More about the book

Everyone seeks happiness and success, yet achieving both has become increasingly difficult. As demands in work and personal life rise, we often try to cope by multitasking and pushing ourselves harder. While this may yield short-term results, it ultimately harms our well-being, relationships, and even productivity.

This book challenges these notions, presenting evidence that happiness is key to productivity and thriving in both work and home life. Drawing on recent scientific research in areas such as resilience, willpower, and mindfulness, Seppälä offers practical strategies to integrate these findings into everyday life. A fulfilling, successful, and anxiety-free existence is attainable, and this book provides the guidance needed to achieve it. Experts highlight the book's insights, emphasizing that reconfiguring our approach to happiness can transform our lives and careers. With research-backed strategies, it encourages us to thrive professionally while remaining authentic and enjoying the journey. Ultimately, it offers a science-based pathway to sustainable success that fosters fulfillment and well-being.
