Why We Must Focus on Happiness, Now!
“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” Nelson Mandela
We are thrilled that you are here and that you want to bé a part of this movement for positive change.
It is clear that the world we live in is not the world any of us want to pass down to our children. There are growing inequalities, pandemics, sectarianism, environmental destruction, unrest, and a lot of unhappiness. However, at the World Happiness Foundation we believe that it is possible for us all to be free, conscious and happy. To do this, we must work together. That is why our entire ecosystem is built as a polycentric, interconnected network of government leaders, policymakers, researchers, educators, business leaders, artists, activists, and changemakers. Collectively we can realize the future of happiness through innovation, learning, cooperation, and the achievement of more effective, equitable, and sustainable societies.
Underpinning everything we do is something we call, bé. bé represents what we consider to be the “life force energy” that acts as the guiding compass of The Foundation. By life force energy we mean vitality. We draw this concept from similar beliefs found in Eastern traditions, for example, Qi in Ancient Chinese Medicine, or Prana, in the Hindu yogic traditions. We believe that this vibrant “energy” is incredibly important to our existence as a Foundation because it acts as a through-line, holding all aspects of what we accomplish together under one lively spirit. It allows us to observe the changes we make over time and aligns us with our values.
The Foundation’s Underlying Philosophy
Values matter
When our actions are rooted in our values we become unstoppable forces for good. Those values must allow us to think big, dream bigger, and realize our potential, now. That is why as a Foundation we believe in the following values:
Discovery
We believe that curiosity leads to discovery and discovery leads to wisdom and innovation. Get curious about your inner and outer worlds, the micro and the macro. Learn from experience, and expand your comfort zone.
Connection
On your journey of discovery, it is essential to ground your experience in connection. “I am because you are.” The key here is to bridge your own lived experience with the experiences of others. The suffering and the joy, successes, and failures. Only when working together can we all live happier lives and create thriving communities.
Gratitude
Gratitude is a fundamental component of happiness. We must express gratitude for ourselves, our communities, and the planet. It is through this act of consistent thankfulness that we physically and emotionally experience well-being.
Compassion
Compassion is the ultimate act of kindness. It is an empathetic embrace of the “other” and a clear act of leadership. The root of transcendental change and growth is compassion, a value needed now, more than ever.
