Ted Talk

Chip Conley: Measuring what makes life worthwhile

I listened to this as a podcast via iPod instead of watching it. Chip Conley has found a way to measure some intangible things, for one happiness, in our everyday lives, and in the corporate world. He talks about being happy with what we have instead of trying to constantly find things that make us happy. Mick Jagger still said it best I think, “You can't always get what you want, And if you try sometime you find, You get what you need”.

This book is on my 'Christmas' reading list: Stumbling upon Happiness, by Daniel Gilbert. He also has a TED talk (all the cool kids do, nowadays).
