The Science of Building a Happier Life
What makes some people genuinely happy despite tremendous challenges, while others remain miserable despite having everything society says we should want? This question drove Arthur Brooks to completely change careers at age fifty-five to study happiness science. His collaboration with Oprah Winfrey reveals a profound truth: happiness isn't something you're born with-it's something you build. The approach combines rigorous research with deeply human stories to create a roadmap anyone can follow. Most of us operate under two fundamental misconceptions: that complete happiness is achievable, and that our circumstances prevent us from attaining it. The liberating truth? Complete happiness is impossible-it's a direction, not a destination. This means no circumstance, positive or negative, determines our capacity to become happier. True happiness consists of three essential "macronutrients": enjoyment (which differs from mere pleasure), satisfaction (fulfillment from accomplishing goals), and purpose (the element that gives life meaning).
