Genius Hour Cont'd

For my Genius Hour I've decided to do my own version of a Happiness Project. Ever since I read Gretchen Rubin's The Happiness Project I have been inspired to try and live my life to the fullest. I am going to use the hour that we have devoted to our projects to reread this book as well as read other  books about the concept of bringing happiness into our lives and how to do it.

I will measure my progress by implementing what I find in my research into my own life - piece by piece - to determine what works best for me. I think that its important that I "practice what I preach". That I'm not just saying that this and this works to make yourself happier, but that I've also tested it to see if it works for me.

However, the book by Gretchen Rubin explicitly says that everything she suggests in the book doesn't work for everyone, and thats true - it won't work for everyone. But I think its important that everyone take the time to see and really think about what makes them happy and what helps them to think more positively. So with my happiness project genius hour, I want to give suggestions for people to try, with hopes that they can take those ideas and go even further and become intrigued into looking at what makes them happy.

Each post I will suggest some different ideas on what people can do to start their own happiness project. Essentially I will rant on about what I have researched and people can pick and choose what works for them. I am going to try focusing on three different elements; mind, body, and soul.

Stay tuned!
