About this listen
A leading expert on health psychology, well-being, and resilience argues that happiness is the key to fast tracking our professional and personal success.
Everyone wants to be happy and successful. And yet the pursuit of both has never been more elusive. As work and personal demands rise, we try to keep up by juggling everything better, moving faster, and doing more. While we might succeed in the short term, it comes at a cost to our well-being, our relationships, and, paradoxically, our productivity.
In The Happiness Track, Emma Seppala, the science director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education at Stanford University, explains that our inability to achieve sustainable fulfillment is tied to common but outdated notions about success. We are taught that getting ahead means doing everything that's thrown at us (and then some) with razor-sharp focus and iron discipline; that success depends on our drive and talents; and that achievement cannot happen without stress.
The Happiness Track demolishes these counterproductive theories. Drawing on the latest findings from the fields of cognitive psychology and neuroscience - research on happiness, resilience, willpower, compassion, positive stress, creativity, and mindfulness - Seppala shows that finding happiness and fulfillment may, in fact, be the most productive thing we can do to thrive professionally. Filled with practical advice on how to apply these scientific findings to our daily lives, The Happiness Track is a life-changing guide to fast tracking our success and creating the anxiety-free lives we want.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Current child-rearing techniques seek to develop children who are confident, self-assured, and unafraid to speak their minds-lions instead of lambs. Although largely positive, this shift has brought with it some very serious problems in our children's behavior. Without going back to an authoritarian model, Joe Newman has developed new ways of helping children develop the ability to self-regulate without undermining their confidence, and individuality.

Awareness awakens you to the truth that you possess everything you need right now to be happy and fulfilled. Happiness is your natural state. You don't need to do anything to acquire it; you only need to drop something. This audiobook shows you what that is. There is not a single person who ever gave time to being aware who’s quality of life didn't change. You see life differently because you are different. You respond to people and situations differently. You see things you have never seen before. Beautiful things. You're much more energetic, much more alive.

While the high of occasional wins can keep you going for a while, playing into the always-on, never enough hustle culture ultimately takes a serious toll.

Our most commonly held formula for success is broken. Conventional wisdom holds that once we succeed, we’ll be happy; that once we get that great job, win that next promotion, lose those five pounds, happiness will follow. But the science reveals this formula to be backward: Happiness fuels success, not the other way around.

Story
Each generation of therapists can boast of only a few writers like Deborah Luepnitz, whose sympathy and wit shine in her fine, luminous prose. In Schopenhauer's Porcupines, she recounts five true stories from her practice, stories of patients who range from the super-rich to the destitute, who grapple with panic attacks, psychosomatic illness, marital despair, and sexual recklessness. Intimate, original, and triumphantly funny, Schopenhauer's Porcupines goes further than any other book in illuminating "how talking helps".

Real estate is a powerful way to build wealth and achieve financial freedom, but the investment options can be overwhelming. Should you flip houses or buy rental properties? Should you buy locally or invest out-of-state? In the wide world of real estate, it can be difficult to identify which strategy best supports your individual vision. There is no one-size-fits-all portfolio, and ongoing uncertainty can result in analysis paralysis, investing burnout, or losing sight of your values altogether.

Good, but not quiet Danishly
- By G. Baker on 04-03-20
By: Helen Russell
Loved it a lot. Used to be a person who would dismiss many such books earlier. The author of this book happens to have been a student and professor at my college, so I couldn't dismiss it by thinking --- oh easy to say, she doesn't know what it takes to aim high to achieve greatly and be a part of such overachieving networks it gives you anxiety and depression all the time.
Very well researched and data backed. And I could connect the dots of what she said, and what a 5 year practitioner of Vipassana had said to me (calming body through breath, because even anger can be felt in the body first before the mind).
Highly recommend to feel better about oneself and this book can persuade you scientifically to start a 15min daily breathing practice.
And if you've begun to lose the strength to live anymore, it may give you back some strength as it did for me, and some answers too
Must read -- quick and persuasive

Where does The Happiness Track rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Near the top for this category.Who was your favorite character and why?
Examples range from CEO's, Nobel prize winners, congressman, and humanitarians. Stories involving military veterans are particularly engrossing.What does Nan McNamara bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She has an authoritative voice, that adds concreteness to the scientific nature of the text, but also fits naturally with the lighter and more entertaining parts.What did you learn from The Happiness Track that you would use in your daily life?
Where to start, each chapter has practical tips and suggestions for living a more happy and successful life. Overall, the idea that success comes from happiness and not the other way around was profound. Also, that sacrificing short term happiness for perceived long-term success, is an endless unfulfilling cycle. This book gives you a way out of that cycle to enjoy what you have now.Any additional comments?
This book is for anyone who consistently says there aren't enough hours in the day, anyone who is pursuing or in high-stress jobs or industries, consulting, investment banking, military etc. Honestly, everyone who reads this is likely to benefit and discover a happier and more successful way of life, and everyone should!Thought Provoking, Scientific and Relevant!
