Erin,

Thanks so much for picking my book, The Happiness Project! I appreciate you and your book club shinning a spotlight on my work.

Best wishes,Gretchen

Maybe we'll have the author in our book club, too! :)

Hope you all had a great weekend and a chance to pick up our first read.

Here's someplace to start our chat:

In the note to the reader, the author says, "A 'happiness project' is an approach to changing your life. First is the prepartion stage, when you identify what brings you joy, satifisfaction, and engagement, and also what brings you guilt, anger, bordem, and remorse."

Can you easily identify these things? What brings you joy, satisfaction, and engagement? How did you choose these things? What about guilt, anger, bordem, and remorse?

Also, in the dedication pages, the author quotes Robert Louis Stevenson and says:

"There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy."

Do you agree?

Do you think some people have an easier time being happy than others?

How much of happiness do you think is determined by our mindset

and how much by our circumstances?

Share your thoughts, ideas, questions, comments, ramblings, etc below.

Enjoy!
