It has been said that you can't give away what you don't have
It has been said that you can't give away what you don't have. As busy and committed leaders, mentors and supporters, taking good care of others requires that we first take care of ourselves.

What is Well-Being? What would the best possible future look like to you? The conventional answer is “Good health” and “Wealth”

What is Well-Being? Wellbeing is all the things that are important to how we think about and experience our lives. How did you do yesterday? How would you rate your life overall? Inspired by the work of Kahneman and colleagues, the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index adapted these methods to a large-scale survey environment by framing a series of experience and emotion questions within the context of the past 24 hours. For example, the respondent is asked a series of questions that relate to experiences of positive and negative emotions, including feelings of enjoyment, happiness, stress, and anger. Respondents are also asked whether they felt well-rested the previous day, whether they were treated with respect, smiled or laughed a lot, had a lot of energy, worried about money, and learned or did something interesting, for example. They are also asked about time use, such as the amount of time spent socially or commuting to work. In the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index, the life evaluation aspect of well-being uses the Cantril “selfanchoring striving scale,” which is a measure first developed in 1965 by Hadley Cantril and his colleagues at Princeton University.5 This question asks individuals to rate their lives on a ladder scale with steps numbered from 0 to 10, where “0” represents the worst possible life and “10” represents the best possible life. In addition, the “evaluative” dimensions of well-being are also captured through individual assessments of specific life domains such as one’s standard of living, community, job, relationships, and personal health.

How to Measure Well-Being?
subjective or psychological measures of well- being that seek to measure how people feel about their lives. evaluating of the remembering self and the experiencing self.

Definition of Overall Life Evaluation
Daily Affect (positive and negative experiences and emotions) Basic Access (including access to food, shelter, and healthcare) Safety (access to a good place to live, with low fear of crime) Physical Health (including disease burden and short-term illnesses) Economics (perception of standard of living) Work (satisfaction and a quality workplace)

Daily experiences: “How did you do yesterday?”
How well-rested did you feel? Were you treated with respect? Did you experience smiling or laughter? Did you learn something of interest? How much enjoyment did you experience? Were you in physical pain? How much worry did you have? Were you sad? Did you experience stress? How much anger did you have? “I would like to have more days like yesterday” The Emotional Health Index is primarily a composite of the daily experiences of residents of each state. It includes one item that asks about prior history of diagnosed depression. With the remaining items, respondents are asked to think about yesterday, from the morning until the end of the day, and consider whom they were with, what they did, and how they felt. The index is based on responses to the following 10 items:

“Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one principle: some things are within our control and some things are not. It is only after you have accepted this fundamental rule and learned to distinguish between what you can and cannot control, that inner tranquility and outer effectiveness become possible.” Epictetus ( AD)
