The Art of the Good Lifeis a toolkit designed for practical living. Here you'll find fifty-two happiness hacks--from guilt-free shunning of technology to gleefully paying your parking tickets--that are certain to optimize your happiness. These tips may not guarantee you a good life, but they'll give you a better chance (and that's all any of us can ask for).

Descriere
The indispensable new work from the author of the international and Sunday Times bestseller The Art of Thinking Clearly Have you ever... * Spent too long on a powerpoint presentation? * Lost sight of what makes you happy? * Failed to reach a long-term goal? * Become infuriated by queuing, tax or parking tickets? * Broken a promise you knew you'd keep? Since the dawn of civilization, we've been asking ourselves what it means to live a good life: how should I live, what will truly make be happy, how much should I earn, how should I spend my time? In the absence of a single simple answer, what we need is a toolkit of mental models, a guide to practical living. In The Art of the Good Life, you'll find fifty-two intellectual shortcuts for wiser thinking and better decisions, at home and at work.
They may not guarantee you a good life, but they'll give you a better chance.
