Happiness in Job and Business

[Guest guest]

Some general points to consider for all:

 

do you make your business partners, customers, suppliers happy

is happiness and satisfaction of your customers the only goal of your

activity, of the company you are working for

does your product or service meet a natural and true need of mankind

does the product or service you provide make your customers free,

healthy and safe

does the product or service you provide make your customers more free

to accomplish his spiritual l purpose of life and support achieving

this goal

are all customers free to select or void your products or services

 

if you say NO or your answer is questionable to any of above points,

then you may have to consider some of the following suggestions and

apply them in your situation.

 

First some common mistakes made and recommendations on how to improve

the situation. Be truthful and honest toward yourself and find out

whether some some of them apply to you.

 

Do you use your job or business just to gain money ? Any job can be

fun and supply you with happiness. Change your job. Find out what

kind of work you really like. Each individual has a highly creative

potential given by God. We all are children of God made to his image.

Find out what potential you have got and employ it for the benefit

and welfare of all. Forget money in your life. Look at all the rich

people in history, most of them were lonesome and died of some

serious illness. This should show you that they did something wrong.

Learn from it and improve it in your own life. Your job of any kind

should leave you plenty of opportunities for social interaction with

your customers and any other person around you. From the absolute,

spiritual point of view there can be no separation between private

life and business life. It is all one. You are spiritually learning

while working. Realize your lessons and apply all you can learn day

after day.

 

Do you first think of the benefits for yourself or your own business

before thinking of the well-being of others ? Then all others will

also first think of their own benefits and well-being and no one will

take care of you. Start to think of the well being of all others and

all others will start to think of your well being after a while. They

all behave like your mirror !! if you think " I don't care about him

as long as I am doing fine " then he will think exactly the same way.

How terrible this idea can get - but how loving it could sound and be

if you think " I want them all to be happy and enjoy life day after

day " .

 

Is making profits important to you ? Making profits all the time is

increasing the prices but never making anyone happy. Making profit

means you want to get more than you gave. This is pure egoism. Be

happy with a honest and equal share from the income. Others have a

God given right to live well as much as you.
