High achievers are great at chasing success, but often struggle to enjoy it. Harvard professor, bestselling author, and Atlantic columnist Arthur Brooks has spent decades studying what creates happiness, what undermines it, and how to build more of it into our lives. In his new book The Happiness Files, he shares science-based insights from his How to Build a Life column and his Harvard course “Leadership and Happiness.” Arthur reveals why achievement alone can leave you feeling empty, the “arrival fallacy” that traps strivers, and the three ingredients for lasting fulfillment—helping you shift from chasing happiness to building it.
