Happiness and positive psychology

We've all heard the saying that "happiness breeds success" but how can you create happiness in order to be successful? According to Dr Martin Seligman in the US and Professor Tim Sharp (aka Dr Happy) there is a science to happiness.

Happiness is something that means different things to different people. Overall it seems that happiness is influenced by the way we choose to think about ourselves, our place in the world, and the world around us and how we act in that world, that differentiates the happy people from the less happy people.

Happiness is something that you have control over and that you can work on in your daily life as well as the lives of your students.
