But you got to get you know as as Sean AER would put it in The Happiness Advantage you have to lower the activation energy required and that can apply for dating too.
The best things said about it
And I found that idea in a book called The Happiness Advantage I want to say it is and I hadn't thought about you know doing that prior because it was sort of when I was reading the Happiness Advantage I was thinking about it for myself.
Why people recommend it
The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor explores how positive psychology drives success, productivity, and personal fulfillment in everyday life. On the Modern Wisdom podcast, Matthew Hussey brought up Shawn Achor's book while discussing relational dynamics and romantic pursuits. He argued that individuals must lower the activation energy required to take action, noting that this psychological principle applies just as effectively to modern dating as it does to professional or personal habits. Similarly, on the ChooseFI podcast episode 403, Taylor Rieckens discussed encountering a transformative exercise within the pages of the same book. She explained that she found the idea for the ten-things-that-make-you-happy exercise while reading The Happiness Advantage, noting that she had not previously thought about implementing such a practice before reading about it for her own personal development. Across both podcasts, speakers highlighted how the concepts in the book offer practical frameworks for altering daily behavior, enhancing personal joy, and reducing the friction involved in making positive life adjustments, whether in romance or self-care routines.
