The Happiness Scam: Why You're Chasing What You Already Have
You've been lied to. The self-help industry has turned happiness into its most profitable illusion-selling you books, apps, courses, retreats, and "secrets" that promise lasting joy. And yet, despite billions spent every year, depression and anxiety continue to rise. If the formulas worked, shouldn't we all be glowing by now?
The Happiness Scam rips away the mask. It exposes how "happiness" has been packaged like a product, dangled as a prize, and sold as a permanent jackpot you'll never actually receive. It shows why the harder you chase happiness, the further it slips away-leaving guilt, shame, and exhaustion in its place.
But this book doesn't stop at critique. It offers a bold reframe through Universal Energy Dynamics (UED), a fresh lens that explains joy and sorrow not as mysteries or failures, but as natural ripple consequences of life itself.
Happiness is not rare. It happens daily, in small sparks-laughter, connection, relief. Happiness is not ownable. You can't store it, hoard it, or lock it in. Happiness is not permanent. It fades by design, and that's what makes it real. Sorrow is not failure. It's the other side of the rhythm, the contrast that gives joy its brightness.
This isn't another "five-step program" or morning routine. In fact, it's the opposite. The Happiness Scam dismantles the treadmill of formulas and gives you permission to stop chasing, stop blaming yourself, and start living.
With sharp storytelling, satirical punch, and the clarity of UED, Sandeep Chavan shows you why happiness was never missing, never broken, never hidden in someone else's secret. It was always here-momentary, fleeting, precious.
The simple truth? You've always had happiness. You always will-until silence takes over.
If you're ready to step off the treadmill, expose the scam, and reclaim life as rhythm-not as chase-this book is your invitation.
Stop buying happiness. Start noticing it. The freedom begins here.
