Next up in the list of important questions from philosophy for us to answer:

What is the “good life”?

Too bad it isn’t an election year, otherwise we would get the answer to this one every night on TV. (My attempt at a joke.)

As we look at what our goals should be, this one is probably the mostly directly applicable.

Defining the good life for ourselves gives us something to aim for. Something to visualize and create for ourselves.

Some things to think about as we define this for ourselves:

Where do you want to live?

What kind of home do you want?

What kind of family life do you want?

What kinds of leisure activities do you want to be doing?

Where do you want to be spending your time?

I am of the belief that each of us get to answer these questions for our self. As we answer these questions for our self, we don’t get to judge the answers others have chosen.

Our answers will determine our goals. We must set our sights on our version of the good life.

Now would be a good time to review your goals for this year and compare them against your answers to the questions about your good life. Need to make any adjustments?

Make it a great day.
