Publisher's Summary:
We expect that getting what we want, will finally make us happy, but what we find is that it mostly just leads to wanting more, or wanting something different. Our desires toss us to and fro until we tire of this, and begin to question the value of following our desires. Being Happy (Even When You Don't Get What You Want), will help you understand desire, and its purpose in your life. It will also help you discriminate between your heart's desires and the ego's, and to relate to the ego's desires in a way that reduces suffering, and increases joy. By pointing out the myths about desire that keep us tied to our ego's desires, and the suffering they cause, Being Happy (Even When You Don't Get What You Want), will help you be happy, regardless of your desires and whether you are attaining them. So it is also about spiritual freedom, or liberation, which comes from following the heart, our deepest desires, instead of the ego's desires. It is about becoming a lover of life, rather than a desirer.
A review from Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God: "Conversations with God says that happiness is not getting what you want, it is wanting what you get. Others have made the same observation, and in fact, this thought seems to be as old as time. Still, it is good to hear it again, to visit it once more, to connect with the wisdom yet one more time. And few audiobooks do as good a job, as quickly, of reconnecting us with that wisdom, than this one by Gina Lake. This audiobook had a lasting impact on me. I highly recommend it... It offers a simple, accessible, articulate, and interesting take on the very human experience of desire, and gives us the tools to make clear choices about how we want to live our lives. An excellent listen." This audiobook was formerly titled, Anatomy of Desire.

Gina Lake's books are fabulous!!
I am never disappointed by anything Gina Lake writes. I can be in the worst mood, sad, down, or even agitated, and a few minutes with one of her books, brings me back into focus, ground me and center me. Gina's books are my "go to" place whenever life feels "too much" for me.
How to Be Happy Even When You Don't Get What You Want has inspired me deeply and left a lasting impact. If I feel myself slipping or struggling with a specific issue, all I have to do is open this book and read a couple of pages. There is gold everywhere throughout this book, so I let it open where it may and always find the perfect message for me.
Thank you Gina! I just love your work!!
Many Blessings, Kathy
She is very good at relating the concepts about the ego and Essence
Gina Lake addresses her topic clearly. She is very good at relating the concepts about the ego and Essence. Her books are similar in that they work around a similar message, but I find that I can't get enough of her explanations.
