Description
The Good-Enough Life by Avram Alpert explores how our pursuit of greatness can lead to stress, anxiety and social inequality. By examining the consequences of this competitive social order, Alpert reveals an alternative way of life - one that prioritises sufficiency over excellence. This book argues that a good-enough life is not only possible but also necessary for creating a more harmonious society. Alpert shows how by letting go of our need to be among the wealthiest and most powerful, we can find renewed meaning and purpose in our lives. By working together to cultivate a good-enough life for all, we can build a more equitable and sustainable world. Ultimately, The Good-Enough Life is not about achieving some mythical ideal but about creating a society that values decency and sufficiency for all.
