Marci Shimoff, one of the most successful self-help book authors for women, is the author of "Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul", "Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul", "Happy for No Reason", and is a contributing author of the highly successful book, "The Secret".

Books aren't the only way Marci has made a name for herself. She has been on more than 500 radio and television shows, has been interviewed for more than 100 newspapers, and she has written articles for popular magazines like "Ladies' Home Journal" and "Woman's World".

So interested is Marci Shimoff in the development and motivation of others that she helped found the Transformational Leadership Council, on which she also serves as a board member. The council helps over 10 million people in the world of self-development.

Marci first realized back in the 1970's that she wanted to be a professional speaker. The 1970's was a time before public speaking became a popular career choice. Many people had never heard of such a thing. That didn't stop Marci, though. It was her father who encouraged her to "just be happy."

Marci Shimoff will be the first to tell you that success and happiness aren't the same thing. Think about all of the wildly successful people throughout the world who have billions of dollars but never seem to be happy. Past success doesn't make for a current fulfillment. Success isn't what makes them happy.

Take a look around you. I bet you'll notice newspaper reports, magazine headlines, and television news stories about rich people who are using their money to help others. Most of them probably have lots of "things" like fancy cars, but things don't make people happy. Things can be lost, stolen, or destroyed. Love is passed on through all generations.

The "Forbes Wealthiest People in America" list says that wealthy people are 40% less happy than average Americans. Does that statistic surprise you? Marci wrote "Happy for No Reason" to help people see the bigger pictures. Money isn't the answer just as success isn't the answer.

What about the old line, "I'll be happy when..."? When what? When I lose 10 pounds? When I get a better job? "I'll be happy when..." isn't the answer to happiness. Happiness comes from within, so people who are looking around them for something to make them happy will never really be happy. Only those who are content with the here and now will be happy.
