26、ge or university, there is a good chance that you will, too. Even ifyour parents did not go to college, you still have a good chance of completing higher education if yourfamily is wealthy.But your chances are reduced if you come from a needy family, a community with limited educational resources or
27、 you simply have no one to follow as an example.Helping those in need is one of the main ideas behind a strategy of behavioral science called nudgetheory or nudging.

28、olleges and universities look to nudging as way to support poor, minority and first-generation students, They also are using it to increase overall graduation rates. Two common forms of nudging are emails to students and text messages to their mobile phones. Schools andother educational organization
29、s keep in contact with students this way, offering advice and help whenneeded.However, Alejandra Acosta-a higher education policy expert at New America一notes that thereare several qualities a nudge campaign must possess in order to be successful.Acosta says messages must be timely, meaning they reac
30、h college students well before the date by which a student is required to take action. Additionally nudges should be written clearly and provide as much information as possible. If students start to struggle in class, school officials should not just message them, saying they should seek academic su
31、pport. The message should give information about what kinds of support the college or university offers and exactly how the student can make use of them.That is why nudges should possess interactive qualities, Acosta says. For example, students should be able to ask questions of school officials or
32、be directed to a website for more information. In addition, colleges and universities must ensure their support services are in place and working as best they can.When nudges work, they can do a lot of good. In 2018, a nonprofit group launched a nudging campaign at four U.S. community colleges. They
33、 worked with nearly 10.000 first-year students at three such colleges in Ohio and one in Virginia. A recent study found that older and minority students who agreed to receive these nudges were 16 to 20 percent more likely to continue into their second year than those who did not.28.

A national campaign dealing with poverty.DAttitudes Wired in Happy and Successful BrainsIve carefully examined happy and successful people from all different professions actors, scientists, comedians, musicians, etc. They share very similar phi
38、losophies. Here are some of the fundamental attitudes and beliefs that contribute to their happiness and success: This is one of the most commonly recited mottos in selfimprovement. Individuals who see their mistakes and failures as a learning experience are much more prone to happiness and success.
39、When we adopt the belief that “failure is a part of learning,” we become more resilient and courageous in the face of new challenges. Instead of avoiding situations where we may embarrass ourselves, we embrace these challenges in life, even when we know they can be risky and painful. When we do fail
40、, we dont see it as the end of the world, but a point to improve upon. Many people are great at finding problems and being critical about their lives; however, they do this without ever suggesting a possible solution or alternative to their situation. They complain about this and that, but they neve
41、r take an active role to actually improve these things. They focus on problems not to learn from them or fix them, but to make excuses for why their lives are miserable and unpleasant.I believe acknowledging problems in life is important. I dont recommend that we ignore things in our life that distu
42、rb us or make us unhappy. However, its also important to think of ways we can actually respond to these problems and change our circumstances.Ruminating over problems in our life without a plan to take action is not only a waste of time, but it makes us even more sad and depressed. If youre going to
43、 be critical about something in your life, focus on the ways you can actually make a difference. Happy and successful people are incredibly grateful for their lives and everything they have: their relationships, their home, their job, their possessions, their talents, their achievements, etc.Althoug
44、h successful people are often thought of as always hungry and striving always trying to improve things, achieve their goals, and make things better this inner drive doesnt take away from the fact they are very happy and content with their lives.Gratitude is an irreplaceable characteristic of true ha
45、ppiness and success. Even if we achieve great things in life, without gratitude we often find ourselves empty and discontent. Make sure you take the time to reflect on how lucky you are as a person (I believe everyone can find something to be grateful for) Happy and successful individuals know that
46、we can learn a lot from other happy and successful individuals. Having people to look up to is a great resource for learning the beliefs and habits that contribute to other peoples success, and then modeling those beliefs and habits in our own lives.If you want to improve a particular area of your l
47、ife, then find a couple of people who already excel in that area of life. Study them. Ask them questions. Have them show you their technique and share their stories. The more willing you are to learn from others, the more successful you will be. Talking and listening to others is one of the best way
