Produktbeschreibung zu The Happiness Project

In this utterly beguiling narrative in the style of Julie and Julia, Gretchen Rubin - a young married mother of two and a successful lawyer-turned-author - chronicles a transformative year in her life when she searched for and found ways to become a happier person.

Soon after she turned 36, Gretchen Rubin realized that she was in danger of wasting her life - that she was among millions of people who lead seemingly indulgent lives but arent as happy as theyd like to be. So instead of continuing to wait for her problems to correct themselves, Rubin decided to make changes, and on January 1, the Happiness Project began. Each month for the following year, Rubin pursued a different set of resolutions: clean the closets, quit nagging, sing in the morning, write a novel, remember birthdays. To supplement her efforts, she read everything from classical philosophy to current scientific studies, from Aristotle to Oprah, formulating her own definitions of happiness and how to achieve it. She kept track of which strategies worked and which failed miserably, sharing her stories and collecting those of others through a daily blog.Bit by bit, she learned how to make herself happier. Weaving together philosophy, scientific research, and real-world strategies, The Happiness Project is the engaging, relatable account of what worked for Rubin - and, humorously, what didnt - as she sought to become a happier person. With practical advice, sharp insight, and charm, Rubins story will energize readers hoping to apply her tips as they shape their own paths to happiness.
