Not only did I find Achor to be a fantastic speaker (he was funny and forward and, even though he spoke fast, he was articulate and apparently sincere in his delivery) but his talk was also highly motivational and rewarding to watch. With all of the change occurring in my life right now, I'm finding myself becoming overrun with my work. Perhaps I need to center myself and focus more on happiness in my work to succeed in getting things done. No time like today to make the changes you need to make tomorrow fantastic!
I am an astrobiologist, sci-fi geek, and professor of everything groovy. I write about science, culture, math, history, space, and science fiction. Perhaps like you, I'm seeking a greater understanding of the nature of life and asking myself why all of this really matters. Come with me, and we'll ask some questions together.

The Profoundness of Being Happy
Here is a fantastic TED talk from Shawn Achor that I watched this morning. The talk considers the potential of happiness in finding success and the field of positive psychology. Give it a watch!
