Publisher's Synopsis
The optimist fell from the top of the Empire State Building. As he passed the tenth floor, he was heard to say, "Well, so far, so good." Despite all of life's challenges, Happiness Guaranteed or Your Misery Back will show you how to develop an optimistic outlook, be successful and achieve great happiness. "Life is hard, after all it kills you" (Katherine Hepburn), but whatever your problem, be it financial, medical or psychological, whether it be depression, loneliness, failure, loss, envy or the feeling of being anxious, worried or overwhelmed, you will learn to manage your issue. You will learn to develop a positive upbeat vision of life and its possibilities. I was going to kill myself today by taking one thousand aspirin, but after taking the first two, I felt better. With the right plan, you can find new meaning and new paths to ignite your passions, find new goals and achieve your dreams. "Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time" (Confucius). "Being challenged is inevitable. Being defeated is optional" (Roger Crawford). You will learn to enjoy today by letting go of a disappointing past and looking forward to and planning for a brighter tomorrow. Happiness depends not on being able to control life, but on the ability to control how you view, accept and deal with life. By replacing negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results. You will learn to appreciate yourself as well as others and take notice of all you have to be grateful for. Through jokes, stories, lessons, instructions and memorable quotes, your mind will be inculcated with a new upbeat mindset. With every page you read, the world will become a happier, more hopeful place and your life will improve one baby step at a time as you reach your height of on going happiness. "Life is made up of the miserable and the horrible, and if you're only miserable, you should be very happy" (Woody Allen). As Abraham Lincoln said, "People are as happy as they make up their mind to be." Teach your autocorrect to change "I am so unhappy, I can't function" to "I am doing fine."
