Nicholas Kraft - How to be happy and keep moving forward

How Are You Thinking About? with Igor

On the podcast today is Nicholas Kraft, who Produced and Edited the fantastic documentary Pursuing Happiness, and is currently employee #1 and Director of Audience Development at the List app, a social network built around the creating and sharing of lists, and co-founded by BJ Novak. I had the privilege of watching Pursuing Happiness, where their goal was to find the happiest people in America, and oh man I liked it so much. Among many things, it made me realize that I need to step it up and actively care more for the people around me. Being nice is one thing, but I can stand to do more to make life easier for other people. And I have played around with the List app, and I like that, too. It’s amazing how poignant or interesting or informative a simple list can be. Plus John Mayer and Lena Dunham use it all the time. Download it in the app store if you don’t have it yet.

If you’re interested in seeing the doc, head over to PursuingHappiness.com, where you can see the trailer now, and though it won’t be available on demand for a couple months, there’s a contact page, and if you give them a shout and say you heard Nicky K on How Are you Thinking About, I don’t know, no promises, but you may find yourself watching the movie sooner than you think.
