The Fun Habit | Michael Rucker, Ph.D. | Before the Bestseller 78


Michael Rucker is an organizational psychologist, behavioral scientist, a charter member of the International Positive Psychology Association, and currently serves in the Active Wellness as a Senior Leader who has been academically published in the International Journal of Workplace Health Management and Nutrition Research. His ideas about fun and health have been featured in a variety of publications, including the Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Vox, Psychology Today, Thrive Global, Fast Company, the Telegraph, and many more. 

He is a remarkable behavioral scientist in addition to being a good author. What sets him apart is how, in a never-ending pursuit of happiness, which I have also come across, Mike is the first self-help author to call out in the book that if you have any mental disorder or depression, then, this probably is not the magic fix for you which is one of the first realistic approaches to a self-help book that I’ve actually seen making his book truly stand out. Join us as we explore how these components fit into the fun habit and discover its true essence with Mike Rucker.

Reader,Apparently y’all didn’t hate last week’s rant. I’ve never heard from so many readers in one week – thank you! I loved every response I got.

What AI doesn’t do well (and can’t replace) Stories to teach. Think about a recent memory of yours. Was it something dull and mundane? Or was there something…
