This book is available at Periplus in Indonesia and also on Amazon. It is a guidebook to take you in the right direction with INFORMATIVE, INSIGHTFUL, FUN and prompt you to take specific ACTIONS towards your desired life.
I had the pleasure of doing a Skype interview with Carl on his book. We had planned it to be just 5 mins long but it was so much fun that we did spilled it over two parts of 5 mins each.
Here is Part 1 of the Interview
And Part 2…
Some of the questions I asked Carl are as below:
1. Why did you write The Guidebook to Happiness (TGTH)?
2. What was the biggest thing you realized in your research?
3. So can we change our level of set happiness? if so, how?
4. You call yourself a happiness strategist. What does that mean?
5. Do you have a favorite happiness strategy?
6. Are you happy all the time?
7. It seems beliefs are important, can you explain this better?
8. Is it bad to have so called negative emotions?
9. When and why did you get into personal development?
10. You talk about the power of daily rituals. Can you expand on this?
