Dear team! Today we will talk about the first key of happiness: Giving, and investigate this topic more closely.

First let‘s make sure we know what by “Giving“ is meant.

# data[].attributes.body
Giving:
1- give help people who need it
2- give a chance to learn to everybody
3- do charity: give clothes, give school materials to the ones who need it

Relating - connect with people
When you connect with people you can get to know them or for example help them,and an other example is when you connect with people from an other country and then also we can relate to them

Direction means that we have goals to look forward to, so that's really important but in a very positive way because in life, we all should have a dream that we want to come true even if sometimes this isn't easy at all and it could be hard and complicated for us to take a decision that we think is the right one and that will lead us to the right direction.

# data[].attributes.body
for us acceptance means accept yourself for who you are, with your merits and your flaws, you don’t have to comparate yourself to other people,you don’t have to change yourself for nobody because you have to be proud of yourself

Dear Team! Today we will talk about the first key of happiness: Giving, and investigate this topic more closely. First let’s make sure we know what by “Giving“ is meant.

Giving is the act of offering time, resources, skills, or empathy to others without expecting anything in return. It embodies generosity, kindness, and the desire to contribute to the well-being of your surroundings and loved-ones. Giving can be material, like donating money or goods, or or it can be helping with advice, support, or just listening. Ultimately, giving not only  strengthens connections and relationships but it makes us more caring and often brings a sense of fulfillment.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Team,

the key awareness teaches us to slow down and take notice. We have to learn to be mindful. We decide how we work, the way we eat, our how we live relationships. It teaches us to get in tune and to live in the present instead of wondering about the future or the past. To get to that goal you should try to Not overthink and to be yourself. Do What you think is Right and don‘ Care What Other people think. You are fine being yourself. I hope it teaches you too and makes your life easier.

Kind regards,

Zara and Aaliyah

Exercising is important for your mental health, it helps you to distract yourself from negative thoughts. It has a big impact on your psychic symptoms. It does not matter what type of exercise you choose, as long as it makes you happy.

Hello dear E-twinning partners, this is Max and Alina, during today‘s (11.11.24) lesson we collected some ideas on how to become a happier person by ‘trying out’.

Our idea with this is to create a door for an advent calender based on the ten keys of happiness, these are some ideas we’ve come up with.

• Developing new skills and capabilities can help you fulfil your true potential

• find long-term meaning in your new hobbies / skills

• your curiosity can help you find new friends and connections with all types of people

• one can gain competence and fulfilment by learning new skills

Reflection : what’s something new you’ve learnt recently ?

The tip we decided to focus on is finding long-term meaning and enjoyment in new hobbies and skills.

Please think of a tip on how to achieve happiness by trying out and create a picture / advent calendar door as we did.

Another idea of ours is writing a poem, what do you think of that ?

In our opinion living with awareness is also important when something bad happens to us, because not everything depends on us, but even when things are not going properly you have to stay calm and try to face the problem in the right way. Trying to face life mindfulness and with awareness is the key to live your best life.

Direction means knowing where you want to go in life or what you want to achieve. In other words, you need to have your own goals to live a better life. When you achieve these goals, you get endorphins, which make you feel happy.

2. Examples of How We Can Use This Point in Our Lives

Examples:

a. Set goals that you want to reach in five or ten years, such as pursuing a specific career. These long-term goals give our lives a clear direction.

b. Also, set smaller, achievable goals for the day or week, like regular exercise or reading a book. Such short-term goals motivate us in everyday life.

It is very important to be active. Training helps both your physical and mental health.

Training helps your mood, your skills, and extends your life.

You can play sports such as football, dance, lacrosse, and much more. Movement is important for the body and the muscles.

If you want to have fun, you can train with other people.

We aren't satisfied about what we have written in the second and third point so we have modified it, here it is:

-Being brave enough to have a speech in front of a crowd, because if you are able to do this, it means that you don't mind about what the others think about your say and this isn't something that everybody can do. Because very few people have the courage enough to speak what they really want to reach because of being afraid of being judged, but if you want to "mean" you need to have your own ideas and to make them happen.

-Having your thoughts, because if you have your own ideas, you can defend them in front of someone that has another opinion on that debate just because those are what you really mean. However, if you get manipulated by ideas that aren't your real ones but they are convenient to you it's a very big risk for you, because you will never get the chance to be part of something big just because there will always be someone that has a better say than yours on that.

Trying

New things

Exciting, unknown

I find new strengths

Fulfilment

That is a poem we wrote about our key : “trying out”.

It’s an elevenie which consists of 11 words.

The first column consists of a word ( for example a color ).

The second column consists of two words that are in connection with the first one ( objects that have a certain color ). In the third column you give a more precise definition of what you just mentioned.

Afterwards comes something about yourself / yourselves, starting with an “I”.

Finally you add a final thought of yours.

We hope that helps you if you should be creating your own poems.

Storms may rage and skies may cry,

Yet anger’s flame will soon run dry.

What we can’t change, let go, let be,

Find peace in what we cannot see.

This poem is about accepting things beyond our control. I used the weather as a symbol for things we can’t change. This poem encourages letting go of anger and to find peace.

Life's a gift, wrapped tight each year,

Sometimes joy, sometimes fear.

But as the Christmas lights shine bright,

They warm up even the coldest night.

It’s not in things or perfect plans,

Not just gifts or big demands.

It’s family laughs, a snowy street,

The warmth we find when people meet.

Life’s meaning hides in simple things,

In songs we sing, in bells that ring.

And every year, as lights glow high,

I feel a spark—I don’t know why.

Maybe life’s just this: the cheer we share,

The hope in hearts that’s always there.

Dear team. This is Martin and Sjur. The key to happier living we were picked out for, rather than decided on, was "Trying out".

Key 5 Trying out is about trying new things in your life to hopefully better your life, and live happier. For trying out new things, me and Martin want to prepare to try out skydiving. As we are too young, we can´t do so yet, but we want to break through our mental barrier and try out skydiving someday. For me (Sjur) this doesn´t seem as scary, but rather thrilling, but Martin is terrified, so I think that the mental barrier is only to be broken by Martin. Trying out skydiving will be a breakthrough for us and will lead us to happier living in the future by trying out things (some) of us are terrified of now.

Living with awareness can be hard to some,due to different factors,but if you want to live a mindful life you can try to do activities to reduce your stress levels like yoga,or painting. You can also ask for help to friends,or professional's,to get their opinion and,or their help to live in tranquility. I have a friend who is transgender, and since starting hormone therapy, he’s been feeling happier and more at ease than ever before. He’s become calmer and less anxious, especially since his parents accepted him for who he is. This is just one example of how living authentically and addressing personal challenges can contribute to a mindful and fulfilling life. By embracing his true self, he was able to lift a significant burden off his shoulders, reducing much of the stress he carried.

Everyone faces their own struggles, but taking steps to address them, even gradually, can lead to a deeper sense of peace and alignment with oneself.

When you relate with people you can know their ideas and also you can discover their method of thinking, and so you can understand them. However relating is not only about connection with people but also with animals and objects. So we shouldn't only think about people, but also about the enviroment.

Matteo and Carolina

We think that our keys could be applied in real life in two ways: physically and mentally.

Physically can be applied by:

• working out in a mild way: you shouldn't work out too much or too less, otherwise you could have health problem. So by working out in a mild way you can keep yourself active without effect yourself

1 example of how we can use direction in life

First of all, to find our direction in life we need goals. These goals can be long-term or short-term. The short ones can be short tasks or goals that we want to achieve by the end of the day as making all our homework, have a moment of relax for ourselves or hanging out with our friends. Meanwhile the long ones can be harder to achieve because they will take more time and more hard work. Some example of that could be: getting the job of our dreams, travelling around the world, or if we talk in more generic terms something that will make us say "we made it" and in the end, once we get what we've been looking for for a really long time, we will feel for sure feel satisfied and happy.

Chiara and Daniel

# data[].attributes.body
Let’s start with saying that “Giving” also includes immaterial things, like time.

If people are in trouble, or just don’t feel at their best, you can give them your time, for example you can spend some time with a friend of yours that is not happy at the moment.

It could happen for example when you’re at school, you notice someone in your class that is not as happy as usual, so, instead of doing something you like during the break, you spend some time with him/her.

In Germany, we have a so-called “Adventskalender“. It’s a tradition, which makes waiting for Christmas easier. Everyday from the 1st December to Christmas (24th December), we open a little door from the advent calendar. Mostly there’s a little chocolate in it, but you can also buy an advent calendar with cosmetics, etc. Our teacher knows an app where you can make your own digital calendar! We invite you to make your own little picture for the advent calendar, possibly with a little poem or saying and a drawing that demonstrates your key.

An elfchen translated means an „elevenie“. It‘s basically a short poem with a given pattern. For example into the first row you have to write one noun about your topic. Then in the second row two adjectives about your topic. I think you get the idea, this goes on and in the end you write the noun you wrote in the first row and end the poem. It‘s an interesting type of poem and I really wanted to try it out. I hope you like it!😇 Tell me what you think of it.
