The simple answer is:
Whatever makes you happy.

Gotta start with health for both you and your family. If you don't have that nothing else really matters.
Given how much we all spend working every week, I think its important to have a job you love, even at the expense of money.

I think this is one of the most important aspects. Almost as important as family and friends. If you wake up everyday to something you hate, life sucks.
Wake up to something you want to get up for and life is a lot better. Add friends, family, girlfriend/boyfriend into that mix, along with beer and sports and debauchery, and i'd say that's a pretty good mix.

There isn't any question that it's family.
I've known and still know those who have oodles of cash and a job they spend a great deal of time at their job(I assume they like it a lot) and they aren't even remotely happy. I've known those who indulged in many different things and they always just seemed to searching for something new.
Never fails but the happiest most contented people I know are very family orientated and that is what they value. A job is a way to make money--I've had ones that I liked and ones that I liked less but made very little difference to my life in general. That you need a job you love is a complete fallacy. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt but your life based on your job?---Hmmmmm.

Don't ask questions you don't want to know the answer to.

What do you think are the essential elements or the minimum requirements of a good life?
Caffeine?
Hedonism?
Family?
MONEY?
Is there a system of values or "correct system of values" that one must abide by to live the "Good Life"?
|
For me all these things are good and sometimes great but they're often temporary. If I don't have peace within, they don't satisfy. If I do have this peace, I don't really need a lot of the other.

You NEED to be regular, or else everyday will be ruined. Bran works wonders.

Health (as Jiri said) and a passion for something - a reason to make you WANT to get out of bed everyday and focus on that 'thing' that you're passionate about. Once you've found that, everything else seems to fall into place.
