The Promise of Sustainable Happiness (summary)

The Promise of Sustainable Happiness

Boehm, J. K., & Lyubomirsky, S. (in press). The promise of sustainable happiness. In S. J. Lopez (Ed.), Handbook of positive psychology (2nd ed.). Oxford: Oxford University Press

The article suggests that, despite several barriers withholding people to increase their well-being, less happy people can successfully strive to be happier by learning a variety of effortful strategies and practicing these with determination and commitment. They use the sustainable happiness model (by Lyubomirsky, Sheldon and Schkade, 2005) as theoretical framework. According to the model, three factors contribute to an individual’s happiness level:

  • The set point

  • Life circumstances

  • Intentional activities/effortful acts that are episodic and naturally variable

Jargon

Let's take a while and think about the words we are using. We often use the word: livelihood for income generating activities for poor people.

Let's call it business, let's call it income generating activity, let's call it enterpreneurs. 

There are not so many choices, if you have to stay home to take care of your children, and you don't have education.

One of the main income generating activities, in other words, kind of work, is peeling garlic. This is the garlic being peeled by the people in the slums, the garlic that many people might be eating

Out of the (old) box

In two ways, out of the (old) box, last year, there was a fire in the slums, that happens a lot. 

People are affected, and we did a lot of donation drives, bringing food and clothes.

We realized we can't help everyone, and does it really help, that kind of help? Of course it helps.

In the Philippines, the first 10 days (if I remember correctly) the government helps victims of fire, earth quakes etc etc.

We were thinking how can we really help? We can help people restart their business, so they can earn their own money.

And we did,

5 tips to improve your English every day

Image

In this video, Lucy gives 5 tips that you can use to practice your English every day. Some of them are quite original, so I thought I'd share them!

2) Talk daily with natives: if you are not able to do so in your area, there are several paid and non-paid options online.

3) Set a
