New Happy: Getting Happiness Right in a World That's Got It Wrong by Stephanie Harrison
5.0
I’m happy. Yet, I’ve felt unsettled for some reason. Am I doing what I’m meant to be doing? Is what I’m doing enough and making a true difference? If I dabble in something “outside of my lane”, then am I making a wrong move? If I want to do more, do I have shiny object syndrome or simply dreams to chase?
Reading NEW HAPPY had the light bulbs going off! Stephanie brings up “the curse of knowledge”…this is why it is so hard to define our own speaking topics and expertise! Once we know something, it becomes hard to imagine not knowing it.
Your knowledge extends to more than what you know and have learned. It encompasses your life story and what you’ve been through. From NEW HAPPY, “Wise people choose to see pain and struggles in a different way; not just as an experience they personally need to get through, but something that can be transformed to help another person.”
This book helped me realize not only why I’m doing what I’m doing, but also why I am the way I am. Read this for encouragement on how you can change the world by simply sharing your gifts, talents and wisdom with others. This is one of the best books I've read!
