What Is Real Happiness?
In this video, psychologist Martin Seligman teaches the difference between the Pleasant Life, the Good Life, and the Meaningful Life. These are three very different ways to be happy. All are valid, but they’re very different.
As you start this weekend, watch the video and ask yourself the following questions:
- What is my perfect day? Be specific. Work to incorporate at least one “perfect” activity into your weekend.
- What am I grateful for right now?
- What can I do to increase my engagement in my community?
Have a happy weekend.

Hi Maria,
Inspiring. Thank you for pointing me to TED.com yet again. I always forget about the good stuff there.
One of Martin Seligman’s key ideas for the good life is to to get to the flow state by identifying your five highest strengths, and then recrafting your life such that you are using these as much as possible.
Something to think about!
