Well Being v Misery

Well Being v Misery

It's been said that each person has a choice to cultivate one of two things: either well-being or misery.

This primary choice is at the root of all the other decisions a person makes in a lifetime; and has a far-reaching affect on how he/she relates to others. To follow are some indicators of how this cultivated state plays out in specific areas of one's life.
