I normally prefer speculative fiction. but right now I'm reading a self-help kinda book called Resisting Happiness, by Matthew Kelly. Our church was giving them away for free so I couldn't resist.

What is resistance? It's that sluggish feeling of not wanting to do something that you know is good for you. It's the inclination to do something that you unabashedly know is not good for you. It's the desire and tendency to delay something you should be doing right now.

It is resistance that stands between you and happiness. In these pages you will learn not only what it is, but how to recognize and conquer it in your own life.

Matthew Kelly is a Catholic motivational speaker and author. He doesn't shy away from the God issue, which I like very much. I'm only halfway through, but so far it gives practical advice and doesn't feel preachy.
