THE HOW OF HAPPINESS


The How of Happiness is a different kind of happiness book, one that offers a comprehensive guide to understanding what happiness is, and isn't, and what can be done to bring us all closer to the happy life we envision for ourselves.
The book is written after research with thousands of men and women and the author has pioneered a detailed yet easy-to-follow plan to increase happiness in our day-to-day lives-in the short term and over the long term. 
She uses more than a dozen uniquely formulated happiness-increasing strategies,  The How of Happiness offer a new and potentially life changing way to understand our innate potential for joy and happiness as well as our ability to sustain it in our lives. 
The book helps you to first quantify and then to understand what she describes as your "happiness set point,"
The author determines just 50 percent of happiness while a mere 10 percent can be attributed to differences in life circumstances or situations. This leaves a startling, and startlingly underdeveloped, 40 percent of our capacity for happiness within our power to change.

  1. Happiness-increasing strategies sometimes helps but it is not always easy to define the happiness set point since people often cannot distinguish the situations that make them happy.
