Reseña del libro "Happiness to the 10th Power: A General Life Plan for Being Happy (en Inglés)"
Happiness is difficult to describe. No wonder philosophers have argued about how to attain it for centuries! Is there really a path to happiness? Yes, and T. Calvin Ward shares it in Happiness to the 10th Power (H10 for short). We've all met unhappy people. They come from every background, age group, and socioeconomic status. Thus, Ward chose to write a simple manual on how to find personal happiness that anyone can use. No pie-in-the-sky objectives that depend on wealth or youth or belonging to the"right group."Instead, Ward presents 10 factors that combine to enhance happiness. Everybody knows what they like and dislike--what brings them happiness (or at least what causes them to be unhappy). This book won't ask anyone to change these personal qualities. Rather, Ward teaches his readers how to prioritize the 10 elements so they support happiness based on personality, traits, and likes or dislikes. The first nine are religion and/or meditation, honesty, friendship and family (including pets), hobbies and special interests, charity, personal goals, freedom, vocation, and body maintenance. The 10th is an attitude that enhances the effectiveness of the first nine. By focusing on these 10 key components to happiness, Ward empowers his readers to map out their personal pathway to pleasure, joy, pride, gratitude, and other positive emotions. The route Ward lays out is simple. It just requires a willingness to follow each conviction the book prompts, to dedicate the effort necessary to change. Those who do will discover an inexhaustible well of happiness.
