Features: This book is not only for managers but also beneficial for anyone, helping them achieve success while reducing stress and increasing satisfaction. Facing the pressures brought by highly developed productivity in recent decades, this book draws on thousands of years of human life wisdom to guide managers in handling challenges with composure. In modern society, most people are either career-oriented (high income, high position) but not very happy, as they suffer from stress, tension, and anxiety; or they feel relaxed and content but lack success. Success and happiness seem like two parallel lines, never intersecting, or they might intersect at one point but quickly diverge. The author, Parick, is a successful world-renowned entrepreneur and a leader in the field of management studies. He is also a businessman who feels happy, fulfilled, and content. For most managers, success and happiness are like the fish and the bear's paw—unattainable together. But for Parick, they are perfectly integrated. Parick possesses the cultivation of Eastern round wisdom, combined with Western management expertise and practical experience. For many years, he has deeply studied the relationship among management, business, and personal life. He believes that pressure and success do not have to coexist, while success and happiness can go hand in hand. The professional techniques managers use to enhance organizational functions can also be applied to self-management. By nurturing the body, mind, emotions, and nervous system, as well as consciousness, one can achieve a balanced life of success and happiness, which ultimately benefits the success and prosperity of the enterprise.
