That’s when we say to ourselves: “I’m sick of being broke, sick of being kicked around. I’m tired of being mediocre. I’m going to do something.” Success we celebrate – but we don’t learn too much.

I love this book! I read it long time ago when I was in my early 20s. It's beautifully written and in my personal opinion, this book will be a good guidance for young women going through self doubt and looking for ways to find happiness rather than look inside themselves.
This is the one book that I refer to over and over again. My copy is dog-eared, highlighted throughout, and has tabs on my favorite pages.
Why do I love this book so much? Well, it is by far the best 'self-help' book out there! The author takes a serious subject, sadness and depression, and makes it light and enjoyable to read. The content is very basic and common sense, such as the law of attraction, the power of positive thinking, forgiveness, etc. Messages that I need to read over and over. Th..more

The author has a nearly childish way to explain his concepts but this is a book I rather liked. He explains the importance of self-image for us to understand the perspective that we embrace and even our view of others but also our careers and the types of lives we live. The author goes on to explain the concept of affirmation on how we see ourselves and others. And the role it has on making it difficult for us to expand our own view - it amounts to a fear of being conceited.

This is a very interesting book which was recommended to me by a friend who found it helpful. The book is full of helpful tips of how to cope with life and what you can do to improve it for yourself. It gives you pointers on how to encourage positive things into your life whilst getting rid of the negative.

Very few books have I given a rate of 5 stars, and this book is definitely one of them!

There are so many truths in this book, which are all so simple and valuable yet so often forgotten.

Holy Crap, this book was good!
I read this while I was at the lowest point of my life. I even jest to myself how pathetic I was to be needing such book. I thought I was gonna be bored or pissed at the author for trying to tell me what to do. Haha! But man, oh man, was I wrong!

'think positive thoughts and positive things will happen to you' there. Now you don't need to read the book. Go have fun in your life and don't waste it on this.
Jfc this is so old and it smells. This book really didn't age well. It's such 'American dream' weirdness and it's just so.. Useless.
Also this guy has literally no idea what depression is. Absolutely no freaking clue. Or anxiety! 'Just don't be scared of irrational bs!' There, you're cured!

I am grateful that a co-worker recommended this book to me when she did. I was at a very low point in my life, and was probably close to making a rash decision that I would regret later. This book has taught me that I am not defective, and that I have more control over me and the events in my life than I thought. To some this book may be a rude awakening, but it is an awakening well worth it. I would recommend it to everyone, not just those at a low-point in their lives. I know this is a book I..more

I definitely will recommend it to many people since this book is something that will definitely hold your attention even when you find it difficult to stay focused and read. Well written, straight to the point nothing going round the bush.
Easy to understand for everyone.
1 of the books I would highly recommend if you've just gotten into the habit of reading.

This is a good book. If you struggle with 'Being Happy' I would suggest you read it. And maybe re-read it. I do have one criticism - The author gives some examples from Abraham Lincoln's life that are factually incorrect (mostly about how old Abraham Lincoln was at certain events in his life). I read the 1990 paperback edition - perhaps they've corrected this in subsequent editions.

A great book containing little nuggets of truth
This book really brought together a lot of what I read in various places. From positive attitude to law of attraction to breaking bad habits, it is all covered in a short concise method that really brings positive results in your life. My kids now have their own copy to read and think about which path they will choose!

The line 'Don't judge a book by it's cover' is perfect for this book. It contains timeless observations and wisdom. If you feel you are not happy enough or feeling down, this might be just the book for you.
Good book may be for teenagers. Thats what I felt after reading some other authored self help books. Still I luved the pictures used in the book to demonstrate particular situation. Also. Summary in ‘Nutshell’ sounds good.
I finished this book very quickly, Enjoyed reading each and every page of it. This book just made me realize that happiness is a very personal decision and sometimes not getting what you really, really want can be a wonderful stroke of luck. The author is witty and makes you introspect different aspects of your life. This book really empowered me and gave me a reminder that just let go of things that you cannot control. I recommend this book to all the people who are willing to introspect their..more

Brilliant read! Being happy sounds simple but many find it difficult to follow. Matthews had brilliantly explained the concept of happiness that applies to adults and implementing them in real life. Thank you for this book!

I read this book back in college. It was a short and fast read.
I don't recall the outcome as to how it made me feel, but I do remember recommending it.

A short read. The author doesn't try to dive deeply into psychology aspects and thats fine. Graphics are a fine bonus.
A brilliant self help book that can change your life, focusing on solutions not problems, and teaches the mind to open up to more positive directions
