What better book for me to read today, the first day of a new year, a new decade?

This book really got the wheels turning in my head. I liked Gretchen's writing style and how she took you into her journey to discover what makes her happy. After reading this, it motivated me to write my own list for my "Happiness Project". I loved doing it and found a lot of insights into what really brings me the greatest joy! Don't miss reading this one.

I did enjoyed reading the book but to copy rubin's project and make it my own simply took lots of time and courage and adjustment. Anyway, this book is nice and always reminds me how good de-cluttering feels :)
