'You, me and everyone else who has ever lived, or will ever live, is going to die.'

The Stoics knew that tempus fugit ('time flies'). Rather than see this as a bummer, however, they knew that our ever-ticking personal doomsday clocks were actually a brilliant reminder to embrace every second of our lives.

Never forget that you are going to die, and make the most of the short time you have left.

In his insightful, warm and witty book, Ben Pronk reveals the philosophy, science and secrets of true happiness. From exploring the wisdom of Stoicism, Hedonism and other schools of philosophy, to unpacking the details of neuroscience and psychology - all the while throwing in a healthy dose of tough love - Pronk offers enlightenment on what happiness is, how it works and how you can get more of it.

Let's make you happy. There's no time to waste.

'We may well be going to die, but this is a bloody good manual to live well before it happens! I love Ben's ability to distill centuries of wisdom into a book you can read in much less time than that.' - HAMISH BLAKE
