ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In Shawn Achor's "The Happiness Advantage," the central theme is that happiness fuels success, rather than the other way around. The book explores seven principles of positive psychology to cultivate a happier mindset, and boost performance in work and life.

The book emphasizes the importance of small steps and mindset shifts, which allow us to reframe our experiences and behaviors to better achieve our goals. The work shows how we can make ourselves happier, more successful and more resilient through different techniques, as well as positively influence the people around us by doing so.
