Happiness Is a Serious Problem

A Human Nature Repair Manual

De: Dennis Prager

Narrado por: Jeff Riggenbach

When you ask people about their most cherished values in life, "happiness" is always at the top of the list. But surprisingly, few people claim real happiness. We seem to be completely satisfied with nothing, and indeed, there is little correlation between the circumstances of people's lives and how happy they are.

In this book, lecturer, theologian, philosopher, and Los Angeles radio personality Dennis Prager ruminates on what makes happiness such a serious problem to solve. He discusses the difference between happiness and success, and between happiness and fun, and how to adjust our expectations of life. Prager maintains that insatiable human nature makes lasting happiness profoundly difficult to achieve, but that nevertheless, it can be a reality. When happiness is treated with the same level of seriousness that people bring to life’s other tasks, it becomes immediately more tangible and thus achievable.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Astonishing...anyone who feels unhappy more than he would like will benefit from reading this book." ( Wall Street Journal)

"Prager's latest book challenges readers to realize that they—not any outside force—are the greatest obstacle to happiness.” ( Los Angeles Times)

Great

I loved it. Well worth the read. You're in control of your own mental wellbeing.

Excellent read!

Makes sense the entire book. Great points. Definitely recommending to my family and friends. Thank you!

Concise, yet wide-ranging coverage

Happiness is my forte and I research every good book I can find. This one is a treasure trove of realistic, implementable thoughts, ideas and admonitions. It seemed as if Dennis Prager himself were narrating, so good was the narrator. Worth a second listen in a few months, I added it to my FAVS collection.

The life lesson from Dennis prager

I Loved this book
Dennis prager is so.smart and his wisdom knows no bounds. learned a lot

Good Insight, Prager needed to make delivery

Good Message and Insight But I would have liked better if it had been read by Dennis Pragar himself,

Great Analysis on the Pursuit of Happiness

Dennis Prager is very insightful and his book on the pursuit of happiness does not disappoint. The big take away I got from the book was that there are a variety of things in our lives that can contribute to one's happiness or sadness. And life is all about striking a balance or finding that middle ground. My only complaint was that I thought the audiobook would have been better if Dennis Prager himself would have narrated it.

Dennis Prager is the best!

This book is a phenomenal look into what happiness is and how man can achieve it. Dennis Prager's insight is intelligent and encouraging!

Great book

This book has so much wisdom I will need to listen to it again and again. Thanks for writing this book.

Prager hits a another home run!

Thoroughly enjoyed this thought provoking book and Dennis's perspective on how best to avoid those things that inhibit the achievement of happiness in this life and here after!

Great story!

Passionate moderation is what leads to happiness. Prager does a great job explaining his thoughts and using anecdotes to illustrate his point.
