I gained new perspectives through many stories and experiences. This course has helped me overcome from a phase of disappointments to a phase of looking towards new opportunities that it would definitely add value to my future endeavors.

My rating for the course is 4.6[ fractional rating not available]

Highly recommended, especially for young adults!

I liked the storytelling style of teaching used in this course.

Thank you, U Penn, Wharton, and Prof Richard Shell!

I enjoyed this course and recommend it highly. I just wish the instructions for the exercises were clearer...but I have to admit I had many distractions and other things going, so I could have done better.

Thank you Richard Sir for such a lovely course and for teaching us some of the best life lessons. This will definitely provide more meaning and purpose to my life. Thanks a lot! :)

Interesting but a little too squishy and personal for my taste. It leads to some helpful introspection but not anything I can directly apply to my career and life.

This course was very interesting and contained valuable material. The professor was a little difficult to understand at times, as he slurred his words.

It was a helpful course; would be even better if we received direct contact from Professor Shell, but the content I learned was valuable.

Me gusto mucho el curso, me hubiera gustado que sea un poco mas practico y no tanto teórico, pero en general creo que es un gran curso.

This was a very good course for understanding yourself and how to maintain success. From Emerson Overton

I just audited this course. It happens to be a good course on how to have a happy life.

Thank you.

This course provides enlightment and basic structures to organize personal thoughts of success.

I like the way this course is built and want to opt for more courses like this.

The course was very thought provoking and very well presented. Thank you

Great learning experience! changed my perspective of success!!

Healthy and valuable.

Excellent content!

I found concentrating challenging after hearing my professor left our country to avoid the Viet Nam War. Especially after knowing his father was a General and he was raised in a military family. I was raised in a military family and feel very close to Republican Patriotism. At least your father could forgive your lack of patriotism when so many proud young brave American names were listed every night on the news of the deaths taken in the Viet Nam War.

The course could share a miscellaneous of texts and videos outside the Coursera community

That's a good course but some videos are not enough clear.

Interesting, but not deep enough, maybe.

Lovely course.

Ok course.

When I am taking a course from Wharton school, and from adult learning perspective, more is expected than simply small lectures and few activities. Some areas that I see this may be improved...

1) Latest evidence based support (few articles/papers) on achievement and satisfaction (Success both parameters). This is widely discussed field as subjective and objective career success.

2) In addition to SAME - better instruments/scale those are easily available online.

3) Some better links to career related articles from Harvard/California management review or organization dynamics on the topics covered.

Some interesting points for thought, but there is also a lot of stating the obvious (like the trade-off between chasing success versus feeling content with what you have). If you have already set reasonable goals (such as "getting a promotion at work") this course won't help you make a realistic plan of achieving it.

Slow. Drawn out. Ineffecient. Wordy.
