About this book
Summary
Discover why achieving success leaves you feeling empty and unfulfilled. This groundbreaking exploration reveals how our culture's definition of success actively works against human happiness and well-being. Learn the neuroscience behind the hedonic treadmill and why chasing external achievements keeps you trapped in endless dissatisfaction while genuine fulfillment remains just out of reach. From yak herders in Bhutan to lottery winners, from ancient philosophy to modern psychology, uncover why contentment comes from within rather than from accomplishments. Understand how to subordinate external achievement to internal alignment and find satisfaction in presence rather than endless pursuit of the next milestone.Book information
