Pleasure Versus Happiness
Manage episode 510010009 series 3327267
What if happiness isn’t about feeling good, but about living well? We unpack a sharper definition of joy inspired by Mark Manson’s newsletter and traced back to Jefferson and Aristotle, drawing a clean line between hedonic hits that fade and eudaimonic fulfillment that lasts. Along the way, we test the modern myth that constant smiles equal a good life and offer a practical lens you can use to plan your weekend, your holidays, and the next year with intention.
And, as a special FREE bonus, I want to give you my "6 Journal Prompts To Coach Yourself To A Better Life In 6 Days!"
These prompts are perfect if you:
🎯 Feel lost in direction.
📉 Battle feelings of inadequacy or constant comparison.
😕 Experience restlessness.
📆 Find goal-setting or motivation challenging.
😐 Simply feel 'meh'.
Designed to dismantle obstacles, reshape your mindset, and cement unwavering confidence, these prompts are scarce gems in a sea of generic advice. 🚧🧠
