The happiest people are those who are very busy but don’t feel rushed. Who among us are the most happy? Newly published research suggests it is those fortunate folks who have little or no excess time, and yet seldom feel rushed. I know, you’re tired. You want a break. But doing nothing is not the answer. Too much time is a burden. Surveys continue to show the least happy group to be those who quite often have excess time. Boredom, it seems, is burdensome.
So what do you need to be doing?
Things you’re good at.
"Signature strengths" are the things you are uniquely talented at -- and using them brings you joy.
People who deliberately exercised their signature strengths on a daily basis became significantly happier for months.
Via The Happiness Advantage: The Seven Principles of Positive Psychology That Fuel Success and Performance at Work: When 577 volunteers were encouraged to pick one of their signature strengths and use it in a new way each day for a week, they became significantly happier and less depressed than control groups. And these benefits lasted: Even after the experiment was over, their levels of happiness remained heightened a full month later. Studies have shown that the more you use your signature strengths in daily life, the happier you become.
The old saying, “those who do what they love never work a day in their life” seems true.
