The Five Paths to Happiness: The Keys to Living a Happy Life According to Your Personality Kindle Edition
How can you find happiness in your life? How to be happy? We all want to live a happy life. But most of the time we look for happiness in the wrong place or take the wrong approach to it. There is really not a "one-size-fits-all" happiness recipe that works for everybody. We are all different. What makes someone live happy may not be the ideal for another person. This is why this book offers you five different paths to happiness.
Why five paths? Because according to modern psychology, most people can be fitted into five categories. Because, according to ancient Eastern wisdom, there are five elements that govern the universe. Because the holistic systems that are used for healing, like Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, are based on the interaction of five elements in the human body, mind and emotions.
The five alternative paths presented to you as happiness hacks in this book come from a methodical observation of how the five elements that rule the universe can be translated into practical knowledge and choices to become happy in our daily lives. Interestingly, these five elements also correspond to the five main characters or personality types of people. They all have different traits and different potentials that rightly understood give you the key to living your life according to your own constitutional emotional structure.
Do you want the five elements of effective thinking and feeling, the five personality types and the five paths to happiness explained in easy terms? This book does that for you, combining psychology and counseling with ancient wisdom in a practical way. It is an easy reading self-help book that fosters your personal development, your happiness habits and your happy living.
The final chapter on how to increase your happiness dispels the myths that surround the achievement of happiness in our modern society and analyzes the true essence of an authentic happiness. It offers a sound alternative to the "rat race" in which many people are trapped and a happiness mindset for financial freedom and for living happiness everyday.
Happiness is a choice. By knowing the five paths and understanding the true essence of happiness, people have a choice. You can be happier and live a happier life. This book shows you how.

Review
"In a world where more people than ever are suffering from depression, anxiety, stress and even simply the negative effects of our modern age, we could all use a little extra happiness. But getting there can be a struggle.
"In many cases, people are able to achieve a certain level of happiness, providing they're willing to make a change in their life that can lead to a better outlook. If you're ready to give the idea a try but you're not sure where to start, what to change or how to start your path to happiness, this book can help.
"Using Eastern wisdom and holistic approaches such as Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, Javier Ramon Brito has outlined five paths, playfully described as 'happiness hacks'. They are designed to fit the personalities and lifestyles of different kinds of people, so you should be able to find one that helps you understand your life as it stands.
"By the end of the book, you'll start to use a more informed approach to your happiness, taking all relevant factors into account, leaving you with a mindset that's focused on happiness.
"With these tips, you can live a happier lifestyle and even achieve financial freedom should you apply your new found way of thinking to your work and financial life too. If you feel like you wish you were happier, give this a try. You've got nothing to lose!" ~ Goodreads user Kate Williams (October 2016)

The Five Paths to Happiness: The Keys to Living a Happy Life According to Your Personality Unlike other self-help books which usually put forward a single universal solution, this one presents five ways, adding a layer of complexity to the approach. The author combines different disciplines and thought systems based on a common denominator (the number five) to outline his personal system. From psychology he takes the character structures, the five elements that govern everything (ether, air, fire, water, earth) from Eastern philosophy, also studying the interaction of these elements with the human body from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.
The five paths to happiness are outlined for each of the five types of people identified by the author: Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth. There is a chapter dedicated to each of them presenting a basic description of their personality, also touching on their strengths and weaknesses, pinpointing ideal career paths, warning against challenges and offering solutions for them. As a bonus, Brito also specifies an appropriate diet, mentioning the foods that benefit and the ones that might bring harm to a certain type.
All in all, if you enjoy reading self-help books, The Five Paths to Happiness by Javier Ramon Brito will not disappoint you. It is easy to read and you can casually finish it in one sitting. Although the number of pages is not many, there are quite a few ideas brought up, inviting the reader to reflect and also conduct some additional research.
