On the back cover she writes of an epiphany that she has one afternoon. "The days are long, but the years are short. Time is passing, and I'm not focusing enough on the things that really matter." In that moment, she decided to dedicate a year to her happiness project.
Gretchen does such a great job sharing her research, experiences and lessons learned on happiness. Many of the quotes are so good that I had to highlight them. Her writing is so conversational and comfortable that I felt like we were talking over coffee. So what do you think? Are you up for the the happiness challenge?
I haven't read the book yet, but there's a terrific companion blog. Check out:
