Summary
Build a more fulfilling life with the practical, science-backed guide to happiness, resilience, and personal growth.
THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
You can get happier. And getting there will be the adventure of a lifetime.
In Build the Life You Want, Harvard Professor Arthur C. Brooks and Oprah Winfrey invite you to begin a journey toward greater happiness, no matter your situation.
Drawing on cutting-edge science and decades of real-world experience, they show you how to improve your life right now instead of waiting for the outside world to change. Through this practical guide, you’ll learn how to:
- Manage your emotions so they no longer control your outlook and behaviour
- Turn life's inevitable difficulties and challenges into opportunities for growth
- Strengthen your family ties by managing your expectations and building trust
- Create and preserve deep and lasting friendships at any age
- Develop an approach to work that fits your life and brings satisfaction
- Find your inner peace with a spiritual practice
Sharing lessons from their own lives alongside inspiring real-world examples, Brooks and Winfrey introduce practical, research-based strategies to show you that happiness is not a destination, but a skill you can build every day.
Written with warmth, clarity, and openness, Build the Life You Want is your practical and uplifting blueprint for a better life.

Life. Am glad I read the “from strength to strength” book before listening to this.
I will love my adults children and friends to read this book or listen to the audio version.

I had the same experience with Paul McKenna’s superb book POSITIVITY. (A far deeper, smarter book than it might appear.) Sometimes just the audio is enough, sometimes it is not.
Really great, but I need a physical copy.
