Book excerpt: Vernon Night is the CEO of LA's hippest advertising agency. Vernon Night also has issues. His divorce is getting ugly. His Go-To guy is a closet drug addict. He's mad as Hell on a daily basis. His newest client: God. Seems The Lord has some issues as well. Namely, that no one cares about Heaven anymore. In the Hip-Hop age of Internet Porn and Reality TV, who has time for "Goodness"? So now the Creator of us all needs some creative direction of Her own.

Download or read book The Happiness Industry written by William Davies and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Deeply researched and pithily argued.” —New York Magazine “A brilliant, and sometimes eerie, dissection” of ‘the science of happiness’ and the modern-day commercialization of our most private emotions (Vice) Why are we so obsessed with measuring happiness? In winter 2014, a Tibetan monk lectured the world leaders gathered at Davos on the importance of Happiness. The recent DSM-5, the manual of all diagnosable mental illnesses, for the first time included shyness and grief as treatable diseases. Happiness has become the biggest idea of our age, a new religion dedicated to well-being. Here, political economist William Davies shows how this philosophy, first pronounced by Jeremy Bentham in the 1780s, has dominated the political debates that have delivered neoliberalism. From a history of business strategies of how to get the best out of employees, to the increased level of surveillance measuring every aspect of our lives; from why experts prefer to measure the chemical in the brain than ask you how you are feeling, to why Freakonomics tells us less about the way people behave than expected, The Happiness Industry is an essential guide to the marketization of modern life. Davies shows that the science of happiness is less a science than an extension of hyper-capitalism.
Download or read book Manufacturing Happy Citizens written by Edgar Cabanas and published by Polity. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The imperative of happiness dictates the conduct and direction of our lives. There is no escape from the tyranny of positivity. But is happiness the supreme good that all of us should pursue? So says a new breed of so-called happiness experts, with positive psychologists, happiness economists and self-development gurus at the forefront. With the support of influential institutions and multinational corporations, these self-proclaimed experts now tell us what governmental policies to apply, what educational interventions to make and what changes we must undertake in order to lead more successful, more meaningful and healthier lives. With a healthy scepticism, this book documents the powerful social impact of the science and industry of happiness, arguing that the neoliberal alliance between psychologists, economists and self-development gurus has given rise to a new and oppressive form of government and control in which happiness has been woven into the very fabric of power.

Download or read book The Happiness Formula written by Gary King and published by . This book was released on 2016-05-25 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Happiness Formula: The Ultimate Life Makeover shares with readers a formula developed over years of research. It is about my real life experiences of tremendous highs and unfathomable lows. I used that hard earned wisdom to create a formula to help others evolve from victim to victorious. Over the last 25 years I have been active in the personal development world and interviewed literally thousands of participants. The questions asked were deep and the insights gained are priceless. Most humans search for miracles, focusing on financial, health and relationships. Many people run from challenges, avoiding them as if they were punishment, potentially leading them to becoming a victim of learned helplessness, or worse, learned hopelessness. All lives center around emotions that can either enhance our lives or seriously drain us of vibrancy. Our internal world controls our external world. We all search for Happiness, even though we do not have a clear definition other than what we've been taught in school regarding success. We've been conditioned to believe our academic education will serve us in our times of deep financial and emotional needs, but nothing could be further from the truth. We are masters of technology and victims of emotional reality. We must develop conscious parenting and skills to enhance our relationships. I offer you the choice of managing the effects of your precious life, or managing the cause . The implementation of Forgiveness, Honesty, Truth and Self Worth will create an internal skill set to effectively manage your external world. You are about to find out exactly what that means, and it will change your life forever.
