How many of you know of a country called Bhutan?
Bhutan, a quaint Kingdom in the eastern Himalayas, is unique in many ways. Besides the stunning scenery, their approach to life and their economic policy is a unique reminder, and a wake up call, for the world that things can indeed be done in a different way.
And to do things in a different way, you need to start thinking differently.

Gross National Happiness Vs Gross Domestic Product.
Most countries in the developed economy measure their progress as the Gross Domestic Product, which basically shows how much money has been made that year. It is supposed to be a measure of the health of the nation, but what about the health of the populace?
Bhutan, as a country is focused on the happiness of its people rather then inquire how much they made that year. And they went a step further and incorporated this fact into their constitution so that when an annual report of this country is published, it reflects the happiness of the people and not their financial gains.
