Summary

How happy are you on a scale of 1-10? Regardless of what number you answered, the more important question is, what would it take to make that number a 10? In this special replay of one of 2021's most popular episodes, I speak with Harvard happiness professor Arthur Brooks about living a better and happier life. You’ll learn: The three ingredients of happiness and how you can make them part of your life. Why unhappiness is essential in finding happiness and how you can make peace with unhappiness. How you can make achieving happiness easier by understanding who you are and who you are not.
