Authentic Happiness: Using the New Positive Psychology to Realize Your Potential for Lasting Fulfillment --- by Martin Seligman
A national bestseller, Authentic Happiness launched the revolutionary new science of Positive Psychology—and sparked a coast-to-coast debate on the nature of real happiness.
According to esteemed psychologist and bestselling author Martin Seligman, happiness is not the result of good genes or luck. Real, lasting happiness comes from focusing on one’s personal strengths rather than weaknesses—and working with them to improve all aspects of one’s life. Using practical exercises, brief tests, and a dynamic website program, Seligman shows readers how to identify their highest virtues and use them in ways they haven’t yet considered. Accessible and proven, Authentic Happiness is the most powerful work of popular psychology in years.

Improving the Education Attainment Level of All Kentuckians
Kentucky’s
economic well-being is inextricably linked to the education and skills
of its citizens. The relationship between educational excellence and
economic growth is more critical today than it has ever been. In our
modern economy, competition comes from nations on the other side of the
world, not just from our neighboring states.
Kentucky must be focused and relentless in its work to create a system of education that is truly world class. All Kentuckians have a role to play, none more important than the state’s business community.
It is the state’s employers who face competition every day and who understand the limitations created by an under-educated workforce.
