Hey everyone, here’s Peter’s and my dialogue from a couple weeks ago — topics include:

* superficial vs more profound concepts of happiness

* the concept of self-esteem and its components

* Greek mythology

One of the things I enjoy about these is I’ll sometimes have some significant insight during the call itself, usually as a result of something Peter is saying….

Like in this one, the Greek concept of eudaimonia (roughly speaking, “happiness”) meaning something like “being well-starred” rather than simply “feeling good” … in combination with the related idea that a good life can only really be evaluated as such after a person’s death … struck me as really profound.

Seems to me there are plenty of significant implications there.

Anyway, we’ll be back with another probably in a couple weeks or so!

Resolving anger issues requires respect for the part of the self that's getting angry, and channels for one's strength or toughness.
