Description
'The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.' Mark Twain Are you happy? Do you know your life's purpose? The search for happiness is hardwired in our DNA. It transcends age, gender, geography, vocation, and personal circumstances. Most people spend their lives on a quest for happiness that is long lasting, but the journey is often thwarted by short-term pleasures and dead ends. Ancient philosophers and modern scientists agree that the best way to be happy is to live a purpose-driven life. In The Two Most Important Days, Dr. Sanjiv Chopra and Gina Vild present powerful and practical steps that show you how to discover your life's singular purpose and follow it with passion. They share their personal wisdom and explore the power of gratitude, forgiveness, music, meditation, friendship, yoga, and so much more. Through captivating stories, scientific studies, exercises for children and adults, and poetry that will inspire, this book is a map to finding your purpose. It is also a spark that will light a flame of sustained happiness, joy, love, and bliss. 'This majestic book has much wisdom to savour and practical steps to help you navigate life's many forks. I promise it will delight!' Deepak Chopra
