Twice a week, write down three things you’re grateful for, and tell someone why. I know these sound like homilies from your grandmother. Well, your grandmother was smart. The secret of happiness is like the secret of weight loss: It’s not a secret.”

– Daniel Gilbert, “The Science Behind the Smile” Harvard Business Review
