How do u derive ur happiness -2

Here is my sequel to the last post on happiness. In part-1, I discussed some dilemmas I face and think about..Now here comes the answer to those..

What are the things that a man requires to be happy?
I got a book How to Get What You Want Out of Life when I went to my chennai trip a fortnight back and the book is a nice one I felt..

So here comes the answer for the question..How do u derive ur happiness?

There are 4 things that make a person happy:

1. Money : Obvious. You need money to do whatever you want and whereever you go. So it is inevitable that we should earn sufficient money to fulfill our soul dreams.

2. Love : Without someone to love and share evrything, what is life worth? For whom and with whom are you going to do everything you do in life? Thats what..A soul mate will give you a reason to live and spend the moments of happiness and sadness together.

3. Ego Food : Yes..This is called food to satisfy your soul that your are good. If you achieve something and someone Appreciates you then you will get some Ego food..Dont take it wrong because it is Ego food. It is the food required to satisfy your soul..When you helped someone they thank you and you feel elated from heart and that makes you happier than when u take bacardi.

4. Health : IF you want to do anything with life, you need to be healthy. So never ever underestimate this or NEGLECT this..Keep fit..Eat well and sleep well..

So..do an audit..how much money you are getting now and how much you need? How is your relationship with parents, spouse, and others..? Are you doing a challenging job and getting ego food? Are you keeping good health?

Never think that if you are a IT engineer and want to be a camera man for NGC (I wanna be) you cant make it..See the intiatives you have to take and step into the shoes and do them..Nothing is as difficult as it seems to be when you have the motivation and interest to do the things..

Under which one of these four factors - money, love, ego foods or health - would you file an admit to biz school?

On the other hand, on seeing the title of your blog, my wife says that 'flirting with MBA' girls does not really help with happiness! ;-)

all the best in your MBA journey
