“The Secrets of Happiness” is the title of the most recent book that I\u2019ve finished reading. I don\u00b4t think it\u2019s going to win any literature prices, but it was just fun and enjoyable to read. A typical easy-going girls-book, not overly sophisticated, not demanding, just a little nice story, a true happy maker. I love these kinds of books, especially when my head and heart need a break.<\/p>

As I often feel like I should be more effective with my time, I generally like to see a purpose for the stuff that I do. For example, I like reading, and to make this a useful activity, I want to read renowned books in the hope that they will affect my writing in a positive way. With those girls-books though, it`s pleasure only. Single purpose: Enjoy and let go.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

It feels good to loosen up at times. To do stuff with no ambition. The same goes for Photography or Fashion. To use the phone with a fun retro photo app instead of the camera, to experiment, not worrying about the outcome or the need of getting something good. To wear the old jumper in the Cocktail-Bar, or the new blouse at home, however, you feel like it. Just for personal happiness and joy.<\/p>

Here are a few books that I liked for that matter: The Secrets of Happiness by Lucy Diamond<\/a>,\u00a0The Day we meet again by Miranda Dickinson<\/a> ,\u00a0The one plus one by Jojo Moyes<\/a> , The Horse Dancer by Jojo Moyes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Die Geheimnisse des Gl\u00fccks<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

“The Secrets of Happiness” (Die Geheimnisse des Gl\u00fccks) ist der Titel des Buchs, das ich zuletzt fertiggelesen habe. Ich denke nicht, dass es irgendwelche Literatur-Preise gewinnen wird, aber es hat Spa\u00df gemacht und war einfach ein Genuss zum Lesen. Ein typisches Frauenbuch, nicht anspruchsvoll oder schwer zu lesen, einfach eine h\u00fcbsche, kleine Geschichte, ein echter Gl\u00fccklich-Macher. Ich mag diese Art von B\u00fcchern, vor allem wenn mein Kopf und mein Herz eine Pause brauchen.<\/p>

Weil ich oft denke, ich sollte meine Zeit effektiver einsetzen, mag ich n\u00fctzliche Nebeneffekte von T\u00e4tigkeiten. Zum Beispiel mag ich es zu lesen. Um daraus eine n\u00fctzliche Besch\u00e4ftigung zu machen, will ich gerne bekannte und angesehene B\u00fccher lesen, in der Hoffnung, dass die sich positiv auf meinen Schreibstil auswirken. Diese Frauenromane sind dagegen nur zum Vergn\u00fcgen da, einziger Sinn: Genie\u00dfen und Loslassen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Es ist gut, sich \u00f6fter mal locker zu machen. Auch in der Fotografie oder der Mode. Sachen ohne Ehrgeiz machen. Das Handy mit der Retro-Foto-App anstatt der Kamera nehmen, experimentieren und nicht an das Ergebnis denken oder, dass etwas Gutes dabei herauskommen soll. Das alte Sweatshirt in der Cocktailbar tragen oder die neue Bluse zu Hause, je nach Lust und Laune. Einfach f\u00fcr pers\u00f6nliche Fr\u00f6hlichkeit und Gl\u00fccksgef\u00fchl.<\/p>

Hier sind ein paar B\u00fccher die ich in dem Zusammenhang mochte: The Secrets of Happiness by Lucy Diamond<\/a>,\u00a0The Day we meet again by Miranda Dickinson<\/a> ,\u00a0The one plus one by Jojo Moyes<\/a> , The Horse Dancer by Jojo Moyes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
