About Me

I am a 27 year old white male living in the American Midwest. I am a lifelong learner, current university student, and work part-time in customer service. I am interested in the conscious pursuit of happiness as a way of life. This blog is a way for me to catalog my thoughts, share my interests and hopefully communicate something to other people similarly interested.

Reading List: Authentic Happiness

I'm currently reading Authentic Happiness by Martin E.P. Seligman. There's a lot to take in, but one of the things I find the most interesting (and fun!) so far is the inclusion of questionnaires about happiness in the text and on the companion website Authentic Happiness , hosted by University of Pennsylvania. I'm a huge fan of most psychometrics tests and quizzes (more on that later) and even if you aren't, the questionnaires about happiness are short and sweet. Definitely a useful tool for living the Good Life.
