Product Description:
Many people believe they can only be happy when their problems are solved, relationships improve, and goals are achieved. In this simple guide, Dr. Richard Carlson shows readers how to be happy right now — no matter the situation. His plan, based on the principles of Thought (thoughts are voluntary, not involuntary);Mood (thinking is a voluntary that varies function varies from moment to moment and these variances are called moods); Separate Realities (everyone thinks in a unique way and lives in separate psychological realities); Feelings (feelings and emotions serve as a barometer for when one is “off-track” and headed for unhappiness); and the Present Moment (the only time when genuine contentment, satisfaction, and happiness). This timeless book guides readers through life's challenges and restores the joy of living along the way.

After about 30 pages I caught on to the fact that there's no need to actually read this book; you can just flip through and read the section headlines. You get the same effect.

I guess it's supposed to really drive the ideas home, but... just make it a pamphlet already. It's not a book.

I this book during my 45 minute train ride into work, this morning. It is really, really basic stuff. The five points contained in the book's 141 pages could have been accurately and completely reduced to a five page essay, MAX.
The book's central premise is that our thoughts control our moods. If we reject our negative thoughts and nurture our positive thoughts, we will be happier people. (Okay, maybe the five points contained in the book's 141 pages could have been accurately and completely ... Read More

Great book for those of us who occasionally have to pull our head out! I recommend all of Richard Carlson's books, wish he was still here to write a few more! Kirk
