Paul was the best host and motivational speaker I have ever seen – no joke! The knowledge he has of our direct industry was apparent and the fact that he could sympathize with the devastation around us as a result of the wildfires was heartwarming.

The Science of Happiness: Becoming a Rational Optimist

We all have a different baseline day to day level of happiness, but wherever you’re at, wouldn’t you like to be a little happier? Unfortunately being happy isn’t always simple, and for some people it may be more difficult than others. A positive mindset is key to resilience and navigating adversity, but nothing gets an eye-roll quicker than telling an overwhelmed colleague to just “cheer up” or “think positive.” Our brains are hardwired to seek happiness, yet we’re not great at predicting what will sustain it. In this talk, we’ll look at evidence from positive psychology, cognitive behavioral techniques, and neuroscience, you can use to create habits that will help you boost and maintain your overall level of happiness.

Objectives:

  • Understand what optimism is and what it is not
  • Identify happiness habits that enhance overall well-being
  • Learn the three levers of happiness and how to structure your day around them
  • Learn simple and realistic techniques for reframing your own negative thoughts and responding to negativity from others
