Energy Harvesting
Joining this course presents opportunity to learn about energy harvesting that refers to a technology that converts the energy discarded in our daily lives into useful electrical energy that we can use. As we all know, most of low-power electronics, such as remote sensors, are driven by batteries. However, even when it comes to long-lasting batteries, they face an issue that is a regular replacement. It can turn out to be costly as there are hundreds of sensors in remote locations. Whereas, energy harvesting technologies supply unlimited operating life of low-power equipment and even remove the need to replace batteries where it is costly, unfeasible, or unsafe. The whole sessions cover the concept of energy harvesting technologies, which has gained popularity over the last few years, and thus will be beneficial for those who seeks for understanding principles and their applications.

Fulfillment And Happiness With Mindfulness And Introspection
Many people say that they do unfulfilling work. But how do you know what will truly fulfill you? In this course, you will learn about finding purpose, how to be more mindful, how to gain more introspection, and explore your inner life so you can more accurately understand what exactly will fulfill you, and pursue it. You will also learn about hormones that motivate you, which can be a little mental trick that your mind plays on you. Once you will know how to identify that, you won't fall prey to distractions like that. The goal of this course is to get you headed in the most accurate and correct direction for your life and to choose the work that is most fulfilling and rewarding. And that should significantly boost your feelings of happiness and satisfaction. In Eastern philosophy, the key to happiness is a lack of desire. But if you are doing the wrong work in your life, it can take away from your feeling of content and add dissatisfaction and frustration. This course will help you head in the right direction. HOW TO LOOK AT MINDFULNESS Mindfulness is a term that is used to describe many things. To some people, mindfulness means meditation. To other people, mindfulness means simply being aware of your thoughts and moods. The ladder definition of mindfulness is more widely applicable, and that's the one we will use in this course since everyone can and should be aware of their own moods, thoughts, and feelings. ARE YOUR THOUGHTS THE MAIN CAUSE OF HAPPINESS OR LACK OF HAPPINESS? We are with out thoughts every second of every hour. They set off chain reactions in not only our psychology, but also physiology. If we allow our thoughts to randomly dwell on negative things or if we allow biases to creep in, that might send us down the path of feeling unfulfilled, frustrated, or unhappy. But if we catch our thought patterns and actively work to reverse them, we can take the same reality, but frame it in a way that still makes sense to us, but at the same time works to our benefit and makes us feel better about ourselves - that can be truly transformative, and change feelings of frustration or unhappiness to happiness and fulfillment. MINDFULNESS STRATEGIES AFTER WE CATCH UNDESIRED THOUGHT PATTERNS We have three options after we 1) We can practice "radical acceptance" which is to make peace even with the harshest and most undesired realities. It's not something you'd choose from the outset, but it does help to deal with an already bad situation. 2) We can take ourselves out of situations that lead to the negative thoughts 3) We can reframe how we interpret various situations. For example, instead of thinking that you don't like your job and that you are frustrated to have to go there every day, you can think about it this way: you are lucky that you get to have a job. None of these work perfectly, but together, they can make a significant different in helping you find happiness and fulfillment in many different situations. PATH TO HAPPINESS When you practice mindfulness, you build a relationship with your inner life and your thoughts. You will gain a better understanding of what makes you happy. Once the vision of your happiness crystalizes, the path to getting there will become more clear. That will help you in your goal setting, and get you on your way to finding happiness and fulfillment.
