Great book from a former tech specialist at Google whose son was killed during a routine surgery accident. He found that the best way to overcome the suffering of this tragedy was to distance himself from friends and family who constantly spread their false, ill conceived opinions of “success” which reprogram and “overwrite” our original evolutionary state of happiness. He learned that setting the right expectations and perceptions for living a simple, down to earth, sustainable lifestyle can restore happiness.?
