Overview
Do you know anyone who's truly living āThe Good Lifeā? Traditionally, philosophers have seen it as an equation: The Good Life = Happiness + Meaning. But, if itās really that simple, why don't more of us achieve that truly āgoodā life? Ā Emerging research in psychological and philosophical circles is showing us that there is more to the good life than the currentāand even ancientāconversation suggests, and the results are exhilarating.Ā
Ā
Researchers have identified the missing constant in this equation as psychological richness. Lorraine Besser, a founding investigator in these studies, calls this āThe Interesting.ā
Ā
Put simply, āThe Interestingā is an experience that captivates you, engages you, helps you let go of whatever is holding you back from fully engaging in the world around you. Itās different for everyone, and everyone can obtain and strengthen the skills necessary to access it. The agency we have in making our lives psychologically rich is both empowering and exciting.

Ā Perfect for devotees of Ryan Holliday, Katherine May, and Gretchen Rubin, Besser's groundbreaking manifesto marries a thoughtful approach with realāworld applications. She offers delightful stories, tools, and mindsets we can use to ākeep it interestingā as we reach toward fuller, more satisfying lives.
