People can be happy for many reasons. Personal accomplishments, family moments and accomplishment of any clique, group a person belongs to. Getting a promotion, ending up a project,being a hero in the office or in the neighborhood are great achievements. they stick by the true meaning of achievement  which is one should show and use effort in earning it.
How about the achievements one make as a man or a woman, that would be the ultimate goal of being born to the human world. why we have the less value for those, it is because they are given? or nobody give a damn about them.
In a world where old get revalued and implemented, is not this the time for giving the true value for those achievements as well.

Work is the bread for our survival. But often, we struggle to accept the fact yet most of the time in denial. Effects of unemployment should not be never tested unless a back up is there.
Handling the work, when we are told of to be trendsetters and problem solvers etc, is an erring experience when told environment is not given.
Not every one is a Steve Jobs, nor they will be. Designer, creator should prevail the "boss" in you. it is the driving and success factor for every ones life.
Handling your life and work is a must yet no definite methodologies are derived at. but we do it, most of the time at the expense of one, normally the life and family as they do love you for real.

Your family is the one normally gives up the time, opportunity for you. Should n't we reward them back more often ?
