Gretchen
Rubin, author of The Happiness Project: Or, Why I
Spent a Year Trying to Sing in the Morning, Clean My
Closets, Fight Right, Read Aristotle, and Generally Have
More Fun, says she wasn’t an unhappy person when she
started her Happiness Project. Like a lot of people, she
just got to a point where she realized her life wasn’t
going to change unless she started changing it.
So she bought
just about every self-help book she could find on happiness,
and decided to try the different suggestions for an entire
year to see which ones brought improved happiness into her
life. And in this audio, you’ll hear all the many things she
tried during her journey, what worked, what didn’t, and
exactly what she recommends.

A shocking
statistic: One in five people are on anti-depressants –
and the “non-medicated” suggestions to try that could

Can clutter
really be the cause of your unhappiness? And the
“one-minute” rule that could help you instantly feel
better

gratitude your attitude, helping others, exercising more,
and living in the moment)?
The surprising 3-minute habit you can add to your
morning routine that Gretchen says will give your mood an
instant boost – that lasts all day long
Most of us
never spend enough time assessing our lives to figure out if
we’re happy, even though that’s probably one of the most
important things we could be doing for ourselves. Gretchen
says, when it comes to happiness, you have to be the one to
take control of the areas of your life you’re unhappy with
because no one else can. And in this interview, you’ll hear
how she did that with her Happiness Project and how you can
too – one suggestion at a time.
