The Thank-You Project: Cultivating Happiness One Letter of Gratitude at a Time

THE THANK-YOU PROJECT chronicles the wonders that happened when Nancy Davis Kho embarked on her Thank-You Letter Writing Project -- writing letters to key people in her life, over the course of a year. She also provides practical guidance for readers inspired to start a letter-writing project of their own.

Who helped you become the person you are today? As Nancy Davis Kho approached a milestone birthday, she decided to answer that question by sending thank-you letters to the many people who had influenced her, helped her, and inspired her over the years: family, friends, mentors, teachers, co-workers, even a couple of former friends and exes. While her recipients always seemed genuinely pleased to read the letters, what Nancy never expected was the profound and positive effect the process would have on her. As it turns out, emerging research proves that actively appreciating the formative people in your life, past and present, can lead to a lasting increase in your happiness levels - and THE THANK-YOU PROJECT offers a charming, entertaining roadmap to see, say and saviour your way there.
