Here are the simple truths that motivate people of any age to find and accept lasting happiness, illustrated with the stories of real people, and illuminated with the observations of spiritual leaders and great philosophers.

For more than three decades, attorney, financial consultant, and life coach Stephen M. Pollan has been advising clients and readers on the business of living--everything from home buying and employment contracts to marriage and parenting. He has taught his clients and readers to Die Broke (use assets rather than build up an estate), to stage Second Acts (reinvent their lives), and, most recently, to Fire Your Boss (take charge of their own work lives).

Throughout these books, Pollan stresses that attitudes as well as actions are essential to success. Indeed, over the years he realized that the happiest and most successful people he'd met were also those who were the most energetic and exuberant, regardless of their age. By noting these attributes and incorporating them in his own life, Pollan came to understand that our attitudes are not just one element of succeeding at the business of living, they are in fact the foundation of leading a happy life.

Attitude is everything.

Those attitudes most essential to our deepest satisfaction and happiness reflect what our spiritual leaders and philosophers from every major tradition have taught us. We don't have to look to external forces to validate us and give us self-worth. We already have within us all we need to find fulfillment and lead happy, satisfying lives--lives without regrets.

To finally be happy we need to accept responsibility for our own happiness. When we know the secrets are already inside us, all we have to do is start living them. With this book, we can begin now.

Synopsis:
I'm going to let you in on a secret: you've already got everything you need to be happy. You don't need to land a new job or change your career. You don't need to find a mate or lose weight. Being happy requires no change in your personal, work, or financial life. There's no need to talk to a plastic surgeon or career counsellor to feel better about yourself and your life. We've been taught and raised to believe happiness is somehow linked to our position in the world: where, how, with whom, and even how long we live. This is an insidious myth. No amount of money, no other person, no level of professional success will ever be enough to make you happy. Only you can make yourself happy. In "It's All in Your Head", Stephen M. Pollan and Mark Levine weave the moving stories of real people with the observations of great philosophers and spiritual leaders, to reveal the simple truths that Pollan has seen reflected in the lives of successful, fulfilled, and energetic people. By taking responsibility for your own happiness, you have the opportunity to reach fulfilment today, rather than "when...".
