Successful people think differently. They have the ability to bounce back, persevere, and make things happen. In this innovative learning laboratory, participants are exposed to the growing research on the mindset for success. Discover why some people run away from challenges while others rise to the occasion. If you feel like you have reached a plateau; or if you are afraid of both failure and success; if you are prone to giving up or self-sabotage,then let twenty years of research teach you the mindset for success.

In a world focused on fixing weakness where many approaches to psychology are directed toward pathologies, discover instead the new field of identifying, studying and using our signature strengths. Discover which strengths correlate with individual life satisfaction, success, effective parenting, creativity and more. Learn to harness your own inner strengths and support those around you. In this way, you can shift from a mindset of deficiency to one of potential.

Gratitude is an often overlooked yet powerful approach to increasing positive emotions. Over the past two decades scientists have discovered many subtle ways for using gratitude as a tool for affecting physical and emotional health. Learn to shift from a negative or neutral emotional state into a positive one. And learn to feel grateful rather than just think about gratitude. Learning the science of gratitude will leave participants feeling empowered, and inspired with tools for boosting their mood and feeling authentically happier.
