2.3 Discussion: The Good Life Synthesis Paper

Getting Started

In Workshop One, you reflected on your Personal Reflection Journal entries from throughout the program. You also watched a TED talk about the Good Life and read about the longest research study in American history related to well-being and happiness. In this assignment, you will continue to reflect on concepts in positive psychology, philosophy and the Christian faith that inform your developing philosophy and approach to what it means to lead a good life. 

Upon successful completion of this discussion, you will be able to:

· Synthesize core aspects of what the Good Life means to you.

Background Information

Continue to build on your Reflection Journal Summary and the beginnings of your Synthesis paper from Workshop One. You will need to do additional research related to The Good Life and incorporate your findings in a draft due in this assignment. The final synthesis paper is due in Workshop Four.    

Instructions

1. Refer to your  Personal Reflection Journal Summary,  Capstone and  TED Talk Journal entries, other course work, and the paper from Workshop Assignment 1.4, as needed.

2. Open the  Good Life Synthesis Paper that you started for Assignment 1.4. In a six to eight-page paper, add to your previous work by completing the remaining sections of the outline. Identify key lessons learned throughout the program as you continue to develop your own ideas around what the Good Life means to you. Conduct additional research as needed related to positive psychology and the Good Life; you should have tremendous resources from your previous coursework that you can also look back on.

3. According to the  Good Life Synthesis Paper Outline (Word document) , be sure to provide a title page, an introduction, a summary of your journals, additional content with in-text citations in the body of the paper, a conclusion to your paper, and a reference page.
