I completely agree with this because life is definitely not always going to be how you want it to be. For instance, when you are going through life and it consists of turns and loops but it will always lead back into a positive point through time. When you’re on this so-called “rollercoaster” it is yourself that decides how thrilling or frightening your life is going to be. An example would be Michael Jordan in high school. During Michael Jordan’s sophomore year in high school he got kicked out the basketball team. This would unfortunately be a “down” for him on his “life rollercoaster”. But little did that coach know he became the best basketball player and athlete on the planet. So while Michael was going “up” on his rollercoaster, I know for sure that the coach definitely regretted his decision from cutting him from the team. This type of motivation should inspire the world to do great things and be the best that they can even though someone is telling you that you can’t do it. In other words never give up on what you love doing. Overall everybody has there ups and downs throughout life and when you are in the down part of life just know that there will be loop that will put you back up top of the…

Schools are in great need of systems, processes, and personnel who are able to support the needs of students with problem behavior. Research indicates, however, that (while I am a big, fat cheater) information has not been made available to teachers and other professionals in a format that allows these strategies to become common practice. Many teachers choose isolated behavioral strategies that are not applied immediately after the problem behavior has occurred.…

The effect on children and young people of having positive relationships during periods of transition as it is important for children to have positive relationships during this time, as they will need to feel unsure in other areas of their lives. They may need to talk to someone about how they are feeling and you should make sure that there are opportunities for them to do this. If you have advance notice that a child or group of children will be going through a period of change, this will give you an opportunity to plan how you will support them. All children are different so they may need a variation of support, some may not need any at all.…

The area of interest that was studied was Positive Psychology and Social Relationships. Dr. Barbara L. Fredrickson’s professional experience covered the two areas of psychology listed above, that intrigued our group’s interest and future professional endeavors. The study of Positive Psychology and Social Relationships is a discipline that explores emotional well-being through emotions and experiences that help individuals thrive and live meaningful lives. This is the personal mission and philosophy that drives our interest in our desired future professions. Most human beings are looking to improve their lives and want to live their best selves in all areas of life, from work, love, friendships, etc. Iantha and Rayniqua’s career goals, although…
What the researchers mean by ‘subjective well-being’ is that it takes a broad view of happiness, beyond the pursuit of short-term of physical pleasures defining a narrow hedonism. It is also define as life satisfaction, the presence of positive affect, and a relative absence of negative affect. ‘Subjective well-being’ is measured by hedonic well-being where it’s proposed that an individual experiences happiness when positive affect and satisfaction with life are both high.…
This chapter went more into depth of the material. It was actually interesting to read about the theories. Biological, Multicultural, Traits, Positive Psychology, and Internet Use. One Section that i myself enjoyed learning about was traits, or the "Big 5 Super Traits". Yes there is still some criticism on this, but it was interesting how narrowed down it could be. The 5 traits consisted of: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. It's fascinating how we know so much, yet we are also still unaware of many things. New technology and more importantly time, will surely tell if we are able to understand everything. But, How much longer till we know everything? Will we ever know everything? Are the five super traits…
Joy is easy to find in the destination, but it is hard to find in the process. In our daily life, we do things for all different purposes. Some of them are obviously for finding joy and happiness. However, people think joy can only be found when we accomplished something that takes time, process, and efforts to do. Most of those people would never think of that they could actually enjoy the process instead of only enjoy the moment that they reach what they want. For example, we watched the peaceful warrior in the class, the gas station man said, journey brings you happiness, not the destination. This quote suddenly gave me a lot of inspiration for solving the puzzle of why do we work so hard for something, why should we have a goal for our my life, why should we try things that we never did before, why should we push our limit to innovate our daily life, why should we go to work or school everyday, and why we should do this and that, etc. I believe the quote cracked the ultimated problem that the existence of human being in this universe.…
In my high school psychology class we learned that all behaviors are learned, whether positive or negative. I am fortunate enough to have two positive influences in my life; my parents. My parents have helped guide me in establishing right from wrong from merely observing their behavior. No one wants to disappoint their parents so they imitate their behavior in order to avoid getting in trouble. Two summers ago my mother was the manager at the Cascades Falls in Jackson, and I was working as her subordinate. A customer came up and began complaining about the price of the falls, and was using vulgar language while doing so. I personally was infuriated that someone would verbally attack someone for something that was not even their fault (let…
