Some tennis players are better than others. Some workers are better others. Happier workers have been found to be better workers! (the only exception in research has been negative people make better lawyers!). I will give you an example;
Happier people are;
More productive
More optimistic
More creative
More helpful and kind
More Loyal
Less absent
Less likely to leave
Less likely to die
Less likely to be depressed
Happier people have;
Better work relations
Better work quality
Better health
More resilience
More healthy habits
More positive mindset
More positive emotion
Happy people are more optimistic and less likely to spend time worrying and less likely to suffer from stress, which in turn makes them better workers, sleepers, friends and lovers. Working, sleeping, socializing and marriage are all happiness boosters. So happiness aids sleep which in turn sleep boosts happiness. An upward spiral of positive emotion and happiness.
