Over the last few days, I have had a series of intense discussions with Tuan Fazrul Ismail from Total Success Sdn Bhd. When I looked at his model, I realized that there are lots of commonalities between what he is doing and what I am doing, we just arrived at the same conclusions by using different intellectual pathways. With these new insights, pretty much everything falls into place: the Islamic framework for understanding happiness, the western framework for understanding happiness, the data that I have collected so far, why so many Muslims are unhappy and why certain programmes - like the 12-steps programmes pioneered by Alcohol Anonymous - fit so well. Insya Allah, I need a month to let these ideas simmer so that I can express myself in a straight forward, complete and simple way. To use an old expression, I now see the light.
