1
Good morning everybody.
2
Today I want to get started with the main topic of this course, happiness.
3
First, I want to talk about how psychologists like myself measure happiness.
4
Then, we'll look at some common characteristics of happy people.
5
And finally, we'll look at whether or not we can change our level of happiness.
6
In other words, whether we can learn to be happier.
7
Okay, so we all know what it's like to feel happy, right?
8
But how do we measure happiness?
9
One common method psychologists use is interviewing people.
10
First, we ask them questions to find out how happy they are, how happy they feel in general.
11
Then, we gather information about them.
12
like their age, health, income, and so on.
13
We use all of this data to determine the most common characteristics of happy people.
14
So, what have psychologists learned?
15
Well, there are a few characteristics we know are not relevant to happiness.
16
One of them is having a lot of money.
17
As long as people have enough money for a home,
18
food, and clothing, having more money doesn't make people happier.
19
So money doesn't buy happiness.
20
Are you surprised?
21
Another thing that is not connected to happiness is having more education.
22
People with a lot of education are no happier than people with little education.
23
So now maybe you're questioning your decision to take this class, huh?
24
Finally, a third characteristic that is not a requirement for happiness is youth, being young.
25
In fact, the opposite is true.
26
One study found that 60 to 64 year olds are actually happier than 20 to 24 year olds.
27
So, we know that money, education, and youth are not important to happiness.
28
Then what is?
29
Well, there's no one way to achieve happiness, but there are a few specific characteristics that happy people have in common.
30
One very important characteristic is family and friends.
31
A study of students at the University of Illinois found that the happiest students had strong connections to family and friends,
32
and that they made time to spend with them.
33
Another common feature of happy people is that they have religious beliefs, or a belief in something bigger than themselves.
34
This helps them feel that life has significance or meaning.
35
A third important thing about happy people is that they set goals for themselves.
36
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.
37
Now, another question psychologists have tried to resolve is, can we change how happy we are?
38
Can we learn to be happier?
39
Some psychologists think the answer is no, we can't.
40
This is because research shows that happiness depends a lot on our personality, the kind of person we are.
41
Some people just have more positive attitudes about life than others.
42
We've all noticed this, right?
43
And because it's difficult for people to change their personalities,
44
some psychologists think that we stay at about the same level of happiness throughout our lives.
45
But many of us in the field of positive psychology believe we can change that we can consciously learn to be happier.
46
Positive psychologists have developed some exercises that people can do to feel happier.
47
One of these is called the gratitude visit.
48
In this exercise, people write a letter to someone they want to thank.
49
For example, a parent, a friend, a teacher here.
50
Someone they feel has helped them in their life.
51
But they don't send the letter.
52
Instead, they visit the person and read the letter to them.
53
Now, research shows this really works to make the person who wrote the letter feel happier.
54
Why?
55
First, it helps them feel more connected to others.
56
And remember, that is very important for happiness.
57
Second, the people are giving something.
58
In this case, they're thanks to someone else.
59
And giving or helping others makes us feel better about ourselves.
60
It helps us feel that our lives have meaning.
61
In addition to the gratitude visit,
62
psychologists have developed other exercises that help people focus on the positive things in their lives
63
and help them use their strength to achieve goals.
64
And studies have shown that these exercises can help people feel better.
65
However, they do have limits.
66
For one thing, each exercise only works for a certain amount of time.
67
For example, the gratitude visit only makes people happier for about three months.
68
And of course, we can't become a lot happier.
69
Remember, we can't totally change our personalities.
70
You can't take a really unhappy, negative person and make him or her feel super happy all the time.
71
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.
72
And you're going to find this out for yourselves.
73
For the next time, I'd like you to look into choosing your own happiness exercise.
74
Thank you.

이 영상으로 연습하는 방법

  1. 먼저 말하지 않고 영상을 끝까지 듣고 모르는 단어를 적어 둡니다.
  2. 보통 속도로 한 문장씩 섀도잉하고, 화자의 리듬과 맞을 때까지 반복합니다.
  3. 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, happiness, psychologist, characteristic 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
