Brilliant . . . crammed with wisdom and insight.' Stephen Fry on Happy

In A Little Happier Derren Brown draws out the essential discoveries from his international bestseller Happy to help you lead your happiest life.

Life is hard, messy and complex. But if we can learn to separate what we can control - our thoughts and actions - from all else beyond our control, we can find a surer footing with which to greet the world and experience our own concept of happiness.

- None of this is real when each of us tells stories about our lives in too tidy narratives that are seldom true and rarely helpful.
- We should be wary of goal setting: long-term goals fixate us on a future that may not happen and we may not wish for when we get there.
- Our partner isn't right for us because no-one is. None of us is born for someone else. But perhaps those areas of frequent conflict are useful indicators of where we might ourselves be insufferable.

A Little Happier's 17 inspiring and reassuring lessons will help you define and find your own happiness. Its lessons challenge us to think differently about the meaning of happiness and how we can over overcome anxiety in a difficult world.

Readers are inspired by A Little Happier:

***** 'A no nonsense guide to seeing and appreciating the world we live in.'
***** 'A brilliant, insightful and clear book. A beautiful accompaniment to Happy.'
***** 'This book will have a big impact on people who suffer with anxiety and depression. A must read.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Tolles Buch

Wer Derren Brown kennt, und einen Lebensratgeber sucht, ohne besondere Motivation, ist hier genau richtig. Derren hat eine besondere Methode Leute zu erreichen, die er auch in seinen Büchern unfassbar gut umsetzt. Ich werde das Buch bestimmt noch 2-3 Mal lesen, und bin dabei die Tips umzusetzen, die mir jetzt schon den Alltag einfacher machen, und mir helfen Dinge besser zu verarbeiten. Klare Empfehlung.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 9, 2021

Derren Brown really does talk a lot of sense.

That's probably all that I need to write. This little book explains Derren's philosophy of life, which is heavily based in Stoicism. Rather than chase often unachievable goals and endless acquisitions, he argues that to live a happier life we need to realise that we cannot control the future. Instead we should accept that which we cannot control and try to manage our judgement of events rather than the events themselves.

If there's one thing we know about Derren Brown it's that he really understands what makes human beings tick. Full of wisdom and insight, I'd recommend this to everyone.

It’s better to read the “Happy”.As this new book has the same teachings but it lacks the enthusiasm,that thought which keeps resounding.A good read to a brief knowledge.
Didn’t match with my expectations from Mr.Brown

5.0 out of 5 stars Kurz und auf den Punkt
Reviewed in Germany on December 28, 2022

Habe die "lange" Version (Happy) nicht gelesen, bin aber von dieser kurzen Version sehr angetan. Für mich ein sehr schöner Zugang zur stoischen Sicht auf die Dinge des Alltags. Ich denke auch für "alte Hasen der Stoa" wird es interessante Gedanken geben - zumindestens war es bei mir so. Dabei geht für mich weniger um die Grundsätze der Philosophie, sondern die Art des Autors diese Gedanken in lebensnahen Bezügen zu interpretieren. Von meiner Seite eine klare Empfehlung.

5.0 out of 5 stars A much more palatable version of the larger Happy book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 2, 2022
Verified Purchase
After trying hard to read an absorb the much bigger book by Derren Brown, Happy, I tried this one. Its a much easier read and seems to touch on mostly the same points in a very easily digested way. I recommend this book to anyone, especially if you're struggling with how dense and difficult (albeit in a great way) the much larger Happy book is.
