Positivity transforms us for the better  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Flourishing goes beyond happiness, or satisfaction with life. True, people who flourish are happy. But that’s not the half of it. Beyond feeling good, they’re also doing good-adding value to the world  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Love is that micro-moment of warmth and connection that you share with another living being  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) My all-time favorite topic in positive psychology is the study of positive emotions. I’m fascinated by how pleasant experiences, which can be so subtle and fleeting, can add up over time to change who we become. I’m especially excited these days about investigating how positive emotions change the very ways that our cells form and function to keep us healthy.  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Positivity opens us. The first core truth about positive emotions is that they open our hearts and our minds, making us more receptive and more creative  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Flourishing is not a solo endeavor  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) The negative screams at you but the positive only whispers  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Positive emotions are not trivial luxuries, but instead might be critical necessities for optimal functioning  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) It turns out that unexplained positivity lasts longer than positivity we analyze until we fully understand it  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) When we inject people with positivity, their outlook expands. They see the big picture. When we inject them with neutrality or negativity, their peripheral vision shrinks. There is no big picture, no dots to connect  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Positivity doesn’t just change the contents of your mind... It widens the span of possibilities that you see  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Positive people are able to maintain a broader perspective and see the big picture which helps them identify solutions where as negative people maintain a narrower perspective and tend to focus on problems  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) Love requires you to be physically and emotionally present. It also requires that you slow down  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes) The benefits of positive emotions don’t stop after a few minutes of good feelings subside. In fact, the biggest benefit that positive emotions provide is an enhanced ability to build skills and develop resources for use later in life  (Barbara Fredrickson Quotes)
