Philosophy of happyness : Aristotle (3/3)
“The happy life is thought to be one of excellence; now an excellent life requires exertion, and does not consist in amusement. If Eudaimonia, or happiness, is activity in accordance with excellence[ ….] and this will be that of the best thing in us.” (Aristotle)
Eudaimonia is greek and means something like „to have a good demon on your side“. Happyness is for him not the luck of a moment - like finding money on the street – nor the blissed feeling we get from sensations we all are seeking – sex, sugar, altcoins pumpin and other kicks.
You have to be active to get the good demon. But why are so many people active in their jobs and still not happy? Because you have to be active according to the plan your soul is determined.
