Mo Gawdat: How To Programme Your Brain For Happiness

Lobster Brain

Mo Gawdat was the Chief Business Officer for Google X, the innovation lab that works on robots and self-driving cars.

After the tragic death of his son, Ali, Mo now dedicates himself to his mission of helping one billion people learn how to be happy.

His international bestseller “Solve for Happy” introduces you to the idea that there is a happiness equation that you can follow, to help you find greater happiness.

In this wide ranging and inspiring conversation, Mo tells Danny Donachie and Lisa Morton how his son inspired him to take a different path, away from a role you might traditionally associate with a ‘top lobster’. Mo discusses the fact that we currently know more about using our mobile phones, than about using their own brains. He also has some advice on why we’re wired to think negatively and what you can do about that, to achieve happiness.
