It’s a happiness extravaganza! Over the past several months, I’ve been working with a brilliant team to create imaginative, useful tools for living happier, healthier, more productive, and more creative lives.
One of my “Secrets of Adulthood” is “Beautiful tools make work a joy,” and we put a lot of work into making these tools helpful and also beautiful.

The Moment of Happiness Calendar
For my whole life, I’ve collected memorable quotations on the subjects of happiness and human nature from authors, artists, and great minds. In this page-a-day calendar, I share my favorites. Every day, you’ll find a brief observation that’s profound, thought-provoking, or amusing, with room to add your own notes and reminders.
When I was growing up, for Christmas each year, I received a Word-a-Day calendar and my father received a Far Side Page-a-Day calendar with Gary Larson cartoons. Because I have such fond feelings for the page-a-day format, it gives me special delight to combine my love of sharing quotations with my love of the page-a-day.
