Beyond funny and entertaining, he so clearly demonstrates why the “the happiness advantage, which is your brain in positive, performs significantly better than when in negative, neutral or stressed.” What is a significantly better? There are many benefits, but the big ones are:
- 31% better performance
- 37% better at sales
- 19% better doctor diagnosis
How do we get our brain in positive? Showing gratitude, meditation, acts of kindness, exercise and journaling about all this good stuff with discipline for at least 21 days. These rock solid recommendations have proven to help across studies conducted since 2000.
