​Imagine there exists a ‘fitting room’ for ideas and opinions – a secluded space with large, full-length mirrors where you can hold up a particular view on life and explore it from multiple angles. Imagine the sheer joy of discovering a perspective you may not have considered before. ‘A Little Wiser, A little Happier’ symbolises a fitting room that offers you the opportunity to try on a range of outlooks and interpretations on everyday life and its little annoyances. Packed with short and insightful reflections, it helps you see old nagging problems from a fresh angle. Why loving your job isn’t compulsory. Should infidelity be a deal-breaker? You don’t ‘owe’ most people an explanation for your choices. Are we leaving behind a legacy of fear? These are just some of the topics in a long list you’ll get to mull over.

Through this collection of thoughtful and thought-provoking essays, Nim Gholkar helps you discover that wisdom is not always about big ‘aha’ moments. It’s often about tiny, barely perceptible, shifts in perspective.
