Good morning, every one.Today I want to tell you something about Harvard\'s most popular leon------Positive Psychology.Perhaps some of you have already seen it.
The teacher who taught this leon is Dr.Tal Ben-Shahar.He enjoyed high reputation among his Harvard students and he was known as the \"most popular lecturer\" and \"life coach.\"In the happine leons , Ben-Shahar did not talk much about how to achieve great succe, but explained how to be happier, fuller and more enjoyable!So, why do the happine leons so popular in Harvard ? let’s learn something about it.
What exactly is the most important thing for us to pursue in life? Ben-Shahar firmly believed that happine is the only standard to measure life and the final goal of all targets.He argued that happine should be the combination of joy and significance.A happy person must have a clear target which can bring about pleasure and significance, and then strive for it.A truly happy person will enjoy it bit by bit in their own way of life.
Do you know our life also has profits and loes? When we look at our life, we can regard positive feelings as incomes, and negative feelings as expenses.When the positive feelings is more than the negative, it means we have been profitable in our life.In turn,we suffer a lo.
So how can we achieve happine? Dr.Tal Ben-Shahar summarized 10 tips for us.

2.Stay with friends.Don\'t be saddled with daily work.Intimate interpersonal relationship is the signal of your happine.
3.Learn to fail.There is no shortcut to succe.Succeful men in history always dare to take action and of cause, they often fail, too.So don\'t let the fear of failure tripping your steps of try new things.

10.Expre gratitude.Do not take your family members, friends,education, and health for grant? They are all memorable gifts for you.Recording every joyful moment of your life, and maintaining a grateful heart.
