You really get it. I love how you talked about happiness as being and work as doing. I had never thought of that, but it's true. Work and happiness are like apples and oranges, yet we talk about them like they are apples to apples all the time. Also, the Tim Ferriss stuff is intersting in this context. I think it's a little extreme. Not that extreme isn't intersting and thought-provoking. It is. But Tim's ideas beg the quesiton: What is it that we should be doing with our time, and why it is so separate form work that we should be working only four hours. Not that I have answers. But thank you for helping me to figure out some questions to ask. Penelope What a great post, Paula. You really get it. I love how you talked about happiness as being and work as doing.
