The Happy Project Manager Most people who know me would say I'm generally a happy guy--rather optimistic by nature. I've always been a bit skeptical about books on the subject of happiness. My concern is that they would be filled with shallow platitudes, assuming that the ultimate goal for ourselves is self-focused pleasure. Thankfully, that bias didn't keep me from agreeing to read Michelle Gielan's new book Broadcasting Happiness: The Science of Igniting and Sustaining Positive Change. To learn more about Michelle and the work of her organization, visit http://BroadcastingHappiness.com/.   Join My Periscopes This Month!
