Finding happiness is less about learning new tricks and more about unlearning ways of thinking holding you back: Stop chasing happiness, stop obsessing over what others think, stop caring too much about how you feel, stop making sacrifices for personal success.
For seven consecutive years, Finland has been nominated the world's happiest country. Our secret? Finns don't care too much about happiness. When the country was first nominated as the happiest, the overall reaction was one of disbelief and scepticism. The land of darkness, heavy metal, and valorised melancholy, where winter is always coming, was not ready to accept the accolade.
But it is true - Finns are happy. Your average Finn accepts life as it is, they are equipped with an energized
contentment, excitedly pursuing whatever project they have chosen for themselves.
Building on Frank's personal encounters with people from all walks of life during travels around Finland and abroad, this book blends personal stories and quirky anecdotes with the latest scientific research and ancient traditions to deliver a strong message about how you should approach life: what you should stop doing and what you should start doing instead, to find an enduring sense of contentment and an energizing sense of
purpose for your own life.
