List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?
Recently, I have read several books that were insightful and thought-provoking. Habits of Happy Brain by Loretta Breiuning taught me a great deal about where genuine happiness comes from and challenged many of the problematic assumptions that people and academic disciplines have about how our brain works and its role in happiness. In Journey of a Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman, the protagonist’s experiences serve as an allegory for the common disappointments that we encounter in our pursuit of happiness. Finally, The I-Ching by Brian Walker provides a template for creating fulfillment by leading a meaningful life, rather than endlessly pursuing happiness.
