Positive Psychology

The aim of Positive Psychology is to catalyze

a change in psychology from a preoccupation

only with repairing the worst things in life to

also building the best qualities in life.

जिजीविषा -जीने की चाह, Will to live

सूर्य के उदय से अस्त होने के साथ घटती आयु,

जन्म, जरा, कष्ट, और मृत्यु को देखकर भी मनुष्य को भय  नहीं होता।

आशा , तृष्णा, राग- द्वेष, तर्क-वितर्क,  अधैर्य , अज्ञान-वृत्ति-दर्प-दम्भ रूपी भंवर

से पार पाना  है कठिन ।

कायांत या शरीर का अंत,  अंतअमरत्व स्वाभाविक अवस्था है……

अनश्वरता एक भूल है……..

जिजीविषा  का संहार करने वाले काल है शाश्वत सत्य……..

यह सारा सत्य जान कर भी सभी

 जगत के मोहरूपी मादक मदिरा में ङूब जाते हैं।

We are only pieces

Love is the whole thing,

we are only pieces.

PsyCap: Psychological Capital for better performance

Psychological Capital (PsyCap)  is – “an individual’s positive psychological state of development”.

There are  4 important PsyCap Capacities that helps to lower the stress level and performa better.

Hope
Optimism
Self-efficacy
Resilience

Hope  is a positive motivational state that is based on an interactively derived sense of successful agency /goal-directed energy and pathways / planning to meet goals.

Optimism is  not only expecting good things to come, but reacting to problems with a sense of confidence and high personal ability.

Self-efficacy is  the belief that you are able to accomplish something effectively.

Resilience – People not only bounce back from the not so good events in life but they rebound and go beyond where they were previously. They go beyond better.
