There's more to life than being happy. People who lead the most meaningful lives have a far-reaching purpose. They forge relationships where they help themselves and others feel valued. They assemble their experiences into a coherent narrative. And they contribute to something bigger than themselves. Drawing on the latest research in positive psychology, along with insights from philosophers across the ages, Emily Esfahani Smith will share strategies from real people and companies on how to build a meaningful life. You’ll create a Meaningful Life Notebook where you can implement and record the results of the experiments you take to start pursuing a life filled with purpose. In the process, you’ll deepen your own life, and start to figure out how you can help others in the process.
Join Emily’s #FindYourMeaning challenge. Post a comment with a few words highlighting what makes life meaningful for you. It could be anything — from your relationships, to your faith, to your work, to a special memory that you cherish. Let’s share our stories of meaning to help one another lead more meaningful lives.
