You bring up a good point about moderation.

Though I'm by no means a huge Platonist or Aristotelian, the Greeks managed to figure this sort of thing out 2000 years ago.

If we are to say the primary goal of life is happiness, that is to say a full, well rounded flourishing life, then one is indeed inherently bound to set out to fulfill that goal. Aristotle's prescription was to act virtuously in accordance with reason. That is to say understand and calibrate yourself to live within extremes.

And this is applied to all aspects of life.

Just something your post brought to mind.
