The author also gives readers the tools to create their own happiness, and it is clear that in his view, he believes his tools will work for anyone, no matter what type of situation they face. He shows that in the story of the family who lost their young son, and then bonded afterward, as they never had before.
The author's views are difficult to disagree with. While sometimes he sounds overly optimistic, he shows that his practices work, even in the most debilitating situations. It is hard to argue with that. It is also hard to argue with the idea of happiness. Just about everyone wants to be happy, and the author gives them the tools to find their own happiness. It is really hard to disagree with that, no matter how you view the author and his ideas. He might seem overly positive to some, but it is clear he believes in his views and they have helped many others, so who can really argue with choosing happiness?
