Some people think if you are happy, you are blind to reality. But when we research it, happiness actually every single business and educational outcome for the brain. Why do people have this social about happiness? Because we assumed you were average.

Our daily decisions and habits have a huge impact upon both our levels of happiness and success.
, happiness is a choice. It is a choice about where your single processor brain will devote its limited resources as you process the world. If you scan for the first, your brain really has no resources left over to see the things you are grateful for or the meaning embedded (嵌入) in your work. But if you scan it the other way round, you start to acquire an advantage.

A few months ago, I was picking up the children at school. Emily, another mother that I knew well, rushed up to me. She was full of .
“Do you know you and I are?” she asked. I could answer, she gave out the reason for her question. She had just returned from renewing her driver’s license at a government office. The woman desk asked her what her “occupation” was. Emily hesitated, how to answer it. “What I mean is,” explained the woman, “do you have a job, or are you just a ...?” “Of course I have a job,” answered Emily. “I’m a (an) .” “We don’t ‘mother’ as an occupation ... ‘housewife’ covers it,” she said.
I forgot all about her story one day I found myself in the same situation. This time it was at our own Town Hall. The clerk was a woman.
“And what is your occupation?” she asked. What me say it, I do not know. The words simply jumped out. “I’m ... a (an) in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”
The clerk stopped, her ball-point pen in mid-air. She looked up she had not heard right. I repeated the title slowly.
“Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “just what you do in your ?” Coolly, I heard myself , “I have a continuing program of research in the laboratory and in the field. I’m working for my masters (the whole family) and already have credits (令人增光的人或事物) (all daughters). I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). The job is more challenging than most jobs and the are in satisfaction rather than just money.”
There was an increasing note of in the clerk’s voice as she in the form. As I drove into our driveway(私家车道), I was by my lab assistants — ages 13, 7, and 3. Inside the house I could hear our new experimental model (six months) in the child-development program.
I felt successful. Motherhood...what a great !.
