In the new, expanded edition there is a foreword and a chapter in which psychologist Mikhail Labkovsky thoroughly breaks down each rule, discusses nuances, and explains the methodology so that applying it becomes easier. So that life becomes easier, clearer—and above all—happier.
Mikhail Labkovsky is absolutely sure that a person can and has the right to be happy and to do only what they want. His book is about how to understand yourself, find harmony, and learn to enjoy life.
The author asks why people don’t get joy and pleasure from life: where do our conscious and unconscious worries and fears come from, why don’t we know how to listen to ourselves, and how we can’t build relationships with other people?
A distinctive feature of Labkovsky’s approach is concreteness. No matter how difficult the question is, he always gives an extremely clear answer. His statements and advice are so radical that many people first have to experience surprise—or even shock. In his recommendations, the author doesn’t hide behind vague wording: he clearly names the causes of problems. And, most importantly, he knows how to solve the problem—without digging into childhood psychological traumas and without scrutinizing your past. If a person has the knowledge and desire, it is entirely possible to change themselves and their life for the better. The goal of this edition is the personal happiness of everyone who reads it.
