From the authors of the million-copy bestseller comes an exploration of job, career, and achieving happiness at work. After nearly two years on the New York Times bestseller list and over a million hardcover copies sold, this book continues to resonate with readers. It features the Dalai Lama, who, alongside psychiatrist Howard Cutler, delves into what makes life meaningful, following their groundbreaking previous work. Cutler has maintained his dialogue with the Dalai Lama, addressing key questions about finding happiness in our work environments, whether at home or in an office. Work is central to our lives, providing for our basic needs and family care. Dr. Cutler presents significant studies and engages the Dalai Lama on the nature of work, emphasizing the connection between productivity and happiness. The discussion centers on three levels of focus: Survival (salary and stability), Career (advancement), and Calling (work as purpose). Key questions arise about the interplay between personal values and employer expectations, self-awareness, sources of dissatisfaction, and coping strategies for workplace challenges. Cutler clarifies the Dalai Lama's insights, offering practical applications of Buddhist wisdom that serve as a source of strength and peace for anyone in the workforce.
