David Wells on Feeling Good

David Wells on Feeling Good: "Feeling good about yourself is not the same thing as actually being good. In fact, people often feel good about themselves in moments when they should not." - The Courage to Be Protestant

I found this interesting video on positive psychology that is different from most "self-help" models of psychology:

http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/martin_seligman_on_the_state_of_psychology.html

The psychologist argues that in the testing he has done, there is very little correlation between the instantateous type of happiness that comes from instant gratification and true life-long happiness that comes from a life of meaning. I thought it was very interesting that even pscyhology is realizing that happiness is beyond pleasure.
