Little Happier: Easy Answers or Hard Truths: Whom Do You Trust?

from Happier with Gretchen Rubin · host Gretchen Rubin / The Onward Project

When we’re trying to make a point, it’s often more effective to tell a story than to deliver a lecture. Example: an episode from the popular TV show “Better Call Saul” memorably illustrates the important truth that we’re probably better off assigning a complex problem to the person who acknowledges the difficulties rather than to the person who offers suspiciously easy answers.
