The Good Life

The Good Life, according to Martin Seligman’s framework, is using our signatures strengths as frequently as possible in the realms of work, love, and parenting, with the aim of living a life filled with Authentic Happiness (the name of his book) and abundant gratification.

That process must begin with knowing yourself and your signature strengths. Aka developing a strong and clear core. Who am I? What am I best at? Where do I shine? What do I love to do? What character strengths are most core to who I am? Write and get clarity. Then strengthen those muscles and apply them consistently toward your highest callings – whether work, love, or parenting. Rinse and repeat.
