The tl;dr of this book is a set of strategies to get 1% “better” each day.

Yeah, you can keep that. I'm focused on getting 1% happier each day.

Yeah. I've personally been on a mission to throw 'bad', 'worse', 'good', 'better', and words to those effects out the window. They're meaningless and lazy at best. They need to be defined in every context, so it's easier to just skip to saying the definition.

At worst, they sound incredibly judgmental, presumptive, or pushy. It irks me to no end when others try to decide what good is on my behalf.
