In the concept of most parents, positive is equal to happiness, positive education is happy education, and positive psychology is "chicken soup for the soul". In fact, the positive education advocated by positive psychology is not simply happy education. Happy education mostly refers to the use of certain happy and happy ways in education to create a happy atmosphere, but the positive meaning is much richer than happiness, and the connotation of positive education is far greater than the category of happy education.
The pursuit of positive education allows children to fully release their positive nature in a positive social, learning and living atmosphere, and find their own path to success. In fact, from the perspective of human or social development alone, the so-called achievements are far less than the meaning of happiness to life. More importantly, children who live in truthfulness, freedom, and happiness tend to do better.
In a survey of Tsinghua students, researchers found that most of Tsinghua's outstanding students preparing for the college entrance examination are not the kind of "head hanging beam, cone thorn stock", learning dark and sad. On the contrary, these excellent students are quite relaxed and confident before the college entrance examination, and take care of social activities or hobbies that they think are meaningful. That is to say, their mentality is very relaxed, their attitude towards learning is very positive, they have a clear grasp of the systematization and regularity of knowledge, and they are "happy and ecstatic about the poetry book". ”
From this, we can see that those who truly possess great wisdom and great happiness are those who possess great luck, and can control their lives and realize great dreams. On the contrary, those who are in a depressed, depressed, closed, and powerless state are more likely to encounter the glacier of life and cannot extricate themselves.
