134: The Secret To Happiness




Coaching for Leaders: Better Leadership Through Improved Communications, Human Relations, and Personal Productivity show

Summary: While many things contribute to happiness, one key attitude shift in how we talk and think about our activities will help us be much happier. “Happiness isn’t doing what you like, it’s liking what you do.” -Quote on my dads desk Vance Caesar was one of my professors in graduate school. He wrote The High Achiever’s Guide To Happiness* Vance said, “Create more gets tos than got tos Do you have more “get to’s” than “got tos?” Do you have to give someone feedback today, or do you get to? Do you have to give a presentation today, or do you get to? Do you have to resolve a conflict today, or do you get to? Do you have to go to work today, or do you get to? The secret to happiness is having more “gets tos” than “got tos” What will you do this week to turn a “got to” into a “get to?” Feedback On this topic: http://coachingforleaders.com/134 General comments, questions, or feedback http://coachingforleaders.com/feedback (949) 38-LEARN Thank you to Doreen Hill, Marie Lewallen, Angelica Herrera, Latha Hari, Marie Mayhew, Marcus Little, Michael Dodds, Mary Helms, Zachery Englander, Will Reeves, Jason Masalcas, Tara Thom, Antonio Augusto Guimaraes Lima, Jeff Wolfe, and John Brady for subscribing to my weekly update this past week.
