Тема принятия и принадлежности — это, пожалуй, один из самых простых, но одновременно важных секретов человеческого счастья. Для каждого из нас важно чувствовать связь с окружающими, понимание и поддержку, будь то короткое «привет» от соседа по лестничной клетке, дружелюбная улыбка коллеги или голос друга в мессенджере.

Embracing Your True Self: Healing from Appearance-Based Hurt and Disrespect

Most of us, whether we admit it or not, want to feel like we matter. That sense of significance—the comforting certainty that our presence adds value—is just as important in the workplace as it is with friends and family. Just as vital is the need to feel a sense of belonging and connection: the reassurance that you aren’t walking these corridors of life alone, but side by side with others who notice you, respect you, and welcome your contributions. These core needs—significance and belonging—aren’t just nice bonuses; they’re the foundation of our sense of self and happiness, day after day.
