Yeah, I think that's right.
And I'm just, you know, here are some accounts of what benefiting w oneself is.
We can think of it as like benefiting yourself as trying to attain your own well-being or your self-interest or what's good for you or your good.
These are all different expressions we could use for the same thing.
But what is it?
What is good for you or for someone?
What is someone's good?
What is their well-being?
What is their self-interest?
Well, one account is it's whatever gives them the most pleasure, right?
That's hedonism about self-interest.
Another account is that it's
fulfilling all of their present desires, or maybe fulfilling as many of their desires over time as possible, or the greatest proportion of their desires.
other kinds of accounts try to give a a list of things.
They think they know what's good for human beings in general and you're a human being and y as many of the things on this list you can tick off, or the proportion of the things on the list that you can tick off, uh, that's your well being.
And I think those are the three
uh or three of the main categories of them.
Also, this last one sometimes run together with the previous one, fulfilling your nature as a human being.
So there's the idea that there's kinda certain
thing that we're meant to mature into or realize our capabilities and the extent to which you do that is the extent to which you have well being.
