Are You Happy Yet?
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That's what we're all entitled to, right? But do you sometimes feel like you're working harder and harder on the "pursuit" and achieving less and less happiness?
That's what Ted Leonsis—former AOL vice chairman and owner of the NHL Washington Capitals—wants to talk with you about. In his inspiring new book, The Business of Happiness: 6 Secrets to Extraordinary Success in Work and Life, Ted reveals an amazing paradox: it's not success that makes you happy; it's happiness that leads to success.
And Ted should know. At age 27, Ted sold his innovative Internet start-up for $60 million. Yet, when he found himself face to face with his own mortality in a near-death experience, he came to a startling and unsettling realization: he was rich and successful, but he wasn't happy.
From that moment on, Ted dedicated his life to discovering how to achieve true and lasting happiness. And in The Business of Happiness, Ted explains how he and many other successful businessmen, celebrities, athletes, and "regular folks" have discovered the six habits that foster lasting happiness—and how that happiness ultimately leads to great success.
Ken Chenault, CEO and Chairman of American Express, says, "In The Business of Happiness, Ted offers a personal guide to navigating the traditional boundaries between work and life. His insights on business, career planning, and how to succeed in today's 24/7 environment reflect the wisdom of a renaissance man."
And David Stern, Commissioner of the NBA, states, "Anyone who aspires to being both successful and happy would do well to read The Business of Happiness."
