Overview

What if everything you've been told about happiness is wrong? You've been promised that the right job, the perfect relationship, or enough money will finally make you happy. But the science tells a different story-and it's surprisingly hopeful. Drawing on decades of research in positive psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral science, The Happiness Blueprint reveals why achieving your goals won't make you as happy as you think, why circumstances account for only 10% of your wellbeing, and what actually works to create lasting joy. At the heart of this book is a powerful insight: roughly 40% of your happiness is directly under your control through daily practices and mental habits. James Crawford translates the academic research into a practical framework anyone can use-the THRIVE method: Train your mind through gratitude, optimism, and mindfulness Harness flow through absorbing, challenging activities Relationships-invest in the connections that matter most Invest in progress toward meaningful goals Values and meaning-connect to purposes larger than yourself Expect less to escape the adaptation and comparison traps Featuring real stories of transformation, a 21-day challenge to jumpstart your practice, and Quick Wins you can implement today, The Happiness Blueprint offers not just understanding but a clear path forward. This isn't positive thinking. It's positive science-and it works.
