How Will You Measure Your Life

This week, Clayton M. Christensen address “How Will You Measure Your Life?” has been my best reading article and has thought me so many important lessons. The three questions asked by Christensen.  First, how can I be sure that I’ll be happy in my career? Second, how can I be sure that my relationships with my spouse and my family become an enduring source of happiness? Third, how can I be sure I’ll stay out of jail? Should be questions answered by many if we are to succeed in life.

To answer the last question he told the students, two of my 32 people in Rhodes Scholar class spent time in jail. To stay out of jail is to be honest and sincere with our fellow men. How then can we stay in our career and be happy? “Frederick Herzberg, who asserts that the powerful motivator in our lives isn’t money; it’s the opportunity to learn, grow in responsibilities, contribute to others, and be recognized for achievements” means we need not to work only for money but to have the opportunity to learn, grow in responsibilities, contributes to others and be recognizing for achievement. Let’s remember the importance of humility.
