 I'll tell you if she ever reads it. October 5, 2008
1 out of 5 found this review helpful
I got this for my sweetheart because she was a bit down. She saw that it I meant well by it but has not read it probably because the last thing you want to do when your depressed is see that other people have noticed it too. If I ever get the chance to read it I'll let you know.
 The best self-help/motivational book i've read in ages September 25, 2008
'Happy for no reason' has to be the best motivational/self help book i have read in ages. Besides 'Feel the fear and do it anyway' by Susan Jeffers, Marci Shimoff get's right to the point. Happiness comes from within. I like a lot of people i know have never looked at happiness in this way.
I asked a friend if they were truly happy and they gave me the answer i expected, "Yes I'm happy because i have.........." It's the same with work collegues.
People are living unhappy lives and masking it with external things. They're happy because they have a pretty girlfriend, handsome boyfriend, nice house, money, nice job, designer clothes etc.......... but what if those things were taking away from them?
Happiness is internal and Marci breaks this down perfectly in 'Happy for no reason'.
Her study on the 100 happy people was interesting.
The one negative thing about this book was the input of 'Rhonda Byrne'. I think 'the secret' was a fantastic marketing and money making tool, it was designed for unhappy insecure depressed down on their luck individuals.
You can read 'Happy for no reason' and close the last chapter feeling no shame or blame. You can look at your life now and make gradual changes everyday to feel happier from the inside out. She informs you of the power of forgiveness, passion and purpose.
The exercises are good too. She doesn't spend pages trying to get you to buy any additional products.
This book has made a big impact on me. I look forward to more books by this author.

I have known for along time that money or things won't bring you happiness. If you are an unhappy person you will likely be even more unhappy if you some how happen to stumble on more money. Being happy is a choice and is sometimes easier said then done.
The importance of choosing happiness can not be underestimated because it is the only true path to a wealthy, healthy and inspired life. Sorry to be the Grinch that stole Christmas but the new Mercedes and big house just isn't going to do it for you. That's the bad news.
The good news is that choosing happiness will in fact increase your odds substantially in drawing to you anything you desire in life and that is why I love Marci's book. Happy For No Reason gives you the tools and strategies on how to choose and remain happy.
I think a book like this should be included as mandatory reading material for any college or university courses. Can you imagine what the world would be like if we all had to study happiness?
I get happier just thinking about the possibilities.
