“The aim of Positive Psychology is to catalyze a change in psychology from a preoccupation only with repairing the worst things in life to also building the best qualities in life.”
Martin Seligman
What is Positive Psychology?
Positive Psychology focuses on the study of human strengths, virtues and optimal functioning, founded by Martin Seligman in 1998.​
​
Positive psychologists believe that focusing only on what's wrong with us can cause us to overlook our strengths and talents which are often hidden beneath layers of negative thoughts or emotions like fear or shame. Positive Psychology aims at helping people become more aware of these strengths so they can use them more effectively in their daily lives.

The Pursuit of Happiness
Reset Coaching focuses on happiness as an achievable goal - a concept known as "the pursuit of happiness." This idea was first introduced by Founding Father Thomas Jefferson when he wrote in his Declaration of Independence that all men are "endowed by their Creator" with certain rights including "life," "liberty," and "the pursuit of happiness." In other words: everyone deserves to be happy!
