One rainy afternoon, while riding a city bus, Gretchen Rubin asked  herself, “What do I want from life, anyway?” She answered, “I want to be  happy”—yet she spent no time thinking about her happiness. In a flash,  she decided to dedicate a year to a happiness project. The result? One  of the most thoughtful and engaging works on happiness to have emerged  from the recent explosion of interest in the subject.

The Happiness Project synthesizes the wisdom of the ages with current scientific research, as Rubin brings readers along on her year to greater happiness. https://gretchenrubin.com/books/the-happiness-project/about-the-book/
