Martin Seligm The Three Paths To Happiness

The three paths to happiness according to Martin Seligman is the pleasant life, the good life, and the meaningful life. All these paths help to a successful life of happiness. Without one path to follow many people would live unhappy lives. The one that most resembles my perspective on living a good life is “The Good Life”. Once I am doing something I really enjoy, I can spend hours doing it. I love to exercise and I can exercise multiple times throughout the day. Exercising helps me to keep healthy as well as active. Many people are not content when they are doing certain things, but for me I submerge myself into what I do and drown out all the negative energy surrounding me.
After taking the survey my top three strengths were love

of learning, teamwork, and fairness. These qualities help to build positive relationships in my life. The love that I have for learning allows me to take on new challenges with a fresh perspective. I’m not quick to pass judgement based on prior knowledge, instead I acquire new knowledge and then assess the situation. After I acquired the new information, I can give a proper solution the problem. My next strength which is teamwork allows me to be a team player. Instead of developing a plan and trying to bring forth an execution of that plan all alone, I work with a team to do so. Lastly, my final strength is fairness. I am not a person who picks a side based on prior relations or engagements. I believe in equality and if something is unfair I’m more than willing to speak up about it.
