TO LIVE THE LIFE YOU LOVE IS SUCCESS
TO LOVE THE LIFE YOU LIVE IS HAPPINESS
Your definition of happiness is precisely what makes you unhappy. Have you found happiness and inner peace to be elusive at times in your life? Have your attempts at seeking fulfillment only yielded short-term pleasure followed by feelings of meaninglessness, loneliness and anxiety?
In The Myth of Happiness, Dr. Silard challenges our cultural myths about both happiness and success. Here are some of the counterinuitive principles you will learn:
• Happiness is a seed that grows in the gardens of others.
• We spend our waking hours giving to the people whom we fear may abandon us if we neglect them rather than the people we love the most.
• Success is choosing how you want to live. Happiness is living with what you choose.
• A goal, if you are successful at achieving it, passes from in front of you to behind you. Your life purpose always remains in front of you.
The Myth of Happiness is a clarion call for anyone wishing to invite more happiness and social connection into their lives.
