The pursuit of the "best" is the problem. How about "adequate"?

- mathgeek 12y agoAgreed. There's also a huge red flag in the mindset that I saw as I was reading that lifestyle choice. We're all going to die some day, which throws another huge strike against pursuing the best above enjoying life. Add in the pipe dream of living forever that is being sold these days (just as it has been many times before), and it only makes "living well" seem more and more difficult. Assuming we can even somehow define living well... tldr: Find what makes you feel content. Be willing to stop doing other things.
