Pop and happiness at work

You’ve gotta watch this video:

Watch his eyes when he talks. That’s happiness at work right there.

Are you as passionate about your job? Do you know as much about your products/field? Do you care as deeply about making your customers happy and helping them make good choices? Are you as free to do things your way, rather than do what everyone else does?

If you are – kudos! I bet you’re happy at work.

If not, I humbly submit to you that you are wasting your work life.

This level of happiness at work is not reserved for a few special individuals who luck into the right career or the right genetic makeup for happiness. Anyone can get it. Anyone!

And it’s not just that you could. You should.

    I love this kind of stuff. Though not my office environment nor that of many people I work with – happiness if an overlooked factor. People need to enjoy what they are doing, as well as where they are doing and with whom. All of these lead to happiness in the work place which increases productivity and employee retention.

    Thanks Alex. I just love this. It made me remember why I want to go to work and love what I do. It’s so important to remember what inspires you. For example, I remember when I was a kid and drawing pictures for hours was pure bliss.
    This is is a brilliant film. What a wonderful person!

    Wow that is one guy that loves what he does.

    You’re right, you can see the passion in his eyes.

    Just goes to show it isn’t so much as what you do, as how passionate you are about it.
