Rediscover the superpower that makes good things happen, from the professor behind Yale School of Management's most popular class “The new rules of persuasion for a better world.”—Charles Duhigg, author of the bestsellers The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better You were born influential.

Award-winning Yale professor Zoe Chance will show you how to rediscover the superpower that brings great ideas to life.

Welcome to my book about how to pursue the superpower of happiness throughout the chapters of your WorkLife Story. Here is a preview of what’s inside, along with the main ideas and the meaning behind these. WorkLife is our life at work, where we spend one third of our lives. It is also the impact our work has on our life outside of work, and the impact our life outside of work has on our work. All areas of our life in and out of work are so intrinsically linked, they cannot be separated, nor do I believe should they. I believe WorkLife needs to be considered holistically. What does happiness mean in the world of WorkLives? Of course, there is not one definition, but rather a general consensus that little things count and can make a difference. Happiness is linked to motivation, and in WorkLife people are often happy when they are trying to achieve goals that are difficult but not out of reach, and are taking steps to fulfil their aspirations and dreams. In this book I tell four stories: 1. The Beauty of the Little Things in Life: Patricia’s story of how small changes in her day-to-day WorkLife had a big impact on her happiness. 2. A Life Lived with “What If”: Wayne’s story of how a threat to his WorkLife happiness gave him the impetus to explore his “What If” when considering his options in knowing what to pursue next. 3. Creating a WorkLife you Love that Fulfils your Wants and Needs: Terry and Anne’s stories of how they got creative and inventive in doing what they could with what they had, in creating opportunities for themselves, in carving out a WorkLife that fulfilled their happiness. 4. What’s Standing in the Way of My Happy Ever After?: Sam’s story of how she faced this question at different stages of her WorkLife, and where it led her. I share the exercises that helped to work through these challenging situations to resolve the dilemmas. I present these exercises as the following assignments for you to work through: Your WorkLife Happiness Assignment This assignment is to help you to evaluate your WorkLife happiness, examine potential threats and plan the steps for bringing and maintaining happiness to your WorkLife. Develop a Practice of Continuous Self-Feedback Assignment This assignment is to help you to pay attention to all the things you do every day, week or month, and to ask yourself what you want to do more of, or less of, or what you do not want to start doing at all. Develop a Practice of Insightful and Effective Self-Questioning Assignment This assignment is to help you to continue to ask insightful questions pertaining to your WorkLife happiness. What If? Assignment This assignment is to help you to address any obstacles and fears you may have which are holding you back, when you want to try something in pursuit of happiness. Pursuit of Happiness Journaling Assignment This assignment is to help you to reflect upon two important questions in your pursuit of happiness.
