Detailed explanation-1: -Summary. According to a philosophical commonplace, Aristotle defined human beings as rational animals.
Detailed explanation-2: -[1] Actually Aristotle would have said “Man is the rational animal.” He was an avowed sexist. But I shall be glossing over that fact in these notes.
Detailed explanation-3: -According to Aristotle, happiness consists in achieving, through the course of a whole lifetime, all the goods-health, wealth, knowledge, friends, etc.-that lead to the perfection of human nature and to the enrichment of human life. This requires us to make choices, some of which may be very difficult.
Detailed explanation-4: -Self-acceptance is defined as “an individual’s acceptance of all of their attributes, positive or negative.” [1] When we’re self-accepting, we embrace every part of ourselves, not just the “positive” things! Self-acceptance is unconditional-you can recognize weaknesses, but still fully accept yourself.
