Positive energy. Discovering nature. What stuck with me the most was being together in nature. Good conversations in a free environment, without focusing on studying. In the beginning, the tasks were a bit awkward, but soon the class opened up.

Looking back at the entire experiment, I’m glad I joined. There are many different and simple things you can do to make yourself happier. Doing good deeds more often, giving compliments, or simply playing. These things are easy and fun to do.

The image that stayed with me is the whole class working together to complete a task, which was enjoyable to see.

Giving compliments was a wake-up call for me. Why don’t I give compliments to the people closest to me more often? To me, many of the tasks were meant for oneself, to open up creatively and expand your comfort zone.

Happiness is giving love, being grateful, having hope, enjoying, and being yourself.
