: Three Attitndes to Life
As a human being you have the choice af three basic allitudes toward life. You may approach
kfe with the philosophy of the vegetable, in which case vour Life will cansist in being bo,
cating. érinking, sleeping, meturing, matisg, growing olë, and dying. Of human vegerabks
there is no end, and heirs is à calm contentment undisturbed by the problems of this world.
They require neilher books nor teaching, since veuetation 15 the be-all and end-all of the
human vegetable’s life. The same Providence that protects puppy dogs and earthworms
watches aver their destiny and proviées their simple wants in life. l'hey vegetate at the lowest
levei consistent with human!ty and as they never read books, we necd not disturb their placid
existences by useless instruction in the art of living.
The second basic atlitude is to look at life &s if it were a business. À great many s0-called
successful men and woren believe that life is a business, and they arrange their conduet anë
behavior accordinylx. 1] vou believe that life is a busiñess, vour first question of life, naturally
is, “What do I get out of it?” ané your first reaction to any new experience is, “How much is it
worth for me”? In a worlû based on this attitude, happiness becomes a metter of successfil
competition, and this is {he method of choice ir the animel world. The stronger eats de
weaker, The firtest, in point of personal nower, survives at ‏غطا‎ expense of the weaker. Life
becomes a matter of aggressive offense end successful defense. Every animal shiñs for
himself, an living altemates belwcen savage victory and abjec: defeat.
The great majority of kuman beings today ook at life as if it werc a business. Their basic
philosophy is one of aggressive competition and personal elicieney. Our skyscrapers, ur
‘rush hours’, our super-motor-cæs, ard “high-pressure’ salesmanship are all the results of
personal competition. So alsu arc slavery, war, conflict, despolism, scrfdom, and the
exploitation of smaller rations by their more powerful neighbors. The belief that might is
right is the direct result of a strictly business attitude roward life, The aggressive egoism of
the “might is right” school leañs ‏ما‎ a varicty of nervous breakdowns which preclude
heppiness, and anyone who has watched the struggle for personal prestige and power in à
family or in a business office knows how disastrous the busiress attitude is in the private lives
of men and women. And anyone who hes read the history of the world must likewise be
impressed with ‘he failure of the “What do we gel out ‏إن‎ 17” school rational politics.
We are too prone to overlank the terrific costs ‏لله‎ the wrecks of the competitive syslem to
individual and to State, The competitive system in lile does not kiïl outright, as in the animal
world, where ils success is greater. Applieë to human life it mains, it cripples, it makes
dependent. IL brevds crime, perversion ané insanity, the costs of which weigh keavily on
victor and victim alike. Any attitude toward life wkich las such an impressive list of failurcs
to its credit, in ie history of tke word, is hardly lkely ta leed to individual happiness when

lives acither with the placid eyes of the human vegetahle nor with the greedy cyes of fhe
aggressive, sel-sceking busincssman.
The third attitude toward life is the approach of the artist. Ilere lie uaderying philosophy 5
“What can ] put into it”? The basic relatian of the individual to his {cliow-men, is one of cn-
oneration and common sense. If we have recourse to history again as a test of the validity of
this attitude, we find as confirmation of this point of view that history remembers best those
who have contributed most richly to the welfare of their feilow-men. And when vre examine
the lives of these great contributors we find that their genius wes névor onc of aggressive,
self-secking, but onc of contribution ta the welfare of their fellows. The more wc investigate
and the more we learn about Living, the more we became convinced hat the artistic attitude is
the only ane which is consistent with human hapyiness.
