'Everything he writes is an enlightening education in how to be
human.' - Elizabeth Day That Little Voice in Your Head is the
practical guide to retraining your brain for optimal joy by Mo
Gawdat, the internationally bestselling author of Solve for Happy.
Mo reveals how by beating negative self-talk, we can change our
thought processes, turning our greed into generosity, our apathy
into compassion and investing in our own happiness. To fix a
machine, first you need to find out what’s wrong with it. To fix
unhappiness, you need to find out what causes it. This book
provides readers with exercises to help reshape their mental
processes. Drawing on his expertise in programming and his
knowledge of neuroscience, Mo explains how – despite their
incredible complexity – our brains behave in ways that are
largely predictable. From these insights, he delivers this user
manual for happiness. Inspired by the life of his late son, Ali, Mo
Gawdat has set out to share a model for happiness based on
generosity and empathy towards ourselves and others. Using his
experience as a former Google engineer and Chief Business Officer,
Mo shares his 'code' for reprogramming our brain and moving away
from the misconceptions modern life gives us.
