MUST KNOW Knowledge: Defeat Vice & Model Virtue - The Golden Mean, 7 Deadly Sins, 7 Heavenly Virtues

Mental Models of Virtue and Vice. In this video we are going to cover mental models of virtue and vice as we examine the models of the 7 Deadly Sins and their opposite, the 7 Heavenly Virtues. We will introduce the idea of Integrative Thinking and we will see how it compliments Aristotle's Virtue Theory. We will also explore the abstract nature of polarity and synthesis as it relates to virtues and vices, and of course we will explore what the 7 Deadly sins and 7 Heavenly Virtues are and how we can benefit from this knowledge. Be sure to watch until the end to see how we can even apply the 80-20 principle towards virtue habit selection.
