Common market health measures such as GDP and GNP have been used as a measure of successful policy. Some economists argue that although on average richer nations tend to be happier than poorer nations, beyond an average GDP/capita of about $15,000 a year, studies indicate the average income in a nation makes little difference to the average happiness of the people in the nation.[40][41] It has been argued that happiness measures could be used not as a replacement for more traditional measures, but as a supplement.[42]

Indeed it has been argued that happiness at work is the one of the driving forces behind positive outcomes at work, rather than just being a resultant product.[43]

All [[truth]]--[[material]], [[philosophic]], or [[spiritual]]--is both [[beautiful]] and [[good]]. All real beauty--[[material]] [[art]] or [[spiritual]] [[symmetry]]--is both true and good. All genuine goodness--whether [[personal]] [[morality]], social equity, or [[divine]] ministry--is equally true and beautiful. [[Health]], [[sanity]], and ''''''happiness'''''' are integrations of truth, beauty, and goodness as they are blended in [[human]] [[experience]]. Such levels of efficient living come about through the unification of [[energy]] [[system]]s, [[idea]] systems, and [[spirit]] systems.[http://www.urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper2.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper2.html&line=151#mfs]
