This is a good companion book with Switch by Chip and Dan Heath. The Happiness Advantage takes a fascinating look at the psychology and scientific research into all of the old advice of motivational speakers and sages.

Success in life doesn't lead to happiness. Rather, happiness leads to success. Hapiness is important for our physical, and emotional health. Relationships help increase our hapiness quotient and lack of human contact is directly correlated to our perception of hapiness and our blood pressure.

A great read.
