Details
Modern society is in an era of environmental problems, poverty, wars, and pandemics, all of which have exposed the limitations of capitalism. To overcome this situation, we should build a society that puts well-being first. This talk will discuss this historical need for wellbeing. Next, we will discuss the foundations of wellbeing and happiness studies. I will discuss the "four factors of happiness" obtained through factor analysis of mental factors: the "Let's try" factor (self-actualization and growth factor), the "Thank you" factor (human relations and gratitude factor), the "You can do it" factor (optimism and positivity factor), and the "Be yourself" factor (independence and identity factor).
