New study reveals key to flourishing: balance between happiness and self-realization
The study looked at what makes people feel happy and fulfilled. They found that both feeling good (like happiness) and doing meaningful things (like helping others) are important for flourishing. People nowadays focus more on relationships and personal growth for happiness, rather than ancient ideas like wisdom or courage. The study showed that having a balance of both feeling good and doing meaningful things leads to flourishing. This research suggests that understanding how happiness and personal growth work together can help us live better lives.
