Let's get down to it. Everyone wants to be happy. Seriously.
Happiness may mean different things to different people, and those different people may go about it differently, but in the end we all want it. We all want to feel good.
Despite this...despite us all working so hard to find it, the reality is that many, many of us aren't happy. Or we're not as happy as we could be be...as often as we could be. Somehow happiness, a simple concept we learned as children, has become an elusive and frustrating aspiration. And, far too often and without even knowing it, the thing standing smack dab in its way is us.
Tough Truths is a little book that packs a happiness punch, tackling the topic by giving the straight scoop on how we tend to contribute to it...and get in its way. It also provides specific tips, examples, and even one simple mathematical ratio to help you get to greater happiness.
Because, seriously, who doesn't want that?
