Flourishing is About More than Happiness

Today’s wisdom is from Flourish by Martin Seligman.

Martin reminds us: “Flourishing is about more than happiness. It’s about meaning, relationships, and accomplishment.”

Here’s how to flourish today:

1. Focus on PERMA. Seligman’s framework includes:

  • Positive Emotion: Cultivate gratitude and joy.
  • Engagement: Do work that absorbs your attention.
  • Relationships: Build deep, meaningful connections.
  • Meaning: Align your actions with your purpose.
  • Achievement: Celebrate small wins.

2. Cultivate Hope. Seligman tells us: “Hope is the belief that your future can be better, and you have the power to make it so.”

3. Build Resilience. “Adversity is an opportunity to grow stronger.” That's Seligman’s direct quote.
