Happy for No Reason

The idea presented in Happy for No Reason: 7 Steps to Being Happy from the Inside Out is to get the reader to become, well, "Happy for No Reason"- which the book defines as true happiness that isn't dependent on external circumstances. You can then take a questionnaire to see how close you are to being "Happy for No Reason." But if you're not quite there yet, how does the book intend to get you there? Well, by several ways: -you'll learn three guiding principles that will help you get past the common blocks to happiness -you'll learn how to apply the "Law of Attraction" to being happier -you'll learn about a seven-step program to become "Happy for No Reason". Each step has three "Happiness Habits" with corresponding exercises. -the author interviewed 100 happy people and shares 21 of their stories that define what it means to be "Happy for No Reason"- stories reminiscent of the "Chicken Soup" series. As you can see, there's plenty of good stuff in this book which will give you great advice and things to think about to help you "reframe" your thinking.

I am so happy I read this book!

"Happy for No Reason: 7 Steps to Being Happy from the Inside Out" by Marci Shimoff was full of gems and eye opening moments. The book is both enlightening and fun. I found myself smiling a lot while I was reading this book. One of the many things I loved about this book is that Shimoff says "You can't depend on external circumstances for lasting happiness. It has to come from inside you". This book put into perspective how it can be that two people with the same set of circumstances can have different outlooks, one can be miserable while the other can be happy. This is a book of short stories about Shimoff's "Happy 100". The stories were touching and I found it hard to put the book down. Another book of short stories I really enjoyed was "Being Here Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment" by Ariel & Shya Kane.
Fun to Read , Enlightening Too!

Happy for No Reason is delightful. It evoked many smiles and much gratitude for all that I have in my life! As I read on, amazingly, there was a shift away from self judgement and criticism. The author led me to a place where I could enjoy my birthright and embrace it with enthusiasm, gentleness and levity. The seven steps to a lifestyle of consistent well being and generosity have a magic that goes beyond her words, an inspiration that lifts one up just by being open to infinite possibilities. This book itself is an act of generosity! I highly recommend it and also suggest Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment by Ariel and Shya Kane. Both truly inspirational and enlightening books to have on your shelf!
You can be happy now.

The methods discussed in this book work. I know because I've used them. When I was very young, I studied metaphysics and was published in numerous metaphysical journals and self-help publications. I learned at an early age that if you want to be happy, you just have to act happy. If you want to be successful, you start by acting successful. The act or presenting the emotion or state of being that you want to achieve, brings that about --- or as I used to say --- it makes it manifest. You don't wait for happiness. You don't wait for success. You say, "I have happiness now." You act happy. And you become happy as a result. This is an empowering book. The methods are not new. Nothing is new, however. It is wonderful to read them again. And many people, much younger than me, have not read them. These people will greatly benefit from the book. Life gives what we put out. If we put out a happy image, we get happiness back. That's a law of nature that simply can't help but work. The same method applies to wealth, success or anything else we want. I highly recommend this book. It's time we read these wonderful methods again.
