I suspect that you are confusing 'soul - animating principle', with 'soul - 
mind' there (daimon).
The distinction between soul, spirit ad mind has always been knotty.
I always used to argue that 'eudaimonia' - a core concept of the Greeks, should 
not be translated as 'happiness' but simply as what it is - a state of being in 
'good-spirits'. A much more useful concept.
