In the quiet, protective, productive ambiance of your corporate cube, do you find happiness?

Experiencing life rather than simply surviving it can bring enjoyment for a lifetime.

A functioning mobile phone can be happiness (mine’s not).

In New Media you will find happiness, grasshopper.

Happiness requires you to make sacrifices.

Happiness is a secluded campsite with no power, no WiFi, no cell signal, and good coffee.

Happiness is found on a motorcycle, running down the open road.

Happiness is realizing that everyone has an agenda, and you pursue your own.

(That’s ’30’ in the title for all you pervs!)

I’d imagine that many of you are curious about why I have these “Happiness nnn” posts.  Since leaving corporate life, I’ve been writing down everything and anything that I find a bit of happiness in.

The purpose, I think, has been to work towards looking at things more simply, and maybe creatively.  While I had not spent as much time climbing the corporate ladder as many (about 10 years), I really found it eating away at my soul.  I didn’t like the person I had become, the way I approached or viewed things was bothering me.

So one of my techniques that helps me to be creative is to stop and think about what makes me happy.  When I think of these, I write them down and use them for a “Happiness” post when it fits the day.  I hope these are of value to you, but I have to admit that I post them mostly for my own benefit.

To be happy, you must be willing to risk your position.
