How People Might Use UBHappy2

The following are hypothetical examples illustrating potential use cases. These are not testimonials from actual users but scenarios showing how UBHappy2 could be applied:

Hypothetical Example

The Daily Draw

Sarah might print the full 158-page card deck and keep it on her desk. Each morning, she could shuffle through the cards, select one module that resonates with her current situation, flip to the back, and choose one quote to carry throughout the day. She might write in the margins about how that quote applies to specific challenges she's facing.

Hypothetical Example

The Strategy Approach

James might work through Lyubomirsky's 12 strategies systematically. He could focus on one strategy per month (e.g., "Cultivating Optimism" in January), pulling out only the relevant theme and module cards. He'd work through those 6 modules over 4 weeks, writing reflections on each card, then print fresh copies before moving to the next strategy.

Hypothetical Example

The Book Reader

Maria might prefer the ebook format, reading through it on her tablet during her morning coffee. She could use the clickable table of contents to jump to specific modules that speak to her current life situations. The book format lets her read several modules in sequence, seeing how they build on each other within each strategy.

Hypothetical Example

The Group Practice

A book club might each purchase and print their own card decks. At meetings, they could choose one module together, each person sharing which quote resonated most and why. The ability to write notes directly on cards captures insights from these discussions. Each member's cards become uniquely annotated with their personal journey.

Hypothetical Example

The Systematic Approach (Franklin's Method)

Marcus might use Benjamin Franklin's 13-week character development method: select 13 modules that align with his personal growth goals, focus intensely on one module per week for 13 weeks, then repeat the cycle quarterly. He could print fresh card sets for each cycle, comparing notes from cycle to cycle to track his growth. Learn about Franklin's proven method →

Hypothetical Example

The Crisis Support

Lisa, going through a difficult period, might print only the modules most relevant to her current challenges (e.g., Overcome-Adversity, Hope, Have-Peace, Overcome-Fear). She could keep these specific cards with her, rereading quotes throughout the day, writing prayers or affirmations alongside them. When she finds quotes that truly help, she highlights them for quick access.

Note: These examples illustrate possible applications. Your experience will depend on which format you prefer (cards vs. book), how you integrate the practice into your life, and your commitment to reflection and application.

One Proven Application: Franklin's 13-Week Method

While there are many ways to use UBHappy2, one particularly effective approach has 250 years of historical validation: Benjamin Franklin's systematic character development method.

In 1726, Franklin—then a penniless printer—devised a weekly focus system that contributed to his transformation into a Founding Father, scientist, inventor, and diplomat. His method: focus intensely on one character quality per week, cycling through 13 qualities over 13 weeks, repeating four times per year.

How It Could Work with UBHappy2

  1. Select 13 modules from your 58 that resonate with your personal growth goals
  2. Print those 13 cards (26 pages) and arrange them in your chosen order
  3. Week 1: Focus on Card #1. Read all 12-15 quotes. Choose one to carry daily. Write reflections.
  4. Week 2: Move to Card #2. Previous card's lessons stay in background awareness
  5. Continue through all 13 weeks (one quarter)
  6. Print fresh copies and repeat the cycle—four times per year for deep mastery
"On the whole, though I never arrived at the perfection I had been so ambitious of obtaining, but fell far short of it, yet I was, by the endeavour, a better and a happier man than I otherwise should have been if I had not attempted it."
— Benjamin Franklin, on his systematic method

This systematic approach demonstrates that structured practice with inspirational wisdom—whether in 1726 or 2025—can produce measurable character development. Learn more about Franklin's complete method →

The Point: Franklin's success proves that consistent, focused work with wisdom literature creates real transformation. Whether you use his specific 13-week method or develop your own approach, the principle holds: regular engagement with carefully selected wisdom, combined with reflection and application, changes lives. UBHappy2 gives you the curated wisdom; you choose how to apply it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly do I receive when I purchase?
Two PDF files delivered instantly via download: (1) Card Deck PDF (158 pages) with all cards formatted for printing, and (2) Ebook PDF (172 pages) with the same content in flowing book format. Both files are personalized with your full name on every card and page.
How does the personalization work?
When you purchase, you'll provide your full name (first and last). We generate your personalized PDFs within 24-48 hours and send you the download links. Your name appears in the footer of every card, on the ebook cover, dedication page, and throughout both documents—making this truly YOUR collection.
Can I print these on a regular printer?
Yes! The PDFs are designed for standard A4 paper on any home or office printer. We recommend duplex (double-sided) printing for cards so front and back are on the same sheet. Use heavier paper (100-120gsm) if you want more durable cards, or standard 80gsm office paper works fine for notes and repeated printing.
Do I need to print the entire deck at once?
Not at all. Many users print just the intro cards plus the specific modules they're working with. You can print individual pages, specific themes, or the full deck—whatever serves your practice. Since you own the PDFs forever, you can print and reprint whatever you need, whenever you need it.
What's the difference between the card deck and the ebook?
Same wisdom content, different formats. The card deck (158 pages) formats each module as a physical 2-page card with front/back design—perfect for shuffling, drawing randomly, writing notes on, and carrying specific cards with you. The ebook (172 pages) formats everything as a flowing book with cover, dedication, foreword, clickable table of contents, and bonus sections—perfect for reading on devices or printing as a bound book. Both are included with your purchase.
Can I share my PDFs with others?
The PDFs are personalized to you and licensed for your personal use. You can print multiple copies for yourself and print cards for immediate family members living in your household. However, the files themselves should not be shared digitally, as each person's collection is personalized to them. If friends or family want their own personalized collections, they can purchase their own for R497.
What are the "six wisdom traditions" included?
Each module draws quotes from: (1) Universal/Eclectic wisdom (philosophers, poets, thinkers across time), (2) Positive Psychology (contemporary research-backed insights), (3) Stoic philosophy (Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus), (4) Christian scripture and mystics, (5) Buddhist/Mindfulness teachings (Buddha, Thich Nhat Hanh), and (6) other global traditions (Rumi, Confucius, Lao Tzu, etc.). This diversity ensures multiple perspectives on each theme.
Is this based on real research or just feel-good quotes?
Both, intentionally. The structural framework comes from Sonja Lyubomirsky's rigorously researched 12 happiness strategies, demonstrating that ~40% of happiness is controllable through intentional activities. The 58 modules map directly to these evidence-based strategies. The quotes themselves are authentic wisdom from history's greatest thinkers—selected not randomly but specifically to illuminate each research-backed principle. See our scientific foundation page for full details.
How long does it take to work through all 58 modules?
Entirely up to you. Some users might spend a week with each module (58 weeks = just over a year). Others use Franklin's 13-week method, selecting 13 modules and cycling through them quarterly (4 cycles per year = same modules revisited with deepening understanding). Still others dip in as needed, using specific modules for current life situations. There's no required pace—the collection adapts to your rhythm.
What if I want more quotes beyond the 12-15 per module?
The InspireWell4Life website (www.inspirewell4life.com) provides access to 100+ quotes per module—the complete database from which these 12-15 were curated. The website, QuoteKeeper app, and QuietPages journaling tool are all free resources mentioned in the ebook's Resources section. The curated cards give you focused daily practice; the website gives you unlimited exploration.
Are there other products in the InspireWell4Life collection?
Yes! UBHappy2 is one of 36 products in our Aspirational Series—each focused on cultivating specific virtues, capabilities, and ways of being (You Be A Leader, You Be Resilient, You Be A Millionaire, etc.). We're also launching a Life Wisdom Series with 20 Navigate products for situational guidance. All use the same format: personalized cards + ebook, research-based frameworks, diverse wisdom traditions. The ebook includes a complete list in the "Explore Collections" section.
What's your refund policy?
Due to the personalized nature of the PDFs and instant digital delivery, all sales are final. However, if there are any issues with your files (technical problems, printing errors, etc.), contact us immediately and we'll resolve it. We want you to have a perfect experience with your collection.
