The Good Life by The RealTime Podcast Network is hosted by Sean Murray. It studies the values, virtues, and practices that contribute to leading a meaningful, flourishing life. The show focuses on the most important investment we all make - investing our time wisely to get the most out of life. Join Sean on a journey for the life well-lived.
Sean is the founder and CEO of RealTime Performance, a company that provides leadership and organization development services to major corporations.
On today's show, I talk with Edith Hall, the author of Aristotle’s Way: How Ancient Wisdom Can Change Your Life, and she is a Professor at King’s College in London.
We talk about Aristotle, one of the earliest and greatest thinkers to take up the subject of the Good Life. He has had a major impact, especially in the West, on happiness and how we can live a flourishing life, but his writing can also be dry and tough going for the average reader.
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:
- Why it’s better to think of Happiness as something we do, not something we are
- Why doing the right thing ethically is so important to happiness
- How we all have a unique potential based on our talents
- Why achieving our potential – the best version of ourselves - is so important
- How to make better decisions
- How to handle bad luck
- The role that habits play in achieving the Good Life
