What is a good life?” has been a question asked by philosophers going back to the ancient Greeks. But somewhere along the line we abandoned the question, and over time our society’s notion of success has taken us further from a life of meaning, fulfillment and authentic connection. In “How To Live A Good Life,” Jonathan Fields provides simple, scientifically-validated daily prompts designed to help you find your own good life, and then live it.Arianna Huffington, co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post Media Group, New York Times bestselling author of THRIVE and The Sleep Revolution.
HOW TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE delivers on the promise of its title, with a plethora of practical tips and in-depth exercises to help you become the best you can be. Get off of autopilot. And get into a life of positive energy, meaningful relationships, and powerful purpose with this inspiring — and fun — book.Daniel H. Pink, author of DRIVE and TO SELL IS HUMAN
Sometimes, the simplest ideas make the biggest difference in our lives. In How to Live a Good Life, Jonathan Fields offers a simple yet powerful lens through which to look at your life and design your days – through connection, contribution and vitality. Let Jonathan take you by the hand and give you real actions that bridge the gap between your big idea and your awakened life. His work is not just a wake-up call, it’s a roadmap and a rousing reminder of your gifts.Elena Brower, Author, Art of Attention
With his trademark warmth, intelligence, and awesome sense of humor, Jonathan Fields does more than explain how a good life is possible–he gives point-by-point, actionable steps to make it so. Based on his personal experience, the wisdom garnered from contributors to his Good Life Project (some of the world’s greatest thinkers on happiness), and his massively wonderful Good Life tribe, this not so much a self-help book as a field guide to your good life. It turns out that a good life, with all of its wonder, brilliance, and chaos is far, far better than a perfect life. I can think of no wiser (or kinder) guide than Jonathan.Susan Piver, Author of Start Here Now: An Open-Hearted Guide to the Path and Practice of Meditation
How to Live a Good Life skillfully pairs potentiality with action. Fields’s voice is refreshingly down-to-earth, and his enthusiasm is contagious. My ‘Good Life’ buckets runneth over after reading this book! I’ve drunk The Good Life Kool-Aid and suspect a lot of others will too!Kristen Noel, Editor-In-Chief, Best Self
