Dear Fred,
Thank you for your feedback. I agree with you. The path to true happiness is to put others' happiness ahead of your own. I don't know if seriously depressed people can hear that. I often refer to my depression as the "selfish disease," because it makes everything seem like it's about me, when in truth nothing is about me.
I have three little notes on my monitor at work: "What is best for the organization?" "What is the right thing to do?" and, "It's not about me." Today I'll add one that says, "What's my motivation?"
Best wishes,
Mark
