Crappy to Happy by Cassandra Dunn
Crappy to Happy contrasts two opposite feelings, but how do we become happy after feeling crappy? The title caught my eye as it’s part of the Health and Wellbeing collection.
This book is simple, super concise, and straight to the point, offering useful psychological tips and wisdom. Cassandra reflects on the idea that happiness is found in the journey, not the destination. It comes from a sense of purpose and meaning in life. She acknowledges that we all experience difficulties, from minor hurts and grievances to more significant challenges, which can upset us even though they’re completely out of our control.
Cassandra’s research highlights that happiness is contagious, so being positive and feeding our minds with optimism will spread good vibes to those around us.
She provides practical tips for learning skills and gaining knowledge to help us become happier and more positive in life. Some of these tips include: 'be less busy,' 'learn to let go,' 'be kind to yourself,' 'think happier thoughts,' 'find your people,' 'determine your direction,' 'get out of your own way,' 'expect good things,' 'make a difference,' and 'find your purpose in life.'
I recommend reading this book about happiness. It’s short, filled with interesting facts, and offers motivational and practical advice that Cassandra shares with us. These strategies can help in various aspects of personal and professional life, emphasising the value of happiness.
