Comments on: A Forumla for Happiness: LC = BP http://davideckoff.com/2009/03/a-forumla-for-happiness-lc-bp.html On Innovation, New Media & The Bigger Better Deal Tue, 20 Jul 2010 08:49:11 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Melissa Hootselle http://davideckoff.com/2009/03/a-forumla-for-happiness-lc-bp.html/comment-page-1#comment-735 Melissa Hootselle Wed, 21 Oct 2009 19:47:17 +0000 http://davideckoff.com/?p=627#comment-735 I've learned that for me, happiness is dependent upon feeling loved, being loving and being responsible. Fear and victimhood are huge blocks to achieving true happiness and make receiving love virtually impossible. People tend to take love out of the equation in their work lives, but the truth is, we haul our human needs around everywhere. When we feel unloved at work, we cannot be successful. Our happiness creates success and attracts others. I think neither LC or BP are as important as I once thought as long as I have the foundation of happiness that comes from feeling loved. That's what I'm looking for! I’ve learned that for me, happiness is dependent upon feeling loved, being loving and being responsible.

Bigg Success is life on your own terms. You own your life so you choose the terms by which you live. Don’t let others place them upon you. Live each day by those terms, doing all you can to reach the next level of success. Some days you will win; others you won’t. But no matter what, over time you will find yourself moving toward the life that you dream of living. Knowing that you have done all you can today to live your life on your own terms will make you happy! We recently changed our tag line for Bigg Success. Bigg Success is life on your own terms.

I was fired in December from a newspaper web site in Toledo, Ohio, and I am building my "non-expert" social media skills and trying to stay in shape to maintain focus. Thanks for the encouragement from your words. Dave, found your January comment on scobleizer blog – http://scobleizer.com/2009/01/12/if-you-are-laid-off-heres-how-to-socially-network/.

Dan Gilbert explained the mental process of synthesizing happiness. The reality is a bit counter-intuitive. As soon as we accept a situation our brains can embrace it and create a feeling of happiness. The oddity is that when stuck with something we can "decide" that it's favorable quicker that if we have many choices to vacillate on. Good stuff. http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/dan_gilbert_asks_why_are_we_happy.html Just watched a great TED video on the subject the other day.
