| Summary |
"As a seasoned author, Andy is going to extraordinary lengths to avoid Deja Moo the feeling that youve heard all this bull-shit before. He describes the new book thus: Im a big Led Zep fan but I dont want their entire back catalogue because some of the early stuff makes my ears bleed. Ditto positive psychology. Theres an awful lot of content out there so this is my Greatest Hits CD. The very best bits from the fields of wellbeing and happiness, with no filler. The book will contain the very latest from the science of positive psychology, including insights from his own research, plus an array of material begged, borrowed and rehashed from academia and self-help. Andys specialisms of attitudinal choice, emotional contagion, resilience, goal-setting and strengths will shine through, as will his stories, energy and humour. The book is designed to provoke thought as well as action. As such, there will be activities to complete and homework that challenges readers to embed new ways of thinking. Most of all, the reader can expect quirkiness and fun. The content will include some or all of: Why happiness is the biggest mis-selling scandal of all time Why most people are a million miles away from feeling as great as they could Happiness lessons from around the world The absolute truth about money and happiness Small changes that will super-charge your career Why zebras dont get ulcers Why you should stick up for Mondays How to create a 25th hour How to cure road rage (and all other types of rage) Top tips so you can feel amazing, often against the odds The cheats guide to positive parenting How to win the lottery guaranteed)"-- Provided by publisher |
