What do you believe makes for a good life?
What do you want to do to achieve it?

Eudaimonia.

A life of eudaimonia is a life of striving. It's a life of pushing yourself to your limits and finding success. A eudaimonistic life is full of the happiness that comes from achieving something really difficult, rather than just having it handed to you. Choosing to live this way means I'm never done improving, I'm never to a point where I can just coast. I am constantly setting new goals and working to develop new muscles. It also means I'll face disappointments and failures. Eudaimonia doesn't mean a life of cupcakes and rainbows, it the sweet pleasure of sinking into bed after an absolutely exhausting day. It's the satisfaction of knowing I've accomplished a lot and I've pushed myself to be the very best person I could be.

I'm quite far off achieving this but hope to start right after my goddamn A Levels.
