Richard Wiseman
“Buy Experiences Not Goods. Want to buy happiness? Then spend your hard-earned cash on experiences. Go out for a meal. Go to a concert, cinema or theatre. Go on holiday. Go and learn how to pole dance. Go paintballing. Go bungee jumping. In fact, get involved in anything that provides an opportunity to do things with others, and then tell even more people about it afterwards. When it comes to happiness, remember that it is experiences that represent really good value for money.”
Richard Wiseman, 59 Seconds: Think a Little, Change a Lot

“The results from both studies clearly indicated that in terms of short- and long-term happiness, buying experiences made people feel better than buying products.”
Richard Wiseman, 59 Seconds: Think a Little, Change a Lot

“When trying to write your way to a happier life, expressing gratitude is just the tip of the iceberg.”
Richard Wiseman, 59 Seconds: Think a Little, Change a Lot

Richard Wiseman
“When you gossip about another person, listeners unconsciously associate you with the characteristics you are describing, ultimately leading to those characteristics’ being “transferred” to you. So, say positive and pleasant things about friends and colleagues, and you are seen as a nice person. In contrast, constantly complain about their failings, and people will unconsciously apply the negative traits and incompetence to you.”
Richard Wiseman, 59 Seconds: Think a Little, Change a Lot

Richard Wiseman
“The message is clear – those who do not feel in control of their lives are less successful, and less psychologically and physically healthy, than those who do feel in control.”
Richard Wiseman, 59 Seconds: Think a Little, Change a Lot
