maybe reading "the art of happiness at work" by The Dalai Lama
(Author), Howard C. Cutler will be able to help u a bit?
The Art of Happiness at Work is a modern-day Socratic dialogue in
which Cutler asks the Dalai Lama about the difficulties and rewards
we might encounter in the workplace. The authors explore issues
such as work and identity, making money, the Buddhist concept of
"right livelihood," and transforming dissatisfaction at work. The
discussion appears simple, if not obvious, at first, but upon
closer scrutiny, the Dalai Lama's profound wisdom and sensitivity
emerges. For the Dalai Lama, basic human values such as kindness,
tolerance, compassion, honesty, and forgiveness are the source of
human happiness. Throughout the book, he illustrates with clear
examples how bringing those qualities to bear on work-related
challenges can help us tolerate or overcome the most thorny
situations. Recognizing that not all problems can be solved, the
Dalai Lama provides very sound advice. The authors urge balance and
self-awareness and wisely state, "No matter how satisfying our work
is, it is a mistake to rely on work as our only source of
satisfaction." --Silvana Tropea
