NOTE

The Three Factors of a Good Life

In life, there are three essential factors that contribute to a good life. Firstly, happiness is crucial as it drives most of our actions. However, it is not the sole important factor. Secondly, meaning plays a significant role as individuals often engage in activities that provide a sense of purpose, even if it does not directly result in happiness. Lastly, the psychological rich life, which involves seeking variety and diversity, is another key aspect contributing to a fulfilling life. These three factors - happiness, meaning, and variety - often overlap but can also be pursued separately, leading individuals to make choices that may not directly result in increased happiness but instead enhance meaning or diversity in their lives. A balance of these three aspects is believed to be what constitutes a good life.
