Sonja Lyubomirsky Quotes

“Every day you have to renew your commitment. Some of the strategies should become habitual over time and not a huge effort.”

“Find a happy person, and you will find a project.”

“It is equally important to investigate wellness as it is to study misery.”

“No one in our society needs to be told that exercise is good for us. Whether you are overweight or have a chronic illness or are a slim couch potato, you've probably heard or read this dictum countless times throughout your life. But has anyone told you-indeed, guaranteed you-that regular physical activity will make you happier? I swear by it.”

“Women’s magazines will often ask me things like, 'All right, I need six five-minute happiness strategies.' And I say, well, there aren’t any five-minute happiness strategies. This is something you have to do kind of every day for the rest of your life. Just like if you want to raise moral children or if you want to advance in your career. It’s a goal you pursue your whole life.”
