  • Hi Matt here.

  • If you want to continue finding tools to a successful and happy life, I recommend listening to the happiness lab, hosted by Yale professor Doctor Lori Santos.

  • Doctor Santos has studied the science of happiness and has found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will make our lives better.

  • Based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale, she will take you through the latest scientific research and share some surprising stories that will change the way you think about happiness.

  • This season, she's tackling topics that affect her own life, like stress, perfectionism, and boredom.

  • If you struggle with any of those, or if it sounds like you could learn more about increasing happiness in your life, then listen to the happiness lab right here in your podcast player.

  • Oftentimes, the best way to achieve success in our ventures is to go beyond what is typical, to challenge ourselves, to accept disagreement, and to disrupt my name is Matt Abrahams and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
