The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin

-



Happiness is a choice. If we want to be happy there are many reasons to feel warm and lighthearted, sky is the limit. The same thing goes if we want the other way around and to be fair sky is also the limit.

That is why on her critically successful book “The Happiness Project”, Gretchen Rubin defines the many facets of happiness and the steps on achieving real happiness in life.

With her witty and thought-provoking resolutions and splendid truths about happiness, readers are given a clear and concise guide on how to get closer to that pot of gold.

The book is divided into 12 parts which is on a monthly basis guide with each month focusing on one or more happiness factors following other subtopics. From organizing your cluttered room to creating your own blog, the book has everything you need (even answers to your questions!). You will also experience surprising discoveries as you read the book. So I guess you should read it then.

Why is happiness a choice? Because no matter how difficult our life is and how bombarded we are with the endless of problems we encounter, we can always choose to be happy. There’s always a choice: to continue living a life of misery or to make a decision to stay happy despite life’s uncertainties. With this choice is the conviction to follow each steps and resolutions allowing change to happen in your life.

In the end you’ll be inspired to create your own happiness project. Not all happiness projects are the same, so you’ll need to be unique and creative with yours. But if you’re on a rough patch and you only need a reading material for a fresh perspective on “Happiness” this is the best book for you.

You can visit her blog and learn more about the project.

LSS: Crying Season by UDD

Nothing hurts more than the pain of not given the chance to say goodbye... UDD encapsulates such a journey of emotions around a sensitive topic with Crying Season---a tear-jerker of a track, one of my favorite song from their self-titled album. For context, below is an excerpt from Armi Millare's Facebook page posted on October 21, 2019, explaining the message behind the song. "I know it is midday, totally out of the blue but someone had asked about what Crying Season is all about. It was written for our fallen comrade, the band’s best friend-Sherwin De Guzman, and two other friends who had succumbed to their struggle with mental health. It has been difficult to grasp none of them are here to talk to us about it, but maybe let me try from my end of the spectrum." As someone who had a similar experience, I'll try to break down the lyrics based on my own understanding and from my perspective. Verse 1 Is this the end or beginning? The song starts with a question: Is thi...

My Unforgettable Pointwest Experience

http://www.ericmackonline.com/ICA/BLOGS/emonline.nsf/dx/DrawingFishBowl.jpg/$file/DrawingFishBowl.jpg It is a tradition among Pointwest trainees to undergo the last stretch of their bootcamp training by having a revalida. Revalida is a rite of passage for trainees before they enter the corporate world (which in PW is also called as the “floor”). It is a Q and A portion of some sort where the soft skills of the trainee will be put to test over a series of situational questions. As per my usual self it was a difficult feat to venture into. I was not that eloquent and fluent in my articulation that sometimes I stutter and eat my words before these were even blurted out. The revalida is just simple. The trainee, before fishing out one question from a fish bowl will first have his bestest performance (this too I believe was included in the overall revalidation assessment) to knock the panel’s socks off. By the way the panel is composed of Practice Heads and Managers. So no stres...
