Someone once told me you can't go wrong invoking big names to bolster your content. So I'm invoking an old stand-by for this week's article: Aristotle.
Aristotle - and the Greeks, in general - did a lot of what we don't seem to do much of - thinking about their thinking.
Ari also came up with an idea that is foundational to personal success and happiness - a principle that eludes us more and more as we negotiate a helter-skelter, tweet-based culture.
It's another big word - eudaimonia.
Read the Full Article and find out what this twelve-cylinder word means - and then let me know your thoughts.
