We are now going to explore the four key concepts of Dr. Ben-Shahar's statement --- 1) "you", 2) "can", 3) "do", and 4) "happier" --- from a neuropsychological perspective.
1) Who is "you"? According to latest scientific understanding, what we experience as "mind", our Frontal Lobesawareness, emerges from the physical brain. So, if we want to refine our minds, we better start by understanding and training our brains. "

6 Rules for Dealing With Habits vs. Tasks |
" f you’ve been working on a simplified to-do list, you may have your tasks whittled down to the essential. But what about the daily and weekly things you need to do every day: exercise, cleaning, errands, making a to-do list … as those are things you need to do, do they go on your to-do list? How do you deal with habits on your to-do list?"
"The Anatomy of Remembering Habits
So, how do I deal with my own habits? The same way most people do, I suspect. I do them without thinking. That’s what makes them habits. Of course, in order for them to become habits, I have to concentrate on them and be reminded of them."

Scientists Invent 30 Year Continuous Power Laptop Battery |
" Your next laptop could have a continuous power battery that lasts for 30 years without a single recharge thanks to work being funded by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory. The breakthrough betavoltaic power cells are constructed from semiconductors and use radioisotopes as the energy source. As the radioactive material decays it emits beta particles that transform into electric power capable of fueling an electrical device like a laptop for years.
Although betavoltaic batteries sound Nuclear they’re not, they’re neither use fission/fusion or chemical processes to produce energy and so (do not produce any radioactive or hazardous waste). "

Social Intelligence: The New Science of Human Relationships |
"In Social Intelligence, Daniel Goleman explores an emerging new science with startling implications for our interpersonal world. Its most fundamental discovery: we are designed for sociability, constantly engaged in a “neural ballet” that connects us brain to brain with those around us.
Our reactions to others, and theirs to us, have a far-reaching biological impact, sending out cascades of hormones that regulate everything from our hearts to our immune systems, making good relationships act like vitamins—and bad relationships like poisons. We can “catch” other people’s emotions the way we catch a cold, and the consequences of isolation or relentless social stress can be life-shortening."

If motivation is the key to success, what is the key to motivation? |
" Motivation is the key to success in fitness. Without motivation, you may find that you are making excuses to yourself. You will find reasons to miss workouts. You will tell yourself you didn’t reach your goal due to extenuating circumstances beyond your control. You will start to convince yourself that perhaps exercise is futile because the possibility of actually achieving your goals is remote and unlikely. These self defeating behaviors will cause you to fail. So how do you avoid falling into these subjugating practices? "

Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life: Living the Wisdom of the Tao |
"Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence. The classic text of these 81 verses, called the Tao Te Ching or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good. In this book, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer has reviewed hundreds of translations of the Tao Te Ching and has written 81 distinct essays on how to apply the ancient wisdom of Lao-tzu to today’s modern world. This work contains the entire 81 verses of the Tao, compiled from Wayne’s researching of 12 of the most well-respected translations of text that have survived for more than 25 centuries. Each chapter is designed for actually living the Tao or the Great Way today."
