Tired of teacher-talking? Want something exciting for your students? Then watch a movie! Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: Isn’t watching a movie a cop-out?

The documentary Happy moves from the slums of Kolkata, to Manhattan, the bayous of Louisiana, Japan, Denmark, and tiny Bhutan, telling stories about happiness. The audience is introduced to the rickshaw driver who lives in a slum but is happy nonetheless; the once-pretty woman whose face was run over by a truck who is getting ever closer to her baseline happiness; the short order cook who goes into a flow state flipping fried eggs; a man who has found contentment taking care of dying people; and several more.

Between the stories, the movie presents psychological insights from the new discipline of "Positive Psychology," a scientific effort to study what makes people happy. 20 Amazing Commercials That Will Inspire the Greatness in You. Do you watch TV?

20 Amazing Commercials That Will Inspire the Greatness in You

If you do, you would have seen countless commercial clips in between TV segments, where companies frantically advertise their products and services in 15-45 seconds, hoping to grab your attention and get you to buy their stuff. Personally, I don’t watch TV for 2 main reasons: (1) most syndicated programs today tend to be quite low consciousness (targeting feelings of jealousy, greed, ego, fear, etc.) (2) it’s a time waster to sit through commercial breaks. What’s more, many commercials today are flashy sales pitches that over-glamorize their products/services. Some prey on people’s insecurities to get you to buy their products. The beauty industry, for example, is chocked full of advertisements convincing you that you must look a certain way to be considered beautiful, while junk food, through the power of marketing, has turned into a tool for self-reward and self-love, in turn contributing to declining health.

Very Funny Ads
