Happiness is our natural state, for each of us and for humanity as a whole.
John Izzo argues that five modes of thinking are the "thieves" that rob us of the happiness we are naturally predisposed to: the thieves of Control, Consumption, Elevation, Convenience, and Envy.

The author became aware of their existence as he searched for the true source of happiness in the Andes of Peru, studying spiritual and religious traditions from around the world and drawing from psychological research.

In this inspired book, we see how these "thieves" disguise themselves, what methods they use to infiltrate our hearts, and how we can free ourselves from them. At the same time, it is proven that these same thieves of personal happiness simultaneously destroy society.

A thought-provoking read that will help us discover and defend happiness, which is our natural destination, while creating a world that we all want to live in.
