Product Description

Review
'A most important book that shows us in practical terms how to remove the blocks to the awareness of our natural state, happiness.' -- Gerlad G. Jampolsky, M.D. Author of LOVE IS LETTIN

Product Description
Most of us believe that our happiness depends on outside circumstances, that by solving our problems, improving our relationships, or achieving success we will find contentment. But Richard Carlson shows us that happiness has nothing to do with forces beyond our control, and in fact, our natural state is contentment. With this simple and practical guide, he reveals how to be happy, now, before we solve our problems, by understanding five principles: Thought, Moods, Separate Realities, Feelings and the Present Moment. "You Can Be Happy No Matter What" is a navigational tool that gently guides listeners through life's challenges and restores the joy of living along the way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reader from Berkshire (uk), 11 Nov 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: You Can be Happy No Matter What: Five Principles for Keeping Life in Perspective (Paperback)
Wow, what a book!!

I heard about Richard Carslon through another Author called "Dave Pelzer", he mentioned him in one of his self-help books. I purchased this book and was unable to put it down!

I am suffering with Depression and have had it for several years. Im undergoing regular counselling and am trying to get my life into perspective. I have read a lot of "Self-Help" books and this book was by far the best read I have had in a long time.

Richard is a very clever man, his views/opinions and thoughts about life are amazing, his techniques are not something that you would think about for yourself unless prompted to do so, and even then you would need a reason to look at your way of thinking in the first place. Richard gives you the answers to your questions and really makes sense with everything he is saying. Throughout the book you feel as though he has read your mind. You begin questioning yourself, your attitudes and your beliefs, not for being wrong, but for what they could be... he even gives you techniques to try to do yourself.

I was getting to the stage whereby I did not think anything was helping me, but after reading this book, I was very impressed and am slowly attempting to gain another perspective on life.

A brilliant book, that if you brought for the same reasons as I did will take you far.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best ever book about improving your state of mind, 27 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: You Can be Happy No Matter What: Five Principles for Keeping Life in Perspective (Paperback)
This little book is a gem. If you are a moody person - and who isn't - then read it. If not, read it anyway. I can't think of book which has helped me sort out my thoughts in the way this one has. It's hard to summarise what reading it has given me but perhaps the main thing it's taught me is to let my brain work for me while I get on and enjoy life instead of always 'thrashing' my brain for answers. Carlson not only dispenses a little wisdom but shows us how to access our own. A must!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perhaps the only 'self help' book you will ever need., 3 May 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: You Can be Happy No Matter What: Five Principles for Keeping Life in Perspective (Paperback)
This relatively small book contains more instantly-usable wisdom than the aisles and aisles of other so-called 'self help' titles I've trawled through.

I went through a brief bad patch last year, and realised that, at 32, it was time to learn about my own psychological functioning and how to take charge of my own experience of life. Over several months, I read a few great titles on depression, self-esteem and general life coaching. However, this book contained more usable wisdom than all of the others put together. Perhaps it's the fact that I'd read the others beforehand; but I doubt that. In the first few pages, I was thinking "this is it!"

I'm no self help book junkie, but if you're looking for a book that will help *you* to change your own experience for the better in a way that not many people are aware they're capable of, this is the one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely excellent....but only for so long
When I first read this book in 1997/98 it was great, and had immediate impact; however its impact was less than "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" or "Feel the Fear and do it... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Helpful but not life-changing
This is a fairly helpful book, but quite repetitive despite being short, and it could easily be summarised on one piece of paper (in fact, I did). Read more
