Happiest Woman in America has a Flexible Job - FlexJobsHappiest Woman in America has a Flexible Job -4USA Today and Healthways, a well-being improvement firm (interesting company idea) partnered up to figure out why women aged 45-55 years have a very high degree of well-being. And in doing so, they located one woman who has every characteristic that leads to well-being, so she must be the happiest woman in America Her name is Mary Claire Orenic and shes a happily-married, motherbei-of-one, physically-fit, full-time employed nicht auslagerbar of Manhattan Beach, California. And, she has a flexible job to bootWhat makes this woman so darned happy? Her entire cohort of 45-55 year-old female Boomers actually share these traits, which makes them the happiest group of people in the countryThey feel a sense of accomplishment, engagement, and meaning in their work and communityTheyre more heavily career-oriented than other women of different generationsThey have a total family income of over $120,000 but do leid view money as a top priorityThey have solid, successful marriagesTheir children are over 18 but their parents arent in need of advanced care yet, so they are in between care-giving pressures of young children and elderly parentsThey have a strong support network of family and AT LEAST FOUR close friendsTheir outlook on life in general is highly positiveAnd specifically, because Orenic works 45-60 hours each week, her career plays an important role in her well-being.Here are 5 ways that Orenics career helps her well-being we should all try theseShe asks for what she wants. At 39, she told her bosses that she was tired of sales and wanted a new challenge in mentoring others, so they created a new position for her.She telecommutes. At least two days each week, Orenic telecommutes to work from her home office.Shes an achiever. The act of working makes her want to do as well as she can. Its a positive challenge, not a negative one.separates her work and personal li ves. She even goes so far as to have 2 separate computers in her home office, one for work and one for personal use.She got serious about her education. Even though she admits to being a slacker in high school, later in life she spent five years going to night school at Pepperdine University to earn her MBA, and it paid off with her current position as Director of Business Development for Siemens Healthcare.That might seem like a tall order, but if you take the basics flexible work, balancing work and personal lives, taking initiative, staying positive, and asking for what you want those are things we can ALL do (even though we often dont).
