The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking

 We read self-help books that don’t seem to work and purchase the many advantages of modern life that fails to deliver happiness as advertised. Even wealth, if obtainable, won’t necessarily lead you to the path to happiness. So are we engaged in a futile pursuit? Or are we just going about it the wrong way? Oliver Burkeman shares with us his antidote for the much misunderstood idea of happiness.
