I recently watched Shaun Achor talking about ‘happiness’ on a PBS special and thought it was really great.  Shaun, a positive psychology expert, began with more than a decade at Harvard University researching the ‘science’ behind happiness and the human potential.  What I especially liked are the 5 simple habits or techniques that have actually been clinically proven to make you happier!  The advantage of happiness is that your stress levels go down, your health improves, your energy goes up, along with clarity, memory, intelligence, productivity, success, and you will even feel younger and live longer.
