"How we define success is a source of happiness we control.

105 studies, 70k people globally: valuing extrinsic over intrinsic goals predicts lower well being.

Seeking fame, money, or beauty is a bottomless pit.
Pursuing growth, kindness, trust, and health is a path to flourishing".

Pokud se vám udělá #názor, je dobré si vést seznam podmínek, za nichž se tento názor může změnit, myslí si #AdamGrant. Není to těžké, je to i zábavné. Názory jsou jen dočasné závěry/hypotézy ovlivněné tím, co v danou chvíli víme, a co cítíme.
