The happiness advantage

The Seven Principles of Positive Psychology That Fuel Success and Performance at Work
Book • 2010
The Happiness Advantage challenges conventional wisdom that success leads to happiness.

Instead, Shawn Achor presents evidence-based strategies showing that happiness is the precursor to success.

Drawing on original research, including one of the largest studies of happiness ever conducted, Achor outlines seven practical principles such as the Tetris Effect, the Zorro Circle, and Social Investment.

These principles help readers rewire their brains for positivity and optimism, leading to improved performance, creativity, and overall well-being in both personal and professional life.
