"Add Three Smiles to Your Day" and Other Simple, Practical Advice
If you want simple, practical suggestions of ways to increase your happiness, this is for you. Author/speaker/researcher Shawn Achor is a fun presenter who offers 5 easy, but profound and effective practices that you can add to your day to help you become more happy and successful. My favorite one is simply, "Add three smiles to your day." Make a conscious choice to smile at three people that you wouldn't naturally feel like offering a smile to. This could be a neighbor, grocery clerk, whomever. If you are like me, you may find yourself enjoying this so much that you will want to go far beyond the suggested three, and add lots of smiles to your day. You might even want to look in a mirror and smile at yourself! Sounds silly, maybe, I know. But give this, and the other suggestions, a try. You'll be HAPPY you did!

I liked Shawn on TED
I liked Shawn on TED, and this set has some great information. The reason I did not give it a 5 was that I thought the information density was lower than I expected.

All time favorite book
BEST BOOK EVER! This should be adopted into schools and used as a handbook for life. I have loved applying the lessons I've learned and now but it as required reading for my employees. Love it!

Disappointing. I had seen the author speak and hoped the Cd set would contain the same humor but add more scientific basis to his approach.
