AUTHOR: Peter Anthony TITLE: What is the good life? DATE: 9/18/2007 ----- BODY:

"The good life is using your signature strengths every day to produce authentic happiness and abundant gratification," according to Martin Seligman in Authentic Happiness. He argues there are six core virtues - 1. Wisdom & Knowledge 2. Courage 3. Love & Humanity 4. Justice 5. Temperance 6. Spirituality & Transcendence - and we should use our signature strengths to work towards developing all or some of these virtues. That's what produces authentic happiness. What isn't related to happiness is wealth, physical attractiveness or health. Find out more about Seligman's work at www.authentichappiness.org
