Hello and welcome to Happier, a podcast about making life happier.

This week we'll talk about why it's often easier to do something every day than to do

it some days and how to handle your annoyance if someone you know is chronically late.

I'm Gretchen Rubin, a writer whose studies happiness, good habits in human nature.

I'm in New York City and with me is my sister Elizabeth Kraft, who I will get to see in

person very soon.

That's me, Elizabeth Kraft, a TV writer and producer living in LA and that's right Gretchen.

I'll see you soon in Seattle at our live event, which is Thursday, October 13th at 730

at Town Hall.

We're very excited and people can go to slate.com slash live for more information and to

get tickets.

Also in episode 76 we talked about why it was fun to write a manifesto and we have seen

such great manifestos from listeners.

So if you're coming and you have a manifesto, we would love to see it and maybe you can

come up on stage with us and we'll talk about your manifesto.

It can be about anything you want, work, marriage, parenting, life, exercise, whatever it is,

we want to see your manifesto.

And Gretchen and I are going to share our own manifestos about a topic yet to be revealed.

So that'll be fun too.

Yes, this suspense is mounting.

And speaking of previous episodes in our very special episode 80, we talked about the

five love languages.
