Free Positive Psychology series: Shan’s cockscrew of hope (Awarded Best Speaker!)

My beloved friends,

Yesterday evening’s speech was an engaging appreciation of beauty and excellence! A winning quote from my talk yesterday,

“The appreciation of beauty and excellence is a human strength harnessed to transcend the normality of living.”

Definitely, B.E.A.U.T.Y. Be Excellent At Unique Things Your way!

In a series of ten talks, the fifth in my free Positive Psychology collection is entitled Shan’s cockscrew of hope. In this talk, cockscrew is defined as a series of loops experienced in a rollercoaster ride. What has the cockscrew got to do with me, hope and Positive Psychology? A triad of hope buffers will be suggested as well.

I invite you to the fifth of my Positive Psychology series tomorrow evening in Singapore. Details as follows:

  • Topic: Shan’s cockscrew of hope
  • Venue: Bukit Merah Toastmasters Club, Bukit Merah Community Club, Singapore
  • Date: 23 April 2008

I look forward to seeing you there!

With love,
Pei Shan

Up close and personal on the “Simply Happy” conference in Singapore

Blogs are now an increasingly simple and easy method of obtaining information up close and personal! That, indeed, makes me tingle with happiness!

On the theme of happiness, I had the privilege of being at the Simply Happy conference (with the compliments of John, Philip and Normala.
