The principles of positive psychology can contribute significantly to our well-being. By approaching our lives from the perspective of strengths, best practices on thriving and personal effectiveness, we can achieve increased ease and flexibility in order to deal with whatever tasks we face. Positive psychology also gives us answers how to confront and address the biggest impediments to productivity (prioritizing, excessive focus, and procrastination), and suggests how to make work flow and more enjoyable.
Positive Psychology
In this course we bring to bear best practices of positive psychology to show how to be happier and increase well-being. This includes building on strengths, building a positive mindset, attitude priming, developing habits that increase motivation, and techniques for countering some destructive workplace behaviors. Whether we seek balance in terms of work-life, or among the core responsibilities of our professional lives, or seek help connecting the big picture with the small, positive psychology can make a significant difference.
