If you are interested in how to live a happier life or feel like you are not dealing with situations the best way, this is the book for you.

I'd think, that I'm generally a very happy person. Some say even too optimistic, but there was still a lot to get from this book. I was interested in what I was doing right or if I was just being happy despite some bad habits and of course it's not that simple.

In showing how to do it wrong, this book reveals in a fun and intriguing way, why some behavior is so destructive to our lifes. It also points to how society got us there and why it is so hard to change those things.

If you are even a bit interested in how some behavioral quirks make life so hard, this is the book you should read.

Ich kann meine Enttäuschung, nein meine Wut, gar nicht wirklich in Worte fassen. Wie konnte ich nur glauben, dass dieses Buch noch eine Wendung zum Besseren nimmt? Ich hätte einfach gleich am Anfang aufhören sollen, statt weiterzulesen. Und ich rede hier nicht von der Welt, sondern der Schreibstil war einfach grottig. Ich kann einfach nicht mehr, das war eines der schlechtesten Bücher die ich je gelesen habe. Und ich habe es nur zu Ende gelesen, weil ich nicht glauben konnte, dass so etwas Buchpreise gewonnen hat.

Just as you come close to the end and you may think that you got the message and ain't doing so bad after all, this book just throws you into a mid-life crisis out of nowhere. I read three of the later strategies on the bus and had to pause, because they just hit me like three brick walls one after the other.
