Über diesen Titel

 This is not just another happiness book. In Happiness by Design, happiness and behavior expert Paul Dolan combines the latest insights from economics and psychology to illustrate that in order to be happy we must behave happy Our happiness is experiences of both pleasure and purpose over time and it depends on what we actually pay attention to. Using what Dolan calls deciding, designing, and doing, we can overcome the biases that make us miserable and redesign our environments to make it easier to experience happiness, fulfilment, and even health. With uncanny wit and keen perception, Dolan reveals what we can do to find our unique optimal balance of pleasure and purpose, offering practical advice on how to organize our lives in happiness-promoting ways and fresh insights into how we feel, including why:

• Having kids reduces pleasure but gives us a massive dose of purpose
• Gaining weight won’t necessarily make us unhappier, but being too ambitious might
• A quiet neighborhood is more important than a big house

Vividly rendering intriguing research and lively anecdotal evidence, Happiness by Design offers an absorbing, thought-provoking, new paradigm for readers of Stumbling on Happiness and The How of Happiness. Persönliche Entwicklung Persönlicher Erfolg Seelische & Geistige Gesundheit

Kritikerstimmen

“Outstanding, cutting-edge, and profound. If you’re going to read one book on happiness, this is the one.”
—Nassim Nicholas Taleb, bestselling author of The Black Swan and Antifragile

“Happiness by Design is the best kind of psychology book: the ideas are fascinating, understanding them will make your life happier and more meaningful, and Dolan expresses them beautifully. Whether you’re a novice or a voracious consumer of happiness research, Happiness by Design hits all the right notes.”
—Adam Alter, bestselling author of Drunk Tank Pink

“Dolan gives a comprehensive overview of the science of happiness and useful tips to achieve it. In his quest to explain what makes us happy, Dolan touches on a powerful idea: happiness need not be pursued, simply rediscovered. In other words, sources of pleasure and purpose are all around us, if only one knows where to look.”
—Scientific American

I listened to this audiobook on my way back from an internship at the UN. Afterwords it took me another couple of years before my system had really processed the message, but eventually I quit my job in politics and started a new career in physiotherapy being now much happier or as Dolan might say: richer in experiences of pleasure and purpose over time.

Life Changing

Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten. Bitte versuche es in ein paar Minuten noch einmal.
I've read my share of happiness related books and this one is by far the most boring one I've encountered. It had absolutely nothing new for me, and even when I agreed with the ideas presented, I found the presentation so boring that it was very hard to pay any attention. On top of the content being uninteresting, the narration is awful.

Ultra boring

Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten. Bitte versuche es in ein paar Minuten noch einmal.
Very lackluster audio, both in recording quality as well as speaker.

The content of the book is also pretty boring and generic. There is almost no info to take away, no direct learnings. It is, like so many American pseudo science self help books, full of entirely anecdotal or biased info.

In the vibe of the book, the time spent listening to this felt neuter purposeful, nor enjoyable.

Truly unremarkable and trivial
