About this audiobook
Bestselling author and internationally known stress-management consultant Dr. Richard Carlson reveals a profound breakthrough in human psychology. Most of us believe that our happiness depends on outside circumstances, that by solving our problems, improving our relationships, or achieving success we will find contentment. But Dr. Carlson clearly shows that happiness has nothing to do with forces beyond our control— in fact, he says, it is our natural state. In this simple and practical recording, Dr. Carlson shows us how to be happy now, before we solve our problems.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Muy buen libro, me gusta mucho este autor, muy útil
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love how simple this book breaks things down. The author explained all these “common knowledge” and explained them in a way that gave me that ah-ha! moment. There are a lot of repetition in this book, but I did not mind it. It helps me to remember all the fundament points the author was talking about. It was my first audiobook ever and my first self help book and I think it did wonderfully. Hopefully I can keep all that were taught in mind and practice what was preached. Yay to happiness!!!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5To good to be true. I've read a lot of what I can "self-help" books and this is not one of the better ones. The book repeats itself many times over to fill in the pages. This books says to control your thoughts and understand where the other person is coming from with their thoughts. There are aspects of this that could be helpful. However, the problem with many of these books is that they are built on the premise that we live in a perfect world were you just instantly make a change 100% of the time. There are many, many other books out there that are much more helpful than this one.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Is a bit repetitive in order to fill the book but there are lots of simple measures to think about - good value and very helpful.
