Gretchen Rubin has written several New York Times bestsellers, which have sold millions of copies, including The Happiness Project and Happier at Home. She also hosts the podcast Happier with Gretchen Rubin. She is out with a new book Outer Order, Inner Calm — a playbook that helps readers discover ways to make more room for happiness in their lives.
Marie Kondo also talks about organizing your outer surroundings. She asks, “Does this bring you joy?”
I agree with simplicity and order. It is calming. But are we bordering on a national obsession?
Ancient literature amazes me that 3,000 years ago, or even further back in time, humans were already thinking of these things. But often with deeper meeting.
I searched the proverbs. Wisdom says that happiness and joy follow from living the right life. “Those who seek justice will find joy”. Often you read, happiness comes to those who practice the words of Wisdom.
