We spend a lot of time at work so it’s not a surprise that we tend to identify our happiness with work, thus recognizing and appreciating your teams if you are a manager is so critical.
@Simple-Indian
Work can give us happiness if we feel deeply engaged with both our work and the organization we work for. If we are excellent at our work but go unrecognized / unappreciated / under-appreciated, it can actually lead to burnouts. Organizations need to create an environment where all employees (every function) feels adequately appreciated for their contribution to the growth of the organization. This also includes the work culture within the organization. Have seen many corporate firms who value certain functions (typically their sales & marketing teams) far more than they appreciate their other functions (typically the low-profile IT folks) who don't 'market' themselves as well as certain other similar functions do, such as HR. If the very function is underappreciated by an organization, there's no way an employee within that function can ever feel happy with his/her work.

I completely agree. Whenever I hear about happiness, I can’t help but think of "The Soul" and Joe Gardner jazzing around, challenging the idea that everyone has just one singular purpose they must find to be happy. That’s not really the case. It’s about living life authentically and embracing all the moments, like buying a coffee for a colleague, building relationships, helping others. It’s all about just jazzing around and finding joy in the little things.

Very true, it doesn't matter what job you do, who you get to do it with is, your manager and coworkers determine your happiness at work. If you hate your job, stop and look around, it's not the job, most of the time your goals, vision and purpose don't align with the environment.

That’s why when people have kids they feel a sense of purpose and happiness. A literal human is dependent on you for survival, what can be more rewarding then that.

I love him. Separate success and happiness in a very clear and concise way. Society has already linked them together for a long time, but everyone should know, don't put other people's standards on you. Figure out what's bringing you meaningfully; that's the key to your happiness.

Yes when I see that my patient is very satisfied in the end of treatment I am very happy. My invnetion made me very happy too.
@goattttttt954
Summary: Often times success in worldly terms doesn't bring happiness like money, fame, power, etc etc Happiness comes from earned success and service to other people Earned success is the opposite of learned helplessness which is when you feel no matter how much you do it won't make a difference.

Greatness is in SERVICE.💥
@r8chlletters
Engaging and satisfying absolutely. Far too many people are in thankless and boring jobs and it makes for a really unhappy experience.
@KeepItSimpleSailor
If you do a job that matters to you, feels like it’s achieving something good, and pays well - yes, some happiness can be derived from work. But then someone will generally come along, bureaucratise the job, create roadblocks, and generally mess everything up.
@isatousarr7044
Work can contribute to happiness, but whether it should be the sole source of happiness is a nuanced question. Many people find fulfillment in their careers, especially when they feel their work is meaningful, aligns with their passions, or allows for personal growth and contribution to a greater cause. Research supports the idea that jobs that offer autonomy, a sense of purpose, and opportunities for mastery are often linked to higher levels of job satisfaction and well-being. However, relying too heavily on work for happiness can lead to burnout or neglect of other life aspects, such as relationships or personal interests. Achieving a balanced approach where work complements, rather than defines, happiness is essential for long-term fulfillment. Work can be a powerful source of joy, but it should be part of a broader pursuit of a well-rounded, meaningful life.
@MrBostonian100
100% agreed. Bosses who often take over the responsibilities of their team members (mostly with good intentions) should understand this.
@riteshkarmakar5540
Basically bosses need to think about appreciating employee.

Omg that’s a charisma! Loved this person
@ryanschneer
Success and happiness comes from a feeling of accomplishment
@nancye7520
This was extremely helpful to me today. I realize what’s missing now— and I’m hoping it’s not too late to turnaround the learned helplessness brought on my Covid’s isolation (it turned out to be permanent in my Company. We went fully remote.) Im also on my 4th manager change in 2 years. I write and illustrate training courses, and I never even know if people took the courses I wrote or not. Work does feel as though it’s meaningless.
