About this audiobook

Challenge everything you believe about well-being and life satisfaction. This revolutionary analysis exposes how the happiness industry has misled generations by mistranslating ancient wisdom for profit. Discover why pursuing happiness makes you miserable, how meaning differs fundamentally from pleasure, and why the quest for constant positivity is a trap designed to keep you consuming rather than truly living. Learn about Aristotle's concept of eudaimonia, Viktor Frankl's meaning-centered psychology, and why modern positive psychology has led us astray. Explore the difference between hedonic and eudaimonic well-being, understand how consumer culture hijacked our conception of the good life, and discover what actually creates lasting fulfillment beyond fleeting pleasure and manufactured desires that never satisfy..
