In Honor of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

I caught this sad news today of an obituary for University of Chicago Professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, who devoted his life to studying the idea of happiness, which he put forth in his book Flow. Go read it. It’s a down-to-earth yet enlightening book filled with much truth about human motivation and contentment, no matter what career you happen to be in.
