Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview:

#1 You can live with happiness and fulfillment, alone or in a relationship. The belief that your happiness depends on an external circumstance that you can’t control makes it harder to find love, and it also makes you vulnerable to unhappiness.

#2 After years of being with her husband, George, the man eventually became her husband, the couple decided that they couldn’t continue living together. But they couldn’t agree on what to do about their challenges. Juliana hoped to improve the relationship, while George was bored in his work as an accountant and exasperated by their New York City bills.

#3 According to the hedonic treadmill theory, everyone’s happiness seems to hover at a fairly stable set point throughout life. What this means is that your actions matter and can affect your well-being.

#4 While it is true that single people are often judged based on negative stereotypes, these stereotypes do not reflect reality. It is difficult to remember this when the world adorns women’s fingers with expensive diamonds like trophies earned.
