Good morning everybody.

Today I want to get started with the main topic of this course, happiness.

First, I want to talk about how psychologists like myself measure happiness.

Then, we'll look at some common characteristics of happy people.

And finally, we'll look at whether or not we can change our level of happiness.

In other words, whether we can learn to be happier.

Okay, so we all know what it's like to feel happy, right?

But how do we measure happiness?

One common method psychologists use is interviewing people.

First, we ask them questions to find out how happy they are, how happy they feel in general.

Then, we gather information about them.

like their age, health, income, and so on.

We use all of this data to determine the most common characteristics of happy people.

So, what have psychologists learned?

Well, there are a few characteristics we know are not relevant to happiness.

One of them is having a lot of money.

As long as people have enough money for a home,

food, and clothing, having more money doesn't make people happier.

So money doesn't buy happiness.

Are you surprised?

Another thing that is not connected to happiness is having more education.

People with a lot of education are no happier than people with little education.

So now maybe you're questioning your decision to take this class, huh?

Finally, a third characteristic that is not a requirement for happiness is youth, being young.

In fact, the opposite is true.

One study found that 60 to 64 year olds are actually happier than 20 to 24 year olds.

So, we know that money, education, and youth are not important to happiness.

Then what is?

Well, there's no one way to achieve happiness, but there are a few specific characteristics that happy people have in common.

One very important characteristic is family and friends.

A study of students at the University of Illinois found that the happiest students had strong connections to family and friends,

and that they made time to spend with them.

Another common feature of happy people is that they have religious beliefs, or a belief in something bigger than themselves.

This helps them feel that life has significance or meaning.

A third important thing about happy people is that they set goals for themselves.

In the workplace or in their personal lives, they establish goals around things they find interesting or things that allow them to use their strengths.

Now, another question psychologists have tried to resolve is, can we change how happy we are?

Can we learn to be happier?

Some psychologists think the answer is no, we can't.

This is because research shows that happiness depends a lot on our personality, the kind of person we are.

Some people just have more positive attitudes about life than others.

We've all noticed this, right?

And because it's difficult for people to change their personalities,

some psychologists think that we stay at about the same level of happiness throughout our lives.

But many of us in the field of positive psychology believe we can change that we can consciously learn to be happier.

Positive psychologists have developed some exercises that people can do to feel happier.

One of these is called the gratitude visit.

In this exercise, people write a letter to someone they want to thank.

For example, a parent, a friend, a teacher here.

Someone they feel has helped them in their life.

But they don't send the letter.

Instead, they visit the person and read the letter to them.

Now, research shows this really works to make the person who wrote the letter feel happier.

Why?

First, it helps them feel more connected to others.

And remember, that is very important for happiness.

Second, the people are giving something.

In this case, they're thanks to someone else.

And giving or helping others makes us feel better about ourselves.

It helps us feel that our lives have meaning.

In addition to the gratitude visit,

psychologists have developed other exercises that help people focus on the positive things in their lives

and help them use their strength to achieve goals.

And studies have shown that these exercises can help people feel better.

However, they do have limits.

For one thing, each exercise only works for a certain amount of time.

For example, the gratitude visit only makes people happier for about three months.

And of course, we can't become a lot happier.

Remember, we can't totally change our personalities.

You can't take a really unhappy, negative person and make him or her feel super happy all the time.

But I do believe that if we really want to, we can all learn ways to feel better, to feel the best that we can.

And you're going to find this out for yourselves.

For the next time, I'd like you to look into choosing your own happiness exercise.

Thank you.

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:

संरचना	वीडियो में
Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है	have tried · have developed · has helped
Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता है	is not connected · is called

ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण

वक्ता 14 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे can't, doesn't, we'll। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।

“th” की ध्वनियाँ: clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/
लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: psychologist /ˌsaɪˈkɑl.ə.d͡ʒɪst/, characteristic /ˌkæɹ(ə)ktəˈɹɪstɪk/, psychology /saɪˈkɑ.lə.d͡ʒi/, significance /sɪɡˈnɪfɪkəns/

हिंदी भाषियों के लिए मुश्किल ध्वनियाँ:

/v/ और /w/ का फ़र्क़ — /v/ में ऊपर के दाँत निचले होंठ को छूते हैं, /w/ में होंठ गोल होते हैं: requirement /ɹɪˈkwaɪɹmənt/, resolve /ɹɪˈzɑlv/, workplace /ˈwɝkˌpleɪs/, yourselves /jəˈsɛlvz/
/z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: resolve /ɹɪˈzɑlv/, yourselves /jəˈsɛlvz/
/æ/ — “ऐ” से ज़्यादा खुला: happiness /ˈhæpinɪs/, characteristic /ˌkæɹ(ə)ktəˈɹɪstɪk/, gratitude /ˈɡɹæ.tɪ.tud/, establish /ɪˈstæb.lɪʃ/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/

इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें

पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
सामान्य गति पर एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें और हर वाक्य तब तक दोहराएँ जब तक आपकी लय वक्ता से न मिल जाए।
अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर happiness, gratitude, belief जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
