Happiness at Work

There's an interesting discussion going on about happiness and especially happiness at work on Linked In. Research apparently indicates that 60% of happiness is due to genetic make-up and circumstances (fulfillment of basic needs) put together and 40% due to what we choose to think and do. Read the full article and some responses (including mine) here. So, are you at least 40% happy? ;-)

my IQ is higher than my happiness quotient. Both are in the negative, but my IQ is less negative.

See....I told you....you're the most intellectual clown I know. :-)

Yes...it does get pretty difficult when your IQ is more than your HQ...er..well...I can at least imagine that....as in my case I suspect it must be the other way around. ;-)

you mean of all the intellectual clowns you know, I have the least negative IQ?

Nimmy said...

Aaah....how many different interpretations we might arrive at! :-)

Nah. The 'clown' is just a reference to what you claim to be on your blog (The clown behind the mask). So, maybe the mask here is "Intelligence"? But, hell, I think agree with you. Of all the intellectual clowns I know, you have the best IQ. ;-)
