Produktbeschreibung

New York Times-Bestselling Author: "The message resonates in today's workaholic culture that rewards hard work and stress with ... more hard work and stress." - Deseret News In this book, the author of the #1 New York Timesbestseller Teaching Your Children Values and The Entitlement Trap, Richard Eyre, contends that the three things today's society desires most-control, ownership, and independence-are, paradoxically, what bring the most discouragement and unhappiness in our lives. Providing a mind-changing exploration of the inherent problems with our fixation on material possessions, control over our lives, and independence from others, Eyre responds with a unique and engaging counterpoint on how to switch to the joy-giving alternatives of serendipity, stewardship, and interdependence and thus live a more verdant and abundant life. The first half, The Happiness Paradox,explores today's challenges to happiness. The second half explores The Happiness Paradigm: How A New View Can Turn Your Life Right-Side Up-and walks us through a mental paradigm shift that can change our lives and our search for lasting joy.
