Finding Happiness and Decreasing Stress
A lot of people feel the need to spend a lot of money on things that don’t really create happiness. But if we can increase revenue and spend less, we’ll have less stress in our lives and so will live longer.
Spending More to Make More
There’s no real difference between business and personal life in terms of justifying expenditures.
In business, sometimes you need to spend to generate profit, but doing that requires the discipline to consider whether each expense is necessary. In personal life, you may want to buy more because you think that it will bring happiness, but you should think just as critically about those expenditures.
The Importance of Human Connection
Connecting with other people and having that feeling of connection is happiness.
I sometimes do a network audit, which involves looking at your operational network, personal network, and strategic network. Most people fall short in the strategic network, but the fullness of your personal network is often an indicator of how happy you are. So building your personal network is a great way of bringing happiness to your life.
