The healthiest human beings in terms of interpersonal intrapersonal and societal relations are Hasidic Jews – and so if we study the positive traits of both themselves and their communities, we can emulate what is a healthy positive productive psychology, and the very first premise of the Hasidic communities is that everybody is equally valuable, and that’s not some kind of mantra like the French liberte; rather that is a subconscious premise, that everybody truly is valuable; and in order to have a healthy life, the first thing you need to believe, is that you are intrinsically valuable. II is high expectations III is a tremendous emphasis on education; the fourth cause is that the Hasidic Jews are religious Jews and as such having the benefits of Judaism: a. the notion of family b. the notion of respect c. the notion of law & order d. a certain type of fatalistic understanding that if something goes wrong it was the will of God, so no reason to become a victim, rather repent, learn and move on
