desires are enlightenment" teaches that when we pursue our desires real value accrues not just from attaining them but also from the wisdom we gain in the process. Climbing a mountain may fill us with a grand sense of accomplishment, for example, but such a feeling will eventually diminish or even fade away entirely as new challenges in our daily lives continue to confront us.

The problem we face, however,



we’re confused about how to attain it. So in my new book, The Ten Worlds: The New Psychology of Happiness, my co-author, clinical psychologist Ash ElDifrawi, and I offer an entirely new psychological paradigm for attaining happiness,
