Some Monday morning inspiration!
Science has founded that happiness levels aren’t the entire equation when it comes to living a good and happy life.
They have found that having meaning in your life – something more to live for, is really the key.
The author uses the example of Viktor Frankl, a holocaust survivor, author and influential thinker about the meaning of life.

Happy Monday Zeople!
Came across this Quora post sometime last week and wanted to share it with you all.
The question: What is the most important life lesson that you have learned up to this point?
Some really, really great lessons in there.
I found myself thinking about the comic with the camel for quite some time. Our society sometimes really does just look for ways to point out things others are doing “wrong”, when any way could be the wrong way depending on how you look at it.
So, lesson: be positive. Encourage others!

Any Calvin & Hobbes fans out there?
I’d bet more than a few!
How about some Zinspiration from creator Bill Watterson:
“You’ll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you’re doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you’ll hear about them.
To invent your own life’s meaning is not easy, but it’s still allowed, and I think you’ll be happier for the trouble.”
