Resisting Happiness By Matthew Kelly

… Introduction 

The Introduction of Resisting Happiness by Matthew Kelly sets the tone for the entire book. In it, Kelly shares a personal story that illustrates the core message: we often resist the very things that will make us happy. He confesses that despite being a successful author and speaker, he struggles with the same resistance as everyone else—skipping prayer, avoiding exercise, procrastinating, and ignoring things that would ultimately make his life better.

He introduces the concept of “resistance” as a universal enemy—an internal force that tries to sabotage our efforts to grow, be happy, and become the best version of ourselves. Kelly explains that the book will explore how to recognize resistance, understand it, and overcome it.

The Introduction invites readers to be honest with themselves about what’s holding them back and assures them that they are not alone in their struggles. It’s both motivating and comforting, encouraging the reader to take small, daily steps toward a more joyful and purpose-filled life.
