Meaning of Reflection Happiness

        Meaning is more or less like a way, the way on which we are supposed to walk for our whole life. Such a path is provided by social causes, politics, science, religion, and so on. There are times which individuals are unable to find the meaning of their lives, I think they find themselves in an avalanche of nothingness. Purpose, Values, Efficacy, and Self-worth do give a glimpse of meaning. It is sometimes confusing to interpret between meaningful and happiness. After all, both are relevant but meaning is much more than just happiness. As meaning lasts longer than happiness, it is not bound that a meaningful life must be a life full of happiness as well. If I have such resources, I would share it as I am good at sharing and I want to be remembered as a good person doing good things. At the moment, I can morph the wrong beliefs into right ones.

Accomplishment of of Reflection Happiness

            Achieving goals with specific meanings in the quest for mastery and success is accomplishment. According to my perception, people with an accomplishment exhibit more well-being compared to the ones who don’t have such an accomplishment. I wanted to study at a higher level and that is what I am doing at the moment so I have achieved one of my goals while some others like giving a better life to my parents etc. When I knew that I had achieved a goal, there was a sense of satisfaction in me which was quite vibrant. If I know that couldn’t achieve a specific goal of mine, I don’t feel disheartened, I just revise my strategy and stick to the goal. GRIT and Self-Discipline both are important when it comes to long-term goals and ambitions. Having a positive approach towards every goal is very important for both of these elements as they feed on the positive energy.

Happiness and Physical Health of of Reflection Happiness

            Well-being and physical health according to my line of thoughts are related as physical health is promoted by well-being. Positive well-being gives the energy to keep moving and maintain a better physical and mental health. Optimism and physical activity are connected with each other. After all, if a person is drowning in pessimism, he/she wouldn’t want to get up and be exposed to a new atmosphere. Instead, the person would rather sit or lie down for the whole day which negatively impacts physical health. When I am well, my physical activity increases so I think that physical activity is promoted with well-being and there are some common ways through which it can be increases like walking more and deliberately not using the elevator. Happiness is an effect that protects not only our physical activity but also our mental health and layers against external problems. Not well people are more likely to damage their health.

Global-Happiness around the World of of Reflection Happiness

            I think that surveying a diversity of citizens in a specific country can tell about the happiness rate in that region as development of the country has nothing to do with happiness. Through different aspects, it can also be measured such as Income, Health and Life expectancy, Social support, Freedom, Trust, and Generosity. In the west, happiest countries can be found such as Finland and Norway etc. Moreover in Asia, countries which are the unhappiest such as Syria can be found. I think that governments should start from erasing the poverty from their countries by stopping long-term projects and investing completely on the physical wealth of the citizens. Although citizens don’t have a major role to play in the initiatives taken by the government, they still can meet new members of the society and raise awareness, design strategies to improve their well-being, and adhere to the rules of the country. This can promote happiness (Dowling and Yap 2012).

Local-Happiness in the UAE of of Reflection Happiness

            When lifestyle is concerned then it is happiness but this happiness is initiated by nothing but the positive thinking. It is the initial well-being that produces positive thinking for upcoming activities and thus results in happiness. When the atmosphere is positive and outcomes show success, well-being is produced. If I were the Minister of State for Happiness, I would initiate a program regarding the poverty. It will rely on funding and use it to alleviate the poverty. It will fall under the E and R section of PERMA model. It will impact the individuals living under the line of poverty. E section will be involved as the initiative will rely on meeting diverse individuals and R section as positive relations with new people will be established. The outcome of this initiative will help in producing well-being. Although some other programs like the present one according to my perception are good but they are not practical enough.

Measuring Happiness-Your Pre/Post Survey Results

            Happiness is actually in other words nothing but the well-being of an individual or the atmosphere through which a person becomes happy. With GRIT, one is able to achieve happiness in a more successful way and it becomes easy to approach a goal and be happy. Happiness actually is derived from positive thoughts as the negative ones only drown one more in the misery and nothing else. Although both meaning and happiness are relevant, it doesn’t mean in the slightest that with a specific meaning, there is happiness in the life. With a meaning, happiness is probable but satisfaction surely is there. According to my perception, happiness on a basic level can be created by not only raising awareness but decreasing poverty as well. I think that citizens living in poverty should be surveyed to realize the happiness. Therefore, happiness can be raised be decreasing poverty and increasing the moments of happiness (Caunt, et al. 2013).
