We, at Happiitude, in collaboration with Happiness Research team from the University of California, Berkeley, have turned Happiness research into a systematic curriculum for enhancing overall well-being of the students through a series of games and experiential activities. We have also formulated specialized programs for teachers and parents to empower them become effective partners in contributing to the emotional and academic development of their children and in creating a happy and purposeful future for them.
2. What is Happiitude
Happiitude has turned Happiness research in to games and activities based
workshops and curriculum for Children and adults from various walks of life
in collaboration with Happiness Research team from Berkeley, California.
3. The Problem is
• The Perspective that one day I will be Happy vs Happiness as a part
of everyday life
• That one day I will discover happiness vs Happiness as a learnable
skills
• To Play on mobile to be happy (momentarily) vs Play to learn to be
happy (forever)
4. Our insight about the Happiness
• The ultimate pursuit of every human being on this planet is same –
Happiness
• The ultimate goal of every single person behind doing every single
thing on this planet is same – Find Happiness.
• As we can not discover cycling or swimming one day without learning
it, same way we can not find Happiness one day, it is a learnable skill.
• If we make a mobile app turning science of happiness into games,
videos and interactive activities and offer it to customers as a
freemium program (free for few levels and charges later), it can be a
game changer in Self Help / Well being industry.
5. Our insight on the Happiness Market

6. What is Happiness, anyway?
We all have deeply personal (and different!) definitions of happiness.
But here’s how the scientist see it:
Happiness is a
combination of +
How satisfied you are
with your life
How good you feel on a
day-to-day basis
7. Determinants of Happiness
50 %
is genetically
determined
10 %
is determined by
your circumstances
40 %
Of your happiness
is controlled by your
thoughts, actions
and behaviours
Contrary to popular belief, we get used to our circumstances over time, so they don’t play
as large of a role in our happiness level as we might think!
8. Here’s what Happiness is NOT
Feeling
hunky-dory
all the time
Having all
the money
you ever
want
Refusing to see
the negative
stuff in the world
A final destination
