A Course-based Searching for a Happier LifeLearning APP, I have changed a lot. I learned how to make and adjust my plan. And I stared some good rituals. I learned communication and cooperation and so on. APP is useful to me.Part ⅠI found a new goal in Ningbo University.Before I came into Ningbo University, I had a very relaxed vacation. In the vacation, I lost myself. Because of the nervous life in high school, I didn’t know what to do after the college entrance examination. I did n’t know how to arrange my spare time. I liked a lost sheep in the ground thought there is a lot of grass, I did n’t know how to eat.In this situation, I entered the Ningbo University. Here, I learned the class of APP. At first, I didn’t like this class because of the English. I felt unhappy. Until one day, I learned this word in the book“this book is intended to help you understand the nature of happiness; more than that, it is intended to help you become happier.” (On page xii) This is what I always think in my vacation. So I began interested in this course. Then I became seriously about this class and went over the language. I looked the book carefully and fou nd this “we all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same”----- Anne Frank (page preface) I understood, living with the objective, you can be happy. In my summer vacation, I lost my goal and at sea. Then, I make a plan about the life in university: I must get up at 7:00, listen carefully in class, work hard and hand homework in time. Besides, call my mom every week and tell her something about my plan. Pass all exams in University. Then I became happy gradually. The APP classes tell me something I had known but forgot it—have goals. It is the first thing on the road searching for a happier life.Part ⅡI tried to move from anxiety zone to stretch zone.As the days going, I met difficulty again. All teachers taught us in English. I couldn’t understand what the teachers mean. I could not follow the teachers in class. I felt sad and unconfident. I lived in anxiety zone. I became more and more unhappy. APP classes taught me once again. These sentences like:in the middle of difficultylies opportunity”-----Albert Einstein. “No pain, no gain” to “present gain, future gain”. (page 87)I know that I should not give up. The future is in my hands, what I do today decides what I will be in the future. If I can come over this difficulty, I will be a success. So, I made a plan again. Every day, I spent three hours learning English. Besides, I also borrowed a book related on English learning. I prepared a note which used to write new words in every class. Then, I became happy again and felt good about the all-English lessons. This is the second thing on the road searching for a happier life. Facing to difficulty is happy, too.Part ⅢI started some new rituals.Gradually, I have entered Ningbo University for several months and familiar about Ningbo University. I began to play much of time. Like reading fiction stories, going shopping, watching TV and so on. I felt happy when I played them, but when I have spare time, I felt vacuous.Then I made a new plan for myself. But unfortunately, I can’t do it as the plan. At this time, I got ideas again in APP. We all know that change is hard. Much research suggests that learning new tricks, adopting new behaviors, or breaking old habits may be harder than we even realize and that most attempts at change, whether by individuals or organizations, fail!(on page 8) My situation is the same with what he said. I learn this chapter with an exciting heart. I want to find a method to solve my problem. The Power of Full Engagement Jim and Tony provide a different way of thinking about change: instead of focusing on cultivating self-discipline as a means toward change, we need to introduce rituals (on page 9).Then I tried to do it. First, I left my mobile phone in the desk every night and powered it off when I have lessons.I found it difficult at the first day and night. I felt strange and I don’t know what to do sometimes. (I would play mobile phone in this time) This situation continued several days. But I failed at last. I realized that I must do something to get rid of this habit. Second, I removed the stories which in my mobile phone and canceled the Internet traffic. Thus, even though I want to play, I have nothing to play. And I learned Principles of Accounting in my spare time (I would play mobile phone in this time). This situation continued a week and I can do something in spare time. I want to forma habit. So I insisted on another week.” Bui lding rituals requires defining very precise behaviors and performing them at very specific times---motivated by deeply held values” (-------Jim and Toney Schwartz. Page 9)I agree with it through my experience. Through learning APP I came over the limitations of myself and formed of rituals. I felt happy very much. Changing is the biggest achievement in my life from birth to now. This is the third thing on the road searching for a happier life. To change myself makes me feel happy very much.Part ⅣI learned communication and cooperation through group work.Time is going fast, I have changed a lot. But in this field, I still can’t conquer it. I always shy to communicate with others.The APP gives me an opportunity to communicate with others. We have four groups in this class. At last, we made a group work which is to give food to dogs. It is not only can communicate with others, but also makes me learn to love animals. By communicating with others, I become happier and don’t fear to communicate with others any more. This is the fourth thing on the road searching for a happier life. Besides the things above, I also get over procrastination. I always do something behind time. Because of this, I often miss something. And I also late for review, so can’t have satisfied grates in school. But grate Tal and the lessons APP, I succeeded in getting it over.I also learned Meditate and form rituals of exercise. Some meaningful sentences like: courage is not about not having feared, it’s about having fe ar and going ahead anyway.” “We can get over bad things a lot quicker than we would anticipate.” “What is most personal is most general.”(网易公开课)and so on. And I also learn from Roger Bannister story that nothing is impossible. Also learn to appreciation and share. By the way, “Happiness depends upon ourselves”-----Aristotle (page 135)From the above description and reflection, I learned that changing is the biggest harvest. It makes my life happy. In my opinion, learning APP is the way searching for happier life. And the APP will help me not only now but also the long life in the future.我的行动和改变1 通过学习幸福课，我变得将感激时刻记在心里，挂在嘴上。
