You Can Be Happy No Matter What


This book has helped me out quite and bit and i have given a copy to many people i know in my life so i thought i would share it with you all. I know the title sounds corny but the book is packed with knowledge of psychology and the human mind. It's an inexpensive and fairly short book, but it is worth it's weight in gold! Dr. Carlson reveals a profound breakthrough in human psychology. He shows that happiness has nothing to do with forces beyond our control, and, in fact, our natural state is contentment. With this simple and practical guide, Dr. Carlson shows us how to be happy now, before we solve our problems!

Here is a random review i found on amazon. So if you are not taking my word for it take a random persons!

"Ever felt like depression and negativitity were swamping all the happiness out of your life? Then read this book before you turn to Prozac. When I first found this book, back in 1997, I instantly recognized myself in Dr. Carlson's descriptions of the way thoughts can play through one's head and cause you to act in reactionary, emotional ways when one is experiencing what he calls a "low mood." He teaches readers, though, through a step by step process, how to return once again, to a state of "healthy psychological functioning." This book is NOT another "positive thinking" book. No, it is one of the most profound little books you'll ever pick up. It teaches you how to recognize "low moods" and to avoid action during low moods. It shows how to return to "normal functioning." After reading the book version several times a year for the last couple of years, I recently bought a two-tape audio version of this book, which is read by the author, and allows me to review the book's key principles whenever I feel a low mood setting in for too long. Not just a book. A great mental health tool."

I should read this. I'm pretty happy right now, or at least content.

On my day off, Sunday, I have been trying to go on a vacation. 2 weeks ago I went hiking. Last week I went to Atlanta.

Just gotta get out and do stuff out of the norm and laugh at those that don't.
