Few more keys to happiness ...

In continuation with what Myshkin posted coupla months ago, few more keys to success

1. Bypass the Maslow's heirarchy of needs to reach highest level

The hierarchy of needs are physiological, safety, belonging, esteem, self actualization in order from lower to higher. Powered by this information why not reach the highest level ... i.e. self actualization!

2. Work on proxies. There are some proxies whch lead to happiness. For e.g.
Good work --> Interest --> Love for work --> Job satisfaction --> Happiness

So just reach the last stage "Job Satisfaction", which can serve as a proxy for leading to happiness. So instead of going for good work, just condition the mind to give output of job satisfaction, and you'll be happy! Same may be applied to different fields probably

However all this irelevant gyaan type sounding crap is better said than done !

B-school blues...

Just a coupla thoughts on what us MBA folks generally say... and don't say :)

Say (rather non-chalantly): I average about 4-5 hours of sleep a day
Don't say: I sleep for 3 hrs in class

Say: I stay up till 5 in the morning doing assignments...
Don't say: I start working on my assignments around midnight

Say: We have to make regular presentations which require a lot of preparation...
Don't say: We believe in recycling... Who said we can't use stuff from one presentation in the other.. And of course, Google rocks!

Say: The days are always packed...
Don't say: They're also packed with AOE, GTA, Fifa, Quake III...

Say: The parties here ROCK!!
Don't say: If you don't drink, smoke or 'get high on dancing', you'd be bored to death.

More inputs & experiences invited PNR, Sirji, Yogi, ATM, anya junta...
