Rich Roll interviews many inspirational people and Neil is the latest on his podcast. This conversation is about being happy and ways to achieve living in a state of happiness. It made sense to include this conversation in today’s newsletter because May is Mental health awareness month. Below is a bit more about Neil Pasricha and his new book. The conversation specifically about happiness begins around 1.23. Hope you get something out of this resource.
Amazon summary:
Neil Pasricha is a Harvard MBA, a New York Times–bestselling author, a Walmart executive, a father, a husband. After selling more than a million copies of the Book of Awesome series, in his new book The Happiness Equation, Pasricha illustrates how to want nothing and do anything in order to have everything. If that sounds like a contradiction in terms, you simply have yet to unlock the 9 Secrets to Happiness. Each secret takes a piece out of the core of common sense, turns it on its head to present it in a completely new light, and then provides practical and specific guidelines for how to apply this new outlook to lead a fulfilling life.
The Happiness Equation is a book that will change how you think about pretty much everything—your time, your career, your relationships, your family, and, ultimately, of course, your happiness.
