Listen ""If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things." Teach Different with Albert Einstein - Happiness"
Episode Synopsis
What’s the best way to lead a happy life?
When kids talk about strategies for living a happy life, they often talk about goals, like getting a great job or becoming famous. If they reach that goal, then that's clear evidence of success and deep satisfaction for having pursued something to completion. But, what about the relationships we build? They also shape our happiness in a meaningful way. Sorting what makes a person truly happy is challenging work.
Join Steve and Dan Fouts with Emily Poole, third grade teacher, for a conversation about happiness and how depending on people and things may not be our best option for achieving it.
Whether you are a teacher, school leader, or simply someone interested in experiencing the joy and fulfillment of challenging kids with big ideas, join our worldwide Community of Educators FREE for 30 days. Membership includes access to our robust library of resources, conversation plans, and lively discussions among teachers and faculty.
