Are You Ready to Be Emotionally Free?
Are You Ready To Find Peace and True Happiness?

Bestselling author Kirk Wilkinson will personally take you through eight powerful lessons from his book The Happiness Factor: How to Be Happy No Matter What. In this transformative, life-changing seminar, you’ll learn the skills to increase satisfaction, to handle stress, drama and trauma more effectively, to learn how to overcome adversity, and to be the hero of your own story.

Even if you’ve experienced hardship as a result of the shaky economy, even if you’re personally struggling for any reason, you can be happy, no matter what!

"No matter what challenges you are facing - in your relationships, career, business or life –The Happiness Factor is bound to help you live a more rewarding, joyful and happy life."

- Margie Warrell, coach, speaker and author of "Find Your Courage!
Unleash Your Full Potential and Live the Life You Really Want"

Happiness is key to your success.

Happy people are more successful, wealthier, healthier, and have better and stronger relationships.

Happy people close more deals.

Happy people have stronger support networks.

Happy people, in short, live longer, better lives.

How long will you wait and what will have to happen before you decide you deserve happiness?

Stop waiting around and start learning the skills you need to become truly happy – not just when things in your life are going your way, but any time, no matter what!

Here’s what you’ll experience in this once-in-a-lifetime seminar opportunity:

Kirk will take you through a powerful “personal happiness assessment” so you can begin to uncover the secrets to happiness within. Knowing where you are is one of the most valuable components to initiating your transformation. You’ll also discover how to cultivate optimism as a key to happiness.

You will also examine gratitude. Kirk will show you why gratitude is a requisite element to happiness and teach you key strategies for expressing gratitude in your life. You’ll begin to practice gratitude during the seminar.

Next, you will look within to examine your mindset and learn to deal with stress and hardship.

Kirk will expose the hidden dangers of social comparisons and show you how to stop comparisons in their tracks. You’ll learn tricks to stop overthinking and other negative mental behaviors that are themselves barriers to your happiness, and strategies for transforming your mindset into the positive. You’ll also learn brand new tips to savoring life’s great experiences and the crucial principle of “emotional generosity.”

Then, Kirk will cover one of the most potent concepts in The Happiness Factor: coping skills for dealing with stress, hardships, and trauma. You’ll examine problem-focused versus emotion-focused coping skills, learn the power of acceptance, and develop the vital skill Kirk calls “underreact.” Kirk will show you how to find meaning in adversity and teach you how to “expect the best and accept the rest.”

As part of this amazing seminar Kirk leads you in the conversion from victim to hero. You’ll learn why the past is your greatest teacher and what you can learn that will revolutionize the way you tell stories to yourself and others. You’ll learn exactly how to let the past go and quickly recover from hurtful or stressful situations.

Plus, Kirk will uncover the miracles of forgiving. He’ll show you why forgiveness is a vital component to being happy, but more importantly, how to forgive yourself and others. You’ll start forgiving yourself and the people in your life before you leave the room!

In a powerful conclusion Kirk will show you how to become your Best Self. Kirk will reveal how to create and describe your best self, creating a new mental picture and making it a reality. This is a unique and profound moment in your transformation, something you can’t learn from anyone but the creator of The Happiness Factor himself.

Kirk will help you put everything together to create complete, true, lasting, and deep happiness. He’ll also address the important topic of religion and spirituality, and the role they play in happiness, as well as several other key strategies that really work to help build your happiness.
