We can't always depend upon the systems/organizations around us for happiness.
Happiness is achieved by these two things...love and work. Love for people around us and fulfilling and satisfying work. Rules and incentives of systems around us can't always help us to achieve these two. In fact; no other than one thing can help us achieve these.... "practical wisdom or knowledge". Psychologists find that wise system changers are more happy people than them who merely follow the system even if it doesn't make sense.
