About this product

Product Information

A leading expert on health psychology, well-being, and resilience argues that happiness is the key to fast tracking our professional and personal success. Everyone wants to be happy and successful. And yet the pursuit of both has never been more elusive. As work and personal demands rise, we try to keep up by juggling everything better, moving faster, and doing more. While we might succeed in the short term, it comes at a cost to our well-being, relationships, and, paradoxically, our productivity. In The Happiness Track, Emma Seppala, the science director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education at Stanford University and director of the Yale College Emotional Intelligence Project, explains that our inability to achieve sustainable fulfillment is tied to common but outdated notions about success. We are taught that getting ahead means doing everything that's thrown at us (and then some) with razor-sharp focus and iron discipli≠ that success depends on our drive and talents; and that achievement cannot happen without stress. The Happiness Track demolishes these counter-productive theories. Drawing on the latest findings from the fields of cognitive psychology and neuroscience--research on happiness, resilience, willpower, compassion, positive stress, creativity, mindfulness--Seppala shows that finding happiness and fulfillment may, in fact, be the most productive thing we can do to thrive professionally. Filled with practical advice on how to apply these scientific findings to our daily lives, The Happiness Track is a life-changing guide to fast tracking our success and creating the anxiety-free life we want.

  • One cannot read one book and achieve happiness. Happiness is formed over time and pleasant life experiences.

    I am only suggesting that this is an easy read. I have personally struggled with depression most of my life but have learned a few lessons about happiness and how to achieve and maintain. One of the adopted part of my life was exercise, often vigorous sweaty exercise. After a timely workout with a 5 mile run I felt better and over time I sustained that happiness. A way of life that most of us can adopt even if it is a 30 minute brisk walk around the neighborhood. When I began my much needed exercise regimen it was in a snowy part of upstate New York. Undaunted daughter and I embarked on a life style that would stick for almost 5o yrs. Deep snow, undaunted, we did it. The other sustaining impression of happiness comes from reading and not just any book . I consulted a recommended list ...
