Ever wonder why we think something will make us happy, only to be let down when we get it? Daniel Gilbert’s Stumbling on Happiness dives into the fascinating science behind our pursuit of happiness—and why we often get it wrong! Gilbert, a psychologist, explores how our brains trick us into believing we know what will make us happy, even when we have no clue. It’s a game-changer!

You might think you know what will bring you joy, but here’s the kicker: research shows that we’re surprisingly bad at predicting our future happiness. We base our decisions on faulty assumptions, misjudging what will truly fulfill us. From career choices to relationships, we make the same mistakes over and over again—because our brains just don’t know how to predict what will make us feel good in the future.

Gilbert’s book is packed with mind-blowing insights on how our minds work—and how we can outsmart them. Want to make better choices? Stumbling on Happiness gives you actionable tools to reframe your thinking and get closer to true happiness. No more falling for the wrong traps!

It’s not just theory; Gilbert takes you step by step through psychological research that reveals how we misjudge our happiness.
