If you’re happy and you know it… you also know how to count your blessings. Noticing what you have – and learning to appreciate it – is the first step towards being happy, says the Italian ambassador to Bulgaria. And luckily, you don’t HAVE to have the Italian food or clothes to be happy. Though it certainly won’t hurt. Career diplomat with a lifelong commitment to training and innovation, he is currently the Ambassador of Italy in Sofia. During his 30-year long career he has served in Dar es Salaam, Geneva, New York and Brussels and he has always been proactive in using new technologies for diplomatic practice. He has published several books about diplomacy with a special focus on soft skills, creativity and self-improvement. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
