The requirements of a happy life...

[BadsnakeUK]

This is a thread for people to add some of the things a man needs in his life to be happy and fulfilled. For me they are:

1. A challenging and rewarding job with scope for continued promotion
2. Intellectual stimulation - never stop learning!
3. Regular physical exercise - at least 3 times a week
4. Music - playing and listening
5. Martial arts - a way of competing and getting gradually better at something
6. Meditation
7. A good social life
8. Good family relations
9. Enough money to be comfortable and be able to do the above

Feel free to add your own...

I would put 8,7,9 and numbers 1,2,3. Rest seem good.

Well..you appeared to have omitted women from that list...

But overall, that pretty much sums it up for me.

I might add some activity in which we share what we have learned with others too.
And gaining insight from a postive mentor.


Good job.

I noticed the same thing Interceptor did. If you live a life without women, you might as well be gay.

Another thing that is missing is laughter. A life without laughing is not happy at all.

Yeah I deliberately didn't put women on the list. Not because I'm gay :crackup: , but because they come and go and can't be relied upon to make you happy. What I'm trying to establish is the things a man needs besides women that will make his life good regardless of whatever other sh*t comes his way.

Mine are in no particular order BTW.

Any others you can think of?
