The Art of the Interesting by Lorraine Besser Book Summary

Ready to live your best possible life? It's time to make it interesting.  

Do you know anyone who's truly living The Good Life? Traditionally, philosophers and psychologists have thought of the Good Life in terms of happiness or meaning, or some combination of both. But, if it’s really that simple, if all you need is more happiness or meaning to get to the Good Life, why aren’t more of us achieving that truly “good” life? You’ve hit all the traditional markers, jumped on the happiness train, committed to a gratitude practice, sought purpose in your work, and yet The Good Life you’re seeking, is still out of reach.
 
     Emerging research is revealing that there is, in fact, more to the good life than the current —and even ancient—conversation suggests. This has been identified as psychological richness. Dr. Lorraine Besser, a founding investigator in these studies, shows how psychological richness helps to make our Good Lives more interesting. Interesting experiences captivate our minds, engage our thoughts and emotions, and often change our perspective.   What’s interesting is different for everyone, and everyone can obtain and strengthen the skills necessary to access the interesting.
 
     In this illuminating book, you’ll take a deeper dive into the ways that you can cultivate the interesting in your everyday life, including:
  How to develop an interesting mindset How to harness the power of novelty How to turn obstacles into adventures  
 
Through delightful stories, powerful tools, and new mindsets, you’ll learn how to “keep it interesting.” Whether you feel like something is missing from your life, or you’re yearning for more, Besser's groundbreaking manifesto will guide you toward a fuller, more satisfying life.
