stoicism

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'to live well' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'sitcom is about' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'sitcom'+'is'='sitcomis'
'sitcomis' anagrammed gives 'STOICISM'.

'how' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stoicism that I've seen before include "Endurance of hardship without complaint" , "Patient acceptance of suffering and misfortune" , "Uncomplaining fortitude" , "phlegm?" , "Resignation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
