I’ve long been a fan of Gretchen Rubin and her Happiness Project.
She was one of the fantastic speakers at the World Domination Summit I attended in July. Her topic was self-knowledge and how being aware of who you are makes happiness much easier to achieve. It was fascinating and enjoyable.
The talk was full of nuggets like these:
In the talk, Gretchen explained the implications of being in each category. (I’m an Upholder, btw.)
You can learn more from Gretchen Rubin by reading her books, The Happiness Project and Happier at Home or reading her blog, The Happiness Project.
Or you can just spend 40 minutes watching the video of her World Domination Summit talk. Trust me, it’s 40 minutes well spent.

Gretchen’s next book is on habits. I can’t wait to read it!

Jacqui, thanks for your comment. Yeah, WDS is great—lots of inspirational speakers and attendees. I hope you enjoy Gretchen’s talk. You can actually see videos of almost all the talks here.

Janine, somehow, I hadn’t realized that you actually attended this year’s World Domination Summit. I’ve always thought it sounded great!
Thanks for your synopsis of Gretchen Rubin’s presentation—and especially for the link to her talk. Definitely, it seems like a worthwhile 40 minutes spent.
