Michael Soupios and Panos Mourdoukoutas wrote a book

entitled “The Ten Golden Rules on Living a Good Life” kung
saan sila nag based sa “ancient wisdom from the Greek
philosophers on living the good life” at they mapped it into
modern times. So it yung summary na sinulat nila , kung saan
nila kinuha mula sa isang Forbes Article na isinulat ni Dr.
Mourdoukoutas:

1. Living life is about examining life through reason, its

nature’s greatest gift to us humanity. So The importance
of reason in sensing and examining life is evident in all
phases of life from the infant who strains to explore its
new surroundings to the grandparent or mga magulang
natin na who actively reads and assesses the headlines of
our daily paper in our lives. At ang rason kung bakit
magpaparticipate tayu sa ating buhay, ay dahil bilang
isang tao kailangan din natin mag isip , to appraise, and
explore the world, discovering new sources of material
and spiritual pleasure.

2. Ang susi to resisting the hardship and discord that intrude

upon every human life, is to cultivate a certain attitude
toward adversity based on the critical distinction between
those things we are able to control versus those which are
beyond our capacity to manage.Sa madaling salita, while
we cannot control all of the outcomes we seek in life, we
certainly can control our responses to these outcomes and
herein lies our potential for a life that is both happy and
fulfilled.

3. Friendship cannot be acquired in the market place, but

must be
nurtured and treasured in relations imbued with trust and
amity.Para sa atin it is an indispensable aspect of the life
worth living because one cannot speak of a completed
human identity, or of true happiness, without the
associative bonds called “friendship.” Walang sapat na
kayamanan, katayuan, o kapangyarihan ang
makakatumbas ng isang buhay na walang tunay na
kaibigan.

4. Avoid shallow and transient pleasures. Kaya minsan

pananatilihin nating simple ang ating buhay. To Seek
calming pleasures that contribute to peace of mind. Kasi
ang kasiyahan is the chief good of life,pero hindi lahat ng
kasiyahan ay magkapareha meron ding natagumpayan
nila by a feeling of emptiness and psychological pain and
suffering. Ang kasiyahan na ito ay essential for a well-
lived life.
5. Resist any external force that might delimit thought and
action;; stop deceiving yourself, believing only what is
personally useful and convenient;; complete liberty
necessitates a struggle within, a battle to subdue negative
psychological and spiritual forces that preclude a healthy
existence;; self--mastery requires ruthless candor.Ang
halimbawa nlng dito ay yung mga Pasenyte na niniwala
sila na magagamot nila ang kanilang sarili gamit ang
alternative medicine which do not involve the restrictive
lifestyle of conventional methods.

6. Live life in harmony and balance. Even good things,

pursued or attained without moderation, can become a
source of misery and suffering.

7. Approach yourself with honesty and thoroughness;;

maintain a kind of spiritual hygiene;; stop the blame--
shifting for your errors and shortcomings. So maging
honest lang tayu and be prepared to assume responsibility
and accept consequences.

8. Prosperity by itself is not a cure-all against an ill-led life

and may be a source of dangerous foolishness. Money is a
necessary but not a sufficient condition for the good life,
for happiness and wisdom. Pero sa ibang tao ang
Prosperity has different meanings. una, prosperity is about
the accumulation of wealth in the form of money, real
estate and equities. ikalawa, prosperity is about the
accumulation of power and the achievement of status that
comes with appointment to business or government
positions.

9. Evildoing is a dangerous habit, a kind of reflex too

quickly resorted to and too easily justified that has a
lasting and damaging effect upon the quest for the good
life. Harming others claims two victims the receiver of the
harm, and the victimizer, the one who does harm.

10. Kindness to others is a good habit that supports and

reinforces the quest for the good life. Helping others
bestows a sense o satisfaction that has two beneficiaries
the
beneficiary, the receiver of the help, and the benefactor,
the one who provides the help.
