NyTimes has a fascinating article about how to train your spouse or kids or even employees!
Don't nag,train your spouse!

And a book review of Dan Gilbert's book on happiness - lot of non-intuitive stuff on what will really make you happy!

Some more stuff by Gilbert:

Variety is not the spice of life - read how he buys lots of identical pants at Costco

Does parenthood really make you happy? Not what you think

Money does not make you happy either...then, what does? Read the answer

My take on all this?

Sounds like a cliche - the small things are what matter! Of course, big tragedies derail everything and it takes resilience to deal with them. But in absence of such tragedies, happiness seems to be in the small things that make YOU happy (only you know what they are). My small things are working on my laptop on yet another startup, reading, spending time with family and friends...

Would love your comments!!
