Friday (evening) Freebie: Shawn Achor on Happiness

Right now, my freshmen are reading Gretchen Rubin's book, The Happiness Project, all the while cooking up happiness projects of their own. To supplement this unit, I've been reading a lot on the subject, and one of my favorite resources is Shawn Achor. Even my freshmen found his TED Talk funny; maybe because he has a way of sharing research in a way that sounds more stand-up than science-y.

So, when I find blogs like this one, where he talks about concrete ways to improve our levels of happiness, I just have to share. I mean, easy ways to get happy that don't involve illegal substances? Who can resist?

I hope your weekend is filled with happiness.
