The Happiness Project: A Book


A few days back, I declared myself officially having my quarter life crisis. I asked the Almighty for some help with what to do with my life. Today I stumbled upon a book called The Happiness Project and seeping through its first few pages – I thought I wanna shout to God for joy in the middle of the bookstore for giving me straight answers to my burning questions.

The author was having her midlife crisis. Mine was quarter. The author realized she had always wanted to be a writer (while stuck with another job). Just yesterday, I thought I wanted to go back to writing again. The author wanted to study Photoshop. I had always wanted to create my own designs for my blog. The Happiness Project started out as a blog. And the author was a blogger. I also am.

There’s just too many similarities with me and the author that I saw on the first few pages of the book. I wanted to know what The Happiness Project is all about and I am determined that I may be able to create my own “happiness project” too just like what the author did.

Sometimes, God gives straight answers to our prayers.

  2. Whether you're seventeen and struggling to figure out what you want to do with your life or you're fifty and find that you're hitting a major midlife crisis - The Happiness Project is for you. In fact, as the author herself says in her introductory note, "Whenever you read this, and wherever you are, you are in the right place to begin.
