One Friday morning while travelling by train in the rush hour on my way to deliver a job search workshop in south London, a little boy, accompanied by his mother, arrived in my carriage. Instructed to take the only available seat at the aisle he exclaimed, “I wanted to sit at the window!”

According to the ‘Happiness Habits Experiment Report’ by Lucy McCarraher and Annabel Shaw the most effective happiness habits are:
Spreading happiness – making the effort to be kind
Three good things –recording three good things per day
Simply smile
Once embedded these happiness habits have a powerful effect and can raise happiness levels. When applied to the workplace they can dramatically improve well being and team working.
