7 Traits of Happy Employees

Happy employees make things happen and most importantly they do these things at work:
1. See Work as an Extension to their life experience
Happy employees see work relationships as the awesome extension of their lives. They are generally happy in life, and they extend such happiness to the workplace in their daily cheerfulness
2. Celebrate rather than compare themselves to the accomplishments of others
Jealousy is a killer. At work we are all capable of doing more, so when we find other employees doing better than us, our first reaction is to be jealous. Rather than compare to those who have accomplished, happy employees celebrate other peoples' success and use it as a motivation for themselves to accomplish the same or more successes
3. Work in the Present
Instead of reminiscing about the past or fantaziaing about the future, happy employees work on step-by-step to work success. In addition to being present, they are also capable of not disturbed by future concerns
4. Look within for Solutions
Happy employees operate on a basis of 'change starts within'. Instead of blaming others and demanding that people serve them, happy employees look at how they can be the solution, not the problem
5. Don't let Salary Dictate their Working Lives
We know that salary is important, but happy employees don't make salary as a basis for their work happiness. Instead of saying 'I'll be happy when I get a raise', happy employees are happy NOW doing their job. Such happiness at work translates into higher work effectiveness and lead to higher pay
6. Embrace Change
Working life is a constant change and happy employees that not only they must be open to change, they must be at the forefront of all changes so that they will be swept by the currents of change
7. Have a Dream
Happy employees don't dream at work, but they live their dreams. They know that whatever dreams you have in life can be achieved by your work. So they are not afraid of hard work as they know this will lead to their dreams

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
