Concept note-1: -Positive psychology is based on the idea that building on our strengths is often a more effective path to success than trying to force excellence
in areas we are simply not suited for. In practice, this technique involves identifying one’s strengths and working to provide yourself with more opportunities to
use them.
Concept note-2: -Positive psychology’s main aim is to encourage people to discover and nurture their character strengths, rather than channeling their efforts
into correcting shortcomings. Positive psychology highlights the need for one to shift their negative outlook to a more optimistic view in order to improve quality
of life.
Concept note-3: -According to Seligman and Peterson, positive psychology addresses three issues: positive emotions, positive individual traits, and positive insti-
tutions. Positive emotions are concerned with being content with one’s past, being happy in the present and having hope for the future.
