Gretchen Rubin had an epiphany one rainy afternoon in the unlikeliest of places: a city bus. ?The days are long, but the years are short,? she realized. ?Time is passing, and I'm not focusing enough on the things that really matter.? In that moment, she decided to dedicate a year to her happiness project.
In this lively and compelling account?now updated with new material by the author?Rubin chronicles her adventures during the twelve months she spent test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific research, and lessons from popular culture about how to be happier. Among other things, she found that novelty and challenge are powerful sources of happiness; that money can help buy happiness, when spent wisely; that outer order contributes to inner calm; and that the very smallest of changes can make the biggest difference.
This updated edition includes:
A new extensive interview with the author
A guide to dozens of free resources for readers
The Happiness Project Manifesto
An excerpt from Gretchen Rubin's bestselling book The Four Tendencies

The Happiness Project Manifesto
An excerpt from Gretchen Rubin's bestselling book The Four Tendencies
I'm the author of the New York Times bestsellers "The Happiness Project," ?Happier at Home? and ?Better Than Before.? I write about my experiences as I test-drive the wisdom of the ages, current scientific studies, and lessons from popular culture about happiness, habits, and human nature. My next book will hit the shelves in summer 2017: ?The Four Tendencies: The Surprising Truth about the Four Hidden Personality Types That Drive Everything We Do.?

My previous books include a bestselling biography of Winston Churchill, "Forty Ways to Look at Winston Churchill,? and one of John Kennedy, ?Forty Ways to Look at JFK.? My first book, ?Power Money Fame S..: A User's Guide,? is social criticism in the guise of a user's manual. I wrote ?Profane Waste? in collaboration with artist Dana Hoey. I've also written three dreadful novels that are safely locked away in a drawer.
Before turning to writing, I had a career in law. A graduate of Yale and Yale Law School, I clerked for Justice Sandra Day O'Connor and was editor-in-chief of the Yale Law Journal. I live in New York City with my husband and two daughters.
