Although individuals need not be well-rounded, teams should be.

Even if people just change two or three things that they are able to sustain over time, it makes quite a difference eventually.

When we get at least six hours of daily social time, it increases our wellbeing and minimizes stress and worry. The six hours includes time at work, at home, on the telephone, talking to friends, sending e-mail, and other communication.

The absence of high-quality friendships is bad for your health, spirits, productivity, and longevity.

People who have at least three or four very close friendships are healthier, have higher wellbeing, and are more engaged in their jobs. But the absence of any close friendships can lead to boredom, loneliness, and depression.

People have several times more potential for growth when they invest energy in developing their strengths instead of correcting their deficiencies.

Buying experience such as going out to dinner or taking a vacation increases our own wellbeing and the wellbeing of others. Experiences last while material purchases fade.
