The 7 Core Skills of Everyday Happiness: Scientifically Proven Skills for a Happier, More Meaningful Life - Paperback

by Scott Wilhite (Author)

Yes, Virginia, happiness is a skill (or more accurately a set of skills), and yes, you can absolutely get better at them.

Master these skills and you will be better able to manage stress and anxiety. You'll actively choose to focus on building positive relationships. You'll sharpen your ability to be mindful and fully present. You'll recognize how incredibly often you are the recipient of deliberate kindness and you will experience intense swellings of gratitude. You'll strive for ways in which you can live with more significance. Overall, you will become more alive, awake, and aware. This book will help you turn these skills into habits, and the habits into a positive healthy lifestyle.

What's most amazing is this is all backed by science.

Top-tier universities have been leading the charge with breakthrough research in the emerging area of positive psychology, a new branch within the long established field of psychology.

What if the things holding you back from greater happiness and success were so simple you could make just a few small tweaks and immediately see positive change in your life? And what if they were so deceptively simple, you've gone your whole life unaware of them?

You've been programmed and conditioned repeatedly by negative forces. Are you ready to be more deliberate about your mental conditioning?

You will best achieve this through mental focus and storytelling. This is where author Scott Wilhite shines. As a professional storyteller (he's an award-winning commercial filmmaker), he wraps the ideas and concepts around highly memorable stories that serve as mental triggers so you can easily implement them in your life. You probably don't realize how often you are telling yourself stories-stories that are often working against you. The fact is, you are more creative than you think. Learn techniques for rewriting those stories and you will begin to live more intentionally and more abundantly.
