Product Description

Product Description

How often do you find yourself using the phrase: ‘This is all too good to be true’ or ‘All good things come to an end’? It is all too common a belief that in order to be happy you must earn, deserve, work and pay for it. Happiness is for tomorrow. Today is for well-behaved hardship, martyrdom and quiet desperation.

With a combination of stories, exercises, meditations, poetry and prayer, Robert focuses on keys to emotional healing, true self-acceptance, relationships, inner confidence, and pure peace of mind. Challenging, helpful, visionary and practical, Happiness Now! shows how we can begin to enjoy the happiness we truly deserve.

5.0 out of 5 stars Got Happiness?, 3 Jan 2009
I've read a lot of happiness books and those written for the popular read always seem to fall into one of two general categories. Some of them, like Finding Happiness in a Frustrating World, are based on scientific research and what has positively been proven to make people happier in controlled trials. Yet others take a less scientific approach and try to make you happier by re-framing your thinking through wisdom and enlightening stories- which is just what you'll get in Happiness Now!: Timeless Wisdom for Feeling Good FAST.

Now while I'm a little more biased towards the scientific approach, let it be said there is MUCH to be gained by reading a book like this. It's what I like to think of as a "cognitive therapy" approach to making one happier. Cognitive therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps people overcome their problems by identifying and changing dysfunctional thinking- which is just how I feel this book accomplishes its goal of trying to make people happier.

One interesting point of the book is that happiness is a decision, and that you can have it right now- hence the title of the book. Of course if it was thar easy, you or I wouldn't need to be reading a book about how to be happy, now would we? Therefore, the bulk of the book is spent discussing obstacles that get in the way.

To that end, one of the many quotes in the book goes like this, "A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes." And changing your attitude for the better is definitely one thing this book succeeds at. Happy trails!

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful reminder that happiness is now, 4 Dec 1999
A wonderful book reminding us that happiness is inside us now, but we are looking for it outside us, in the wrong places. Using a beautiful blend of spirituality, psychology, poetry and stories, Robert helps us identify and undo the conditioning that we have all accumulated that blocks our awareness of what is already inside us. Without doubt, one of the best books I have read.

5.0 out of 5 stars "It does what it says on the tin", 29 Oct 2007
By AD "AD" (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
Happiness Now, "It does what it says on the tin", what a fantastic book!!!
NO jargon, no must's, should's and ought to's, Robert guides us through the art to happiness with sensitivity, reality and love. We are "allowed" to be wherever we are at the time without feeling guilty that we might not be "doing it right", and we are given the lifeline that we have everything we need inside of each of us to be who we really, truly and powerfully are. How relieving it is to know that there is nothing outside of us that can make us happy and that we can choose in any moment how we want to be, that's a big one and a constant reminder to me. Read this book it will change your life.
