The Thinking Person's Guide to Happiness by Ruth Searle

We all want to see our dreams come true, but research suggests that, while 70 per cent of wish things would change, only 2 per cent of us actually take action to achieve it! Using the latest neurobiological discoveries, this book explains that if we can understand how our brains think, we can make our minds work for us and live fuller and happier lives. Subjects covered include: how we create our reality; your brain and behaviour; ingrained belief systems; mind blocks such as fear of failure, fear of what others think; how to focus; how to persist; how to experiment; specific ways to organise your goals, including the four-month plan; enlisting help; balancing your dream with others' demands; and, staying motivated and coping with setbacks.
Ruth Searle is a marine biologist working on a PhD on humpback whale behaviour. A former hospice nurse, she has written science textbooks, as well as five business books and academic articles for a wide range of publications including the New Scientist, The Journal of Natural History, Brain and Behavioural Sciences and BBC Wildlife magazine.
