Description
Being happy every day is nearly impossible for most people, but in his new book, “Happy Every Day-Simple, Effective Ways to Better Daysâ€, Bryan Hutchinson presents practical ways to capitalize on those every day moments and opportunities that we may be missing to be happier than we ever thought possible.
Bryan lays out 26 strategies to becoming a happier person from his life experiences that helped him overcome a painful childhood of disappointment and regret. He doesn’t promise any quick fixes or cures for depression or anxiety, but he does suggest that if a person wants to be happier in their daily life, that it is attainable simply by increasing our own personal awareness of what we already have or have accomplished.
Some of the strategies he presents in the chapters: ‘Laugh at Your Mistakes’, ‘Gratitude’, and ‘Affirmations’ aren’t anything groundbreaking or what we haven’t read or heard already, but his approach is. He writes in an uncomplicated, positive style, including anecdotes from his experiences, without the dry, disconnected psycho babble of many self-help books. His tone throughout the book is sincere and personal as though he is sharing down-to-earth advice with a friend.
“Happy Every Day†is a book that you can read straight through or start at any chapter that may interest you. There are writing/journaling exercises relevant to each chapter that you can do at the end or come back to do anytime.
The chapters, ‘Inspiration ‘and ‘Fail, To be Happy’, are particularly thought provoking that include unexpected ways (and unique journal exercises) to becoming a happier person.
With ‘Inspiration’, the author asks us to think and write about what some of the highest achieving athletes, writers and entertainers have gone through to get to where they are today. ‘Fail, To be Happy’ is one of the most compelling chapters in Bryan’s book. This chapter emphasizes the importance of not succeeding at everything and not being perfect. What? How can failing help a person find happiness? The author suggests it can by giving you an opportunity to grow as a person and learn from your mistakes, driving you to succeed at something greater.
Hutchinson’s easy going style and positive approach makes, “Happy Every Day†less of a how-to book on happiness, but more of why-not guide to happiness.
