Book review: H+ plus - Edward De Bono

Need a practical portable pocket guide to creating happiness you can flick through as you move through your day? The book H+ may just be what you’re looking for!

H+ describes a positive action framework for happiness through daily acts of help or contribution. So whether your faith is Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Jewish or Athiestic, this little book helps you match your sense of self-worth with moment to moment achievements, at the same time, fully accepting whatever belief system or religion you follow. You help yourself by helping others.

The first half of the book describes the six qualities central to implementing Happiness Plus - Human (our humanity), Happiness, Humour, Help, Hope and Health.

The second half of the book describes and gives examples of ‘Pons’ - positive real actions to help other people -as the tool for manifesting H+.

Not sure if this title is for you? Check out your local library and browse a copy of the book before buying. If the local library doesn't have a copy, celebrate a ‘pon’ and recommend its purchase to the librarian, knowing that you are instrumental in raising collective awareness of leading a consciously happy life.
