Joycietywww.joyciety.comJoyciety is a book about the formation of a more cheerful society and happier personality. Joyciety is a vision of what we will become and how we will transform the world, about who will be the winners and who will be the ... losers. In this book I examine changes in people’s perceptions and values, and cite examples about which changes society, states and business should be ready for. In my observations of society and people, I have noticed that we have once again – among other things – begun to value emotions in place of things, to seek truly unconditional love and freedom; that we once again wish to communicate with people, not organisations; that we are focusing greater attention on our own satisfaction than the opinions of others. At the same time, these developments mean considerable changes to employers, the receipt of taxes, bureaucratic agencies and all other systems. The developed world is struggling in the clutches of stress, spending money on things, experiencing joy only at the moment when an object is acquired. Youth is followed by a midlife crisis, which in turn amplifies the need to buy things. Middle-age is followed by old-age, where things are replaced by waiting for the younger generation to come and visit. Joyciety talks about how to replace the stress and routine with a cheerful and happy everyday life, regardless of age and wealth. Joyciety talks about what we can transform our society and states into, if we know what we want. Joyciety’s thoughts conjure ideas within the reader, about how to actually improve the world without struggle, war and conflict.About the Author:Peeter Wõrk is a man, who graduated cum laude from the Tallinn University of Technology, with a degree in systems engineering.
