She realizes that how she feels over the next year will have less to do with the events that occur than her own attitude and perspective. Getting advice at every turn from psychologists, academics, doctors, and philosophers, Kaplan brings readers on a smart and witty journey to discover the value of appreciating what you have. <p/> Relying on both amusing personal experiences and extensive research, Kaplan explores how gratitude can transform every aspect of life, including marriage and friendship, money and ambition, and health and fitness. She learns how appreciating your spouse changes the neurons of your brain and why saying thanks helps CEOs succeed. Through extensive interviews with experts, and lively conversations with real people, including celebrities like Matt Damon, Daniel Craig, and Jerry Seinfeld, Kaplan discovers the role of gratitude in everything from our sense of fulfillment to our children's happiness. <p/> With warmth, humor, and appealing insight, Kaplan's journey will empower readers to think positively and start living their own best year ever.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise fo<b>r </b><i>The Gratitude Diaries</i></b> <p/>"Uplifting and entertaining, this book is sure to give readers a more positive perspective."--<i>Booklist</i> <p/>"If you liked Sheryl Sanberg's <i>Lean In . . . </i>read Janice Kaplan's <i>The Gratitude Diaries</i>."--<i>TIME<br></i><br>"Kaplan's plan to be more grateful is approachable for anyone.
