In modern science, happiness and well-being have

American psychologist, Martin Seligman, felt that
psychology needed to go beyond the ‘Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders’ and laid the
foundations of Positive Psychology
I am happily married, havea great job, lots of friends,
no worries... e
Hmmm... and how long
have you been like that?e

In late 1960s Seligman postulated the concept of
Learned Helplessness...
![Page 18: A Guide to Well-Being](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022021213/577d27761a28ab4e1ea3f190/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/a-guide-to-well-being 18/111
A condition of a human person or an animal in which it has
learned to behave helplessly, even when the opportunity is
restored for it to help itself by avoiding an unpleasant or
harmful circumstance to which it had been subjected
![Page 19: A Guide to Well-Being](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022021213/577d27761a28ab4e1ea3f190/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
8/6/2019 A Guide to Well-Being
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/a-guide-to-well-being 19/111
Seligman found that not all people who face set-backs become helpless and in 1990s he presented
the concept of Learned Optimism
q
I say, she is half dead!
qNah! She is half alive.
![Page 20: A Guide to Well-Being](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022021213/577d27761a28ab4e1ea3f190/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
8/6/2019 A Guide to Well-Being
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/a-guide-to-well-being 20/111
Optimists who do not
become helpless are,
• People who consider set-backs as temporary
• People who have theresilience to bounce back
• People who think set-
backs are controllable andlocal (e.g. I am bad at math, I am
not stupid)

Positive Psychology takes seriously the bright
hope that if you find yourself stuck in theparking lot of life, with few and only ephemeral
pleasures, with minimal gratifications, and
without meaning, there is a road out.This road takes you through the countryside of
pleasure and gratification, up into the high
country of strength and virtue, and finally to thepeaks of lasting fulfillment: meaning and purpose

In his more recent book, Flourish Seligman says
that Well-Being (measured by flourish) is a better
focus area for positive psychology than happiness
Happiness is measured by life
satisfaction, which is influenced
hugely by how we are feeling at
the very moment we are asked
the question and which is often
confused with being in a
cheerful mood

We are bad at affective forecasting - i.e. predicting
how we will feel in the future
Lottery winners or people who become disabled after an
accident, return back to their happiness ‘set-point’ - pleasure or
disconsolation, both are ‘taken for granted’ after a while
Human mind is sensitive to changes in condition but not so
sensitive to absolute levels

point for happiness, it seems in the long run it does
not matter what happens, we will always default

This has been called the Hedonic Treadmill of life - you can run
as fast as you want and accumulate all the riches you can, yet
you will remain stuck at your natural and usual state of happiness, because the riches you gain will simply raise your
expectations and leave you no better off than you were before

Adversity usually gives you an opportunity to come
off the Hedonic Treadmill, because it makes youtake a pause, reflect on your life and decide if you
want to hop back on the treadmill or get off it

Meditation offers another way for coming off the
hedonic treadmill - meditate to train your mind
to stop ‘wanting’ too much, instead start ‘liking’
what life has made available to you
What I Think
Never Happens
Whatever Happens
I Start Thinking

changing them will increase our happiness

The paper concludes that, “The slum dwellers of Calcutta generally
experience a lower sense of life satisfaction than more affluent
comparison groups, but are more satisfied than one might expect. This
could be due, in part, to the strong emphasis on social relationships and
the satisfaction derived from them.”
Robert-Biswas Diener and
Ed Dienerʼs research paper,
ʻ Making the Best of a Bad Situation: Satisfaction in the
Slums of Calcutta ̓ explores
how one can be happy
despite adverse lifeconditions

This is based on John Bowlby’s Attachment Theory, where
he showed that infants need to develop a relationship
with at least one primary caregiver (secure base) for
social and emotional development to occur normally

Secure Attachment: children stop or reduce their play
when their secure base leaves the room
Avoidant Attachment: these children don’t care whethersecure base comes or goes, they try to distress manage
themselves (usually not very well)
Resistant Attachment: these children become anxious,clingy or extremely upset when separated from their
secure base
According to Attachment Theory,children can have -

Hazan and Shaver’s research extends the
Attachment Theory to adult romantic relationships
They noticed that interactions between adult
romantic partners shared similarities to interactionsbetween children and caregivers

For example, romantic partners desire to be close to
one another
Romantic partners feel comforted when their
partners are present and anxious or lonely when
their partners are absent

Romantic relationships serve as
a secure base that help partners
face the surprises, opportunities,
and challenges life presents
Research by Pascal Vrticka shows
that avoidantly attached adults
are three times more likely to be
solitary at the age of seventy

Work - Job, Career or Calling?
• Work is a job when the primary drive is money
• Work is a career when it is pursued for
advancement, promotion and prestige
• Work is a calling when it is intrinsically fulfilling

work for no other reward)

A man came across three masons who were chippingchunks of granite from large blocks.
The first seemed unhappy at his job, chipping away and
frequently looking at his watch.
When the man asked what it was that he was doing, the
first mason responded, rather curtly, “I’m hammering this
stupid rock, and I can’t wait till 5 when I can go home.Oh, what all I have to endure to make a little money”

Often there’s tension between the innermodels and the outer world. So we try to
come up with concepts that will help usunderstand the world, or changes in behaviourthat will help us live in harmony with it.
When we grasp some situation, or mastersome task, there’s a surge of pleasure. Its not
living in harmony that produces the surge. If that were so, we’d be happy living on the beachall our lives. It’s the moment some tension iserased.
So a happy life has its recurring set of rhythms:
difficulty to harmony, difficulty to harmony.
And it is all propelled by the desire forlimerence, the desire for the moment when theinner and outer patterns mesh.
