Description

The pursuit of happiness is codified in our Declaration of Independence, and is deeply woven into our DNA. When we are happy, chemical neurotransmitters in the brain increase and give us a sense of well-being. We crave this feeling. According to the World Happiness Report the US ranks 23rd in happiness. Well behind Iceland, New Zealand, and Denmark. We are also behind our neighbors to the north, the Canadians. Is it possible that we have too many options, too many choices to be truly happy with our decisions? This book explores why Americans are often at least somewhat unhappy. It has much to do with orange juice in Denmark, and donuts in Canada. By understanding our level of dissatisfaction, we can begin to become happier, and more satisfied with ourselves, our lives, and the people we choose to love and befriend.
