[MCKEE ON HAPPINESS]:
FEELING FULFILLED IN WHAT YOU DO AND ACCEPTED BY THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE. ATTAINING IT MAY BE ARDUOUS BUT IT IS ONE OF THE MOST WORTHWHILE THINGS YOU CAN PURSUE IN LIFE.
BEING KIND AND TRUE TO YOURSELF AND TO THE PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT.
FINDING WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPIEST AND PURSUING IT WITH EVERYTHING YOU HAVE, BUT ALSO FINDING JOY IN THE LITTLE THINGS. SPREADING AS MUCH LOVE, POSITIVITY AND KINDNESS AS YOU CAN. BE TOLERANT AND ACCEPTING OF ALL IDENTITIES AND CULTURES, WHETHER YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND THEM OR NOT.
