Stumbling on Happiness

Totally saw this book at the Book Loft today, and regret not buying it! I initially heard about this book in class and so I've been keeping an eye out for it (but..with a reasonable price). 


One of the main points that Gilbert makes is that income does not increase our happiness after a certain point.  More specifically, once one reaches middle class, the relationship between happiness and income greatly diminishes.  However, we have discussed in class that those with really high incomes tend to be happier..but that is at the extreme end of the spectrum.


The main take-away is that more happiness will come from enjoying one's job (being engaged,  feeling psychologically safe, drawing meaning from the work) and having healthy social ties.
