A HAPPY

TEACHING LIFE:
Road to Teacherhood
By Sir Arjay Ao
Happiness is a
choice

Happiness in teaching
is your choice
Three words to ponder
Positive psychologists talk of three
types of happiness:
the PLEASANT LIFE which is filled with positive
emotion;
the GOOD LIFE in which engagement in work, love,
parenting and play makes time stand still; and,
the MEANINGFUL LIFE in which a person uses his
or her character strengths in service to a larger effort.
MAY YOU ENDURE ALL THE HAPPY LIVES OF
A TEACHER
