The chapter discusses the struggle of happiness for happiness experts and how they can use their knowledge to improve their own happiness. It features a conversation with best-selling author Arthur Brooks who shares his personal experience of applying happiness science to his own life, including writing a mission statement and changing habits.
Oprah Winfrey and Arthur Brooks want you to be happier - so the TV megastar and the Harvard academic teamed up to write a book setting out the steps you can take to be a little happier each day.
Over the summer, Dr Laurie Santos read Build the Life You Want, the Art and Science of Getting Happier and loved it. So she recorded a conversation with Arthur touching on how his son found meaning in the marine corps; why you should remove the all mirrors from your home; and whether happiness experts can ever be happy themselves.
