What does it mean to live a good life?

What does it mean to live a good life?

What makes life good?

Good relationships.

A job you like.

Challenging situations.

Experiences with loved ones.

Working on your hobbies.

Finding your passions.

Being nice to everyone you see.

Learning about the world.

Traveling.

Making friends.

Paying it forward.

Giving back.

Embracing failure.

Struggling through grief.

Spending more time on your hobbies.

Less on your phone.

More on the things that make you happy.

Less with the people that don’t.

Finding who you are.

Being your authentic self.

Being comfortable with being disliked.

Suffering through pain.

But coming out stronger on the other side.

Building a family.

Finding your purpose.

Being more obsessed with the process than the result.

Focusing on the effort, not the outcome.

Learning what enough means.

Having enough.

Meditating.

Spending time alone.

Spending time with your thoughts.

Understanding yourself.

Understanding your subconscious.

Not letting hate into your heart.

Letting grudges go.

Focusing less on the past and future.

More on the present.

Being where your feet are.

Enjoying the moment.

Taking initiative.

Being the person who reaches out.

The one who’s kind.

The one who shows up when life is hard.

The one who really cares.

The one who brings positive energy.

Who uplifts people.

Who brings inspiration and joy to life.

The one who accomplishes.

Who succeeds in the goals he wants to achieve.

Not the ones other people want for him.

The one who dictates his life.

Who follows his own path.

The one who stands alone.

Who doesn’t follow the crowd.

Who is different.

Who refuses to be like everyone else.

Who blazes his own trail.

Who creates.

Creates his own path.

Creates his own destiny.

Creates his own world.

Creates his own life.

What does it mean to live a good life?

I don’t know.
