Rarely do I read a book and think: everyone would benefit from reading this. Happy for No Reason is one of those scarce books brimming with ideas, inspiration, research, and guidance advantageous for all people. Think about it. Who doesn’t want to be happier, every day, in every moment? If you want to better understand what factors contribute to being happy and learn simple yet effective techniques to achieve greater happiness, take the time to read this book. You will undoubtedly be motivated and discover that happiness is within us all for the taking, we just need to be open and start cultivating it. After reading Happy for No Reason, I already feel happier! Thanks to Shimoff and Kline for reminding us that our circumstances do not determine our happiness—we do.

I can't say enough great things about this book. I LOVED this book. What attracted me to it initially was the subtitle--talking about being happy from the inside out. My avid readers know Inside Out Empowerment is all about an inside out transformation of your life. So, I picked up the book and read it in record time.

I loved it because Marci used research to make her point. She interviewed 100 people she determined to be happy from the inside out to learn their secrets to success. She then summarized those qualities, traits and behaviors into seven categories which she so clearly explains in this down-to-earth, easy-to-read book. She is a wonderful storyteller, sharing stories of the people she interviewed to make her points.

If you are serious about your own happiness and your effect on the happiness of others, then you need to add this book to your library. ( )

I agree with the title of the book. If there is no reason to be happy or sad go for happiness. While I have heard many of these things before there was enough new stuff that it was a good book to read. The one downside was she started to go into areas that were so obvious you wonder why she included it. There is a workbook on the website which has exercises and summarizes much of the book. ( )
