In his new book Happy People Are Annoying Josh talks about how he had to face life on life’s terms, and define what happiness meant to him as a unique individual. He realized that external things like marriage, money, success, drugs, sex, or food will not fill up the “hole in the soul”. True, lasting peace and comfort come from doing the inner work. As Josh notes, he could not use external things to medicate things deep within himself.
