Performance at Work SHAWN ACHOR Conventional wisdom holds that if we work hard we will be more successful, and if we are more successful, then we’ll be happy. If we can just find that great job, win that next promotion, happiness will follow. But recent discoveries in the field of positive psychology have shown that this formula is actually backward: Happiness fuels success, not the other way around. When we are positive, our brains become more engaged, creative, motivated, energetic, resilient, and productive at work. This discovery has been repeatedly borne out by rigorous research in psychology and neuroscience, management studies, and the bottom lines of organizations around the globe. In The Happiness Advantage, Shawn Achor, using stories and case studies, explains how we can reprogram our brains to become more positive in order to gain a competitive edge at work. LOVE: Your Self WELLTH: How I Learned to Build a Life, Not a Resumé JASON WACHOB Eat. Move. Work. Believe. Explore. Breathe. Connect. Love. Heal.Thank. Ground. Live. Laugh. These are the building blocks of Wellth... and in this blend of memoir and prescriptive advice Jason Wachob shows us all how to enjoy truly ‘wellthy’ lives–lives that are deeply rich in every conceivable way. “A wellthy existence is one in which happiness is attainable, health is paramount, and daily living is about abundance. It’s a life in which work is purposeful; friendships are deep and plentiful; and there’s a daily sense of richness or overflowing joy”. [Amen Brother! – Ed] spring 2016 | wo magazine | 69
