I have read article after article that we need to concentrate on specific qualities in our life to reach happiness. I will say time and time again. If we can just appreciate the small qualities of life, the rest will follow. Be a constant learner of the greats. People like: Zig Ziglar, Og mandino, and Charlie "Tremendous" Jones.

As a writer, I also prefer not to focus on success, goal setting or making more money. Instead, I concentrate more on topics about becoming more inwardly happy. With inner happiness, it is then possible to create healthier relationships. Thanks for sharing! Great article! Evelyn I sure like what you are saying in this article.

Like I say in the article, I don't think there's anything wrong with making money and becoming more productive. And, if we're really interested in finding fulfillment, I think it's important to give serious thought to why we pursue money and time. Nobody chases after money and time for their own sake, and many of us chase it because in some fashion we want to create or improve relationships in our lives. Because of this, I think relationships are something that could stand to receive more emphasis in personal development writing. I agree with you that we only get as much out of interactions as we put into them. If we give our full attention to the interaction -- both in terms of listening and in terms of noticing what's going on in our own bodies -- we'll get much more fulfillment out of it than if we're distracted or focused on what we can get out of the other person. That's the kind of attention I think we should bring to our relating with people. I encourage you to try the exercise I describe, which is similar by the way to something Eckhart Tolle talks about in The Power Of Now (feeling your "inner body" while you're looking at an object or talking to someone). See if that changes how you experience relating with people. I suspect that you'll find it's more than fluff. In gratitude, Chris Hi Matt — thanks for your comment.
