INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
In Build the Life You Want, Arthur C. Brooks and Oprah Winfrey invite you to begin a journey toward greater happiness no matter how challenging your circumstances. Drawing on cutting-edge science and their years of helping people translate ideas into action, they show you how to improve your life right now instead of waiting for the outside world to change.
With insight, compassion, and hope, Brooks and Winfrey reveal how the tools of emotional self-management can change your life―immediately. They recommend practical, research-based practices to build the four pillars of happiness: family, friendship, work, and faith. And along the way, they share hard-earned wisdom from their own lives and careers as well as the witness of regular people whose lives are joyful despite setbacks and hardship.
Equipped with the tools of emotional self-management and ready to build your four pillars, you can take control of your present and future rather than hoping and waiting for your circumstances to improve. Build the Life You Want is your blueprint for a better life.

      The Harvard leadership professor and happiness scholar narrates the chapters, and Oprah delivers the introduction, some chapter prefaces, and a concluding segment. Both are beguiling speakers whose resonant clarity and authentic engagement make this material a treat to hear. Together they make these well-known truths about happiness sound fresh: Control what you can control, stay connected to your family and friends, work toward a meaningful purpose, and embrace your position in the spiritual world. Arthur C. Brooks's down-to-earth insights and suggestions are immediately motivating, while Oprah's relaxed authenticity and generous heart validate his message in a way that only she can. What makes their collaboration even more powerful is their audible commitment to these tried-and-true ideas and their love of humanity, which pulses strongly throughout this exceptional audiobook.
