An interesting if not quite productive day. I sat down with the best of intentions to get a bit of work done but ever since have been distracted and whizzing all over the internet but I am pleased I did. I just happened across a very interesting blog by a Dane who lives in the uk and is a speaker, educator and Author in ‘Happiness At Work’ but prefers to go by the title Chief Happiness Officer. His book Happy Hour From 9-5 is available via his website and no doubt an interesting read and apparently can be read online for free. I’ll take a look presently.

So what has this got to do with money? A happy worker is a more enthusiastic, more productive and, almost certainly , a more successful worker. There is a lot more to life than simply money and you probably spend a large part of your life at work so why not enjoy it? However, as a happy worker you will very likely achieve more success in your work and money as a result and very likely enjoy a far happier private life too as matter of course. It’s a win, win situation and who can resist one of those?

One thing that can create resentment and spoil the working environment is job titles. Alex argues that they are a waste of time and he makes a good case for it. Does a job title ever change anything? It may look good on a CV but hopefully there will be more important things than job titles on your CV for you to be judged by. It’s an over rated concept developed by people who want to sound important even if they are not. Read more about one example of a reader of Alex’s blog who took action to do away with pompous job titles here…Â Chief Happiness Officer and have a happy and productive day.
