Don Watkins

Presented at: Salem Center Events

Date: May 09, 2022

Virtually every college commencement, political oration, and self-help bestseller urges people to “serve a cause greater than yourself.” This advice, argues bestselling author Don Watkins, is not simply wrong, but deeply immoral. To live a moral and meaningful life requires total dedication to the pursuit of your own happiness. But what is happiness? How can you achieve it? And, if it is wrong to serve others, how should they be treated? Join us for a talk that will examine some of life’s most important questions–and present you with challenging new answers.
