A respected expert on health mindset, well-being, and resilience argues that enjoyment is the main element to fast tracking our professional and personal success. Everyone would like to be happy and successful. Yet the quest for both hasn't been more elusive. As work and personal needs rise, we try to keep up by juggling everything better, moving faster, and doing more. While we may succeed in the short-term, it comes at a cost to your well-being, our human relationships, and, paradoxically, our productivity. In The Delight Keep tabs on, Emma Seppala, the science director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education at Stanford University or college, explains that our inability to accomplish sustainable fulfillment is linked with common but out-of-date notions about success. We have been trained that getting ahead means doing everything that's thrown at us (and then some) with razor-sharp focus and iron willpower; that success depends on our drive and talents; and that achievement cannot happen without stress. The Happiness Keep tabs on demolishes these counterproductive theories. Sketching on the latest conclusions from the domains of cognitive mindset and neuroscience - research on enjoyment, resilience, willpower, compassion, positive stress, creativeness, and mindfulness - Seppala shows that finding enjoyment and fulfillment may, in reality, be the most successful thing we can do to thrive professionally. Filled with practical advice about how to use these scientific conclusions to your daily lives, The Delight Keep tabs on is a life-changing guide to fast tracking our success and creating the anxiety-free lives we wish.
