What if everything you've been told about happiness is wrong? Well, maybe not all wrong, but missing some really important stuff. A few years ago, I was lying in bed two o'clock in the morning doing one of those soul searching things, right? I typed four words into Google how to be happy. I totally recognize that at this stage of my life. I should have known the answer to that question, but the truth is I didn't have a clue. But I really wanted to know, well, that Google search was about to flip my world upside down. I actually went a little nuts. I would eventually devour hundreds of science backed podcast episodes, cross reference a boatload of books, and dive into some serious research. I was having a blast and learning incredible stuff about living a happier life. And the biggest thing I learned was the extent of the agency that every one of us have over building our own happiness. That really blew me away. And as I'm sharing all of these discoveries with my kids, my friends, strangers, and bars, it didn't matter. The problem was I was forgetting this stuff almost as fast as I was learning it. So I did what any dad obsessed dad from Jersey would do. I put it in a spreadsheet. Well, that spreadsheet eventually became. In Amazon, bestseller and Self-Help your Happier Life Toolbox with 42 science-backed tools for building your happier life.
