To Be You

Your scientific guide to happiness and success

Dr. Sherif's most widely read book. It takes what psychology actually knows about happiness, motivation and success, and turns it into something a reader can use on an ordinary Tuesday — without slogans, and without pretending the science is tidier than it is.
  • First published 2011, still in print
  • Cairo Book Fair bestseller
  • Arabic, with an English ebook edition
  • What psychology can actually show about happiness
  • Motivation that survives a bad week
  • Comparison, and the quiet damage it does
  • Building a life you do not need a holiday from
Most of what people are told about success is either untestable or untrue. This book starts from the research instead: what raises wellbeing, what only looks like it does, and what happens when you build a life around the difference. It is written the way Dr. Sherif teaches — an idea, the evidence behind it, and then the small change it asks of you.
