Publisher's Synopsis
This amazing work explains that unhappiness is so persistent because it is hardwired into our brains. Dr. Baker argues that stress and fear were vital in primitive times, but are destructive for our lives today. We cannot feel fear and appreciation simultaneously and can only be happy by adopting practical steps for appreciating and loving life.
- Baker holds the view that we can't talk our way out of problems - we have to do something.
- In his work Baker realized that there are key things that all happy people have in common and from there developed 6 unique happiness tools that he explains can be incorporated into our daily lives:
appreciating what we have
making choices
building personal power
leading with strengths
telling healthy stories about our lives
living a balanced life
- Don't just sit there, learn the these simple, yet amazing tools and make them a habit.
