Summary of Mo Gawdat's Solve for Happy

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Happiness is that feeling when everything seems right, when all of life's twists and turns and jagged edges seem to fit together perfectly. It is a human desire as basic as the drive to take the next breath.

#2 The default state is happiness. If you don’t believe me, spend a little time with a human fresh from the factory, an infant or toddler. They are perfectly happy as long as their most basic needs are met.

#3 When you use a programmed device, you sometimes change its default settings without meaning to. The same thing happens with the human default for happiness. Parental or societal pressure, belief systems, and unwarranted expectations come along and overwrite some of the original programming.

#4 The happiest communities in the world are actually in the poorer countries of Latin America, where people do not seem to think much about financial security or what we consider success. They work each day to earn what they need, but beyond that, they prioritize their happiness and spend time with their family and friends.
