Happiness Is a Choice Paperback – January 3, 1994

I think this is not a great written book nor very helpful.

Don't read this book... not at first. Instead turn to the chapter on shortcuts. Read the first shortcut, put the book down, practice just that one, for a week... then read the next one, put the book down.... etc etc.... at the end of six weeks you'll think you never got such a steal of deal! Sooooo much relief, joy and happiness, for the price of a paperback book? YES. That's exactly what will happen if you practice the short cuts one per week for six weeks.... and then sure, read the rest of the book, it's a good book. But I'm telling you how to cut to the chase if you're a mind to. :)&-=Update 2022.11.12 I had just given this advice to a client, I had to specify, the RED cover Happiness is a Choice by Barry Neil Kaufman, and I thought, if I haven't left a review of this book giving this advice to DO the shortcuts daily all day long because it's habits and the six weeks is a good time to build em - then I need to do that right now. lol came here to discover that current me agrees with me in the past, completely. What can I say, when I'm right, I'm right. :))&-=

I read this book several years ago when I was having a difficult time balancing home & work. I gave it to a friend who was struggling after a divorce and he said it had made a significant difference in his life. He still thanks me every time we talk. - I purchased a new copy to help me through the loss of a child. It has helped me once again in realizing that how I live my life is about the choices I make. I highly recommend this book to everyone even if you are happy and content with your life. It will only add to that happiness.

its life's changing philosophy availabke to EVERYONE to be more happy - grateful - present- authentic and intact....More loving, accepting, kind and joyful!I got this book and did not stop reading until i have read it all. I was searching for information how to understand autism and how did they get rid of it. Instead i turnedmy primary search into ease and unnecessary wording. I received the gift of much more than expected. The gift of understanding the difference and of understanding myself. If possible and i know how to and Bears is ok with that i will vote to classify Bears philosophy and his work towards HEALING US from OURINCOMPETENT attitude towards our DIFFERENCES for the NOBLE PRICEat least so more people can change and experience healing within themselves.

This is a short, simple and compelling read which generates real results if you adopt the deceptively easy advice. I first read it when it came out and rediscovered it a couple of days ago and am very glad I did. Highly recommended.

This is a great book from the Option Institute. Read this and then read the works of the author's mentor and teacher, Bruce Di Marsico, and his Option Method, Unlock Your Happiness With Five Simple Questions The Option Method . Enjoy them both!

I think of myself as a happy person but I do find myself at times stressed unnessarily by life. This book showed me that I was not in the back seat happy as the result of what was going on around me but that I could find my happiness in even in very difficult circumstances. And some of the interoggatives the book generated in me helped me be not stressed in circumstances that would have previously have upset or frustrated me.

I, so far, only finished the 1st chapter of the book, but I am so touched and inspired by it that I had to come here and give some feedback. I am absolutely loving this book and can hardly wait to read more, when I have a chance.

Leitura tranquila e amplia muito nosso olhar. Recomendo.

grande lectrice ce livre était bien mais pas mon top 10

Really nice book I love the author. He is inspiring and his books are life changers. Recommend it and also "to love is to be happy with" made me find happiness.

This is a very easy-to-read book. It is a must-read for anyone who is feeling sad or down-in-the-dumps. Even in the worst of times, there are small, simple steps we can take to bring happiness to our lives. This book will offer many ways of doing this and the results are immediate! I have benefited greatly from this book, and I have given copies of it to many people over the years.

I love this book and give it to my friends and family as a gift all the time. I find the attitude of the author totally liberating, inspiring and revolutionary. If you have not read this, go ahead. You will not regret it. GUARANTEED!!!
