Happiness boosts health AND job success

Mental well-being – happiness, in other words – leads to better health and more success at the workplace, according to researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Economics in Jena, Germany, who examined data from a British survey that covered a period of 15 years.

Respondents in the survey regularly reported their mental well- being, marital status, health, job success and income as well as levels of stress, depression or anxiety.

The Max Planck researchers, who analyzed the various factors’ impact on each other using a ‘panel vector auto-regressions model,’ found increases in well-being to be associated with subsequent improvements in health, job success and income.
