Topic: The Role of Magnificent Goals in Happiness
A "magnificent goal" is a long-term, ambitious goal that you set because of its personal meaningfulness to you. Setting and pursuing such goals is important for building and sustaining happiness. In the Rational Goal-Setting Course, you learn how to vet long-term goals and how to make consistent, objective progress on such goals. In this class, we'll discuss how pursuing these goals this way — or not — will affect your happiness. This includes:
- The role of committed action in developing passion
- The role of problem solving in developing resilience
- The role of prioritization in reducing suffering
