“After enjoying a visit from ten Tibetan monks for a two month period, I decided to delve a little bit more into what made them such wonderful people (and house guests). Most of the tenets of Buddhism seem more like the basics of good behaviour.

This book covers more of the proper way to communicate with people at your workplace - and my my husband swears by it. I figure that anything that makes you a better person is worth the read. ”
“Work = Life = Happiness
This isn't as good as the first book. It is almost like trying to compare apple and orange. The Work and Happiness do not come together, if we follow the western definition of Work.

The author has spent a tremendous effort to rectify the concept of Work to the western, so he can relate "Work" to happiness. But it is for me becoming very superficial and for sake of doing this book. The conclusion should be "this is not a good topic for Dalai Lama to elaborate on, since he has totally different perception of Work from the western's definition. His work is his life, and the two are inseparable, that is how you make your work Happy-able.”
“Good advice on how to derive more happiness from the work we do and how to change attitudes about work in order to feel happier. On the downside - the book was written in collaboration with Dalai Lama, not by him. And there is a lot in it about Dalai Lama and Howard Cutler, which in many places felt like Cutler just used the big name to push his own book. In one place, Cutler even calls Dalai Lama his friend, which I just don't buy. ”
