Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Discover the equation for happiness in this international bestseller.Solve for Happy is a startlingly original book about creating and maintaining happiness, written by a top Google executive with an engineer's training and fondness for thoroughly analyzing a problem. Mo Gawdat, a remarkable thinker whose gifts had landed him top positions in half a dozen companies and who ? in his spare time ? had created significant wealth, realized that he was desperately unhappy. A lifelong learner, he attacked the problem as an engineer would, examining all the provable facts and scrupulously following logic. When he was finished, he had discovered the equation for enduring happiness.Ten years later, that research saved him from despair when his college-aged son, Ali ? also intellectually gifted ? died during routine surgery. In dealing with the loss, Mo found his mission: he would pull off the type of 'moonshot' that he and his Google [X] colleagues were always aiming for: he would help ten million people become happier by pouring his happiness principles into a book and spreading its message around the world.One of Solve for Happy's key premises is that happiness is a default state. If we shape expectations to acknowledge the full range of possible events, unhappiness is on its way to being defeated. To steer clear of unhappiness traps, we must dispel the six illusions that cloud our thinking (e.g., the illusion of time, of control, and of fear); overcome the brain's seven deadly defects (e.g., the tendency to exaggerate, label, and filter), and embrace five ultimate truths (e.g., change is real, now is real, unconditional love is real).By means of several highly original thought experiments, Mo helps readers find enduring contentment by questioning some of the most fundamental aspects of their existence.'He explains how even in the face of the unthinkable, happiness is still possible' ?

Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveranderung. Solve for Happy presents a unique perspective on achieving and sustaining happiness, crafted by a top Google executive with an engineering mindset. In 2004, Mo Gawdat, a successful thinker and entrepreneur, confronted his own unhappiness. Approaching the issue as an engineer, he meticulously analyzed the problem and ultimately formulated an equation for lasting happiness. This research became a lifeline a decade later when he faced the tragic loss of his son, Ali, during routine surgery. In his grief, Mo found purpose: to help ten million people find happiness by sharing his insights through a book. A central idea in the narrative is that happiness is our default state. By adjusting our expectations to encompass life's full spectrum, we can combat unhappiness. To avoid common pitfalls, we must challenge six illusions that distort our perceptions, such as the illusion of time and control, and address the brain's seven deadly defects, including exaggeration and labeling. Additionally, embracing five ultimate truths--like the reality of change and unconditional love--can lead to deeper fulfillment. Through innovative thought experiments, Mo encourages readers to question fundamental aspects of their lives, guiding them toward lasting contentment.…
