The Happiness Equation
Is happiness a choice? Is it predictable? It would seem so, in the view of happiness expert, Mo Gawdat, author of “Solve for Happy”. In fact, he has a Happiness Equation. His experience with losing his son in a tragic event, distilled a complex truth into a simple realization: the journey to happiness or unhappiness is seldom straightforward. He argues that happiness isn’t about external events but our reactions to them. For example, rain can cause happiness or unhappiness depending on our desires in that moment — when you want to water plants, rain makes you happy. If you want to sunbathe, it’s got the opposite effect.
Healthy intensity and difficult conversations
Intense leaders have an impactful presence: they inspire their teams when they share their purpose and focus with compassion and vulnerability, as a result, they are able to drive their teams toward success.

A crucial aspect of healthy intensity is the courage to engage in difficult conversations when such situations occur.

The Power of Calm
Some of us have a natural capacity to find and project calm in the chaos. For others, this is less obvious, and our emotions take over. While our emotions are our most precious guide in many ways, in times of crisis we must know how to take them by the hand to make them work for us.
