The happiness project, or, Why I spent a year trying to sing in the morning, clean my closets, fight right, read Aristotle and generally have more fun / Gretchen Rubin.
Gretchen had a good marriage, two healthy daughters, and work she loved--but one day, stuck on a city bus, she realized that time was flashing by, and she wasn't thinking enough about the things that really mattered. "I should have a happiness project," she decided. She spent the next year test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific studies, and lessons from popular culture about how to be happier. Each month, she pursued a different set of resolutions: go to sleep earlier, quit nagging, forget about results, or take time to be silly. Bit by bit, she began to appreciate and amplify the happiness that already existed in her life. Written with humour and insight, Gretchen's story will inspire you to start your own happiness project.
