Joy and Sadness

Thursday, December 24, 2015, 10am to 11:30 in the Meeting Room (behind the fireplace)

Christmas has been called both the happiest and saddest time of the year. We will review these two emotions in a couple of TED Talks. This talk by Shawn Achor dismisses the ideal that joy comes from success. Instead, he says success come from joy. This talk by Brene Brown is about her discovery that sadness is essential for joy. (This revelation will sound familiar to you if you saw this year's hit movie Inside Out). 

The meeting is on the morning of Christmas Eve, but please come if you can. The group size should be smaller than usual, which is perfect for a focus group to suggest topics for next year.
