December is right around the corner. At the end of the year, I always look back at the things I\u2019ve done in the past 12 months, what I\u2019ve learned from it and what I take with me into the new year. One of the things that had a huge impact on me is that, according to Positive Psychology<\/a> founder Martin Seligman, worldwide there currently are over <\/span>3 billion people <\/b>who <\/span>don\u2019t feel happy<\/b>. In my opinion that\u2019s way too much! My New Year\u2019s resolution therefore: I\u2019m going to do something about this! Together with my colleagues, and if you want, with you too. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you also want to experience as much happiness as possible in 2017, and the lowest amount of stress? Then, my ideal New Year\u2019s gift for you next year is happiness! <\/span><\/p>\n

There are 3 billion people worldwide who don\u2019t feel happy <\/b><\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Now I hear you think: \u2018How can you give someone happiness?\u2019 I\u2019ve asked myself that question too. Here is the answer! <\/span><\/p>\n

As you can frequently read and see on the Power2Improve <\/span>Facebook page<\/span><\/a>, I try my best to let my colleagues and our customers experience happy moments on a regular basis. As a member of our Happy Makers Team, together with a group of other enthusiastic colleagues, I ensure the Happy High Performance atmosphere at work in a pro-active way. And we do this for a reason. <\/span>Happy high performance teaming <\/span><\/a>isn\u2019t only great fun, it is also very important. Did you know that happy employees experience more feelings of joy, motivation and inspiration \u00e1nd that happy teams are up to four times as successful as teams whose members aren\u2019t that happy? Therefore, it isn\u2019t only great for you and your colleagues when you feel good, but it\u2019s also marvellous news for your supervisor \u00e1nd your customers! <\/span><\/p>\n

You will discover a lot more positive results on this way of working in the infographic below. <\/span><\/p>\n

Allowing yourself and others to feel happy by giving or receiving small (and sometimes bigger) compliments<\/a> or reaching a milestone, may seem <\/span>obvious<\/span>. However, according to the hard facts that Martin Seligman<\/a> states, nothing could be further from the truth. As a Happy Maker, I feel the urge and need to make a change in this, as much as I can. For example by organizing a Gratitude dinner for our whole team, which will be taking place in a few weeks. While enjoying some nice food and drinks, my colleagues and I will dwell upon our Strength Creators, the qualities that make us strong and successful, and the things that we are grateful for. Together, we will also search for ways to maintain this feeling. Now, \u00e1nd in the upcoming year. <\/span><\/p>\n

In order for us to help you feel the best and most happy feelings ever, we are currently developing a special Happier New Year Program. This will inter alia provide you with ways to use your unique set of Strength Creators. The qualities that make you up to four times as successful. We all have strong qualities, yet not everyone is sufficiently aware of what his or her strengths are and how to use them in the best way. That is why I would love to give you the opportunity to discover <\/span>your Strength Creators Top 5<\/span><\/a>, just like me and my colleagues already did. Take the test and you will soon find out what your strongest qualities are. Moreover, we will also tell you how you can become the best and most happy version of yourself, based on your strengths. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

How to really and truly give someone the gift of happiness? By making it as simple as it sounds. Together with a few other colleagues, our Happy Makers Team is currently developing a brand new course, which will provide you with real-life happiness.

To optimize your feelings of happiness and become a real Happy Maker yourself. You can do something about this right now.

Let\u2019s create and experience even more happiness in 2017, together. I sincerely wish you, and myself, the most sparkling Happy New Year ever! <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
