And what a lot of the researchers on meaning say is that this moment only has meaning because of what it means in the future.” [04:58]“You don't have to commit to something for the rest of your life. But like, what do you want to commit to for the next three to five years? Like, what are you going to start really investing in?” [17:55]“Journaling is just a way for you to actually structurally reframe anything that happened and then turn negative events into positive growth.” [22:26]“I think it's a big aspect of emotional freedom and emotional maturity, is just realizing you're the only person who's comprehending your own experience, and so you get to define it however you want.” [42:45]Follow Dr. Benjamin Hardy:Website: https://benjaminhardy.com/Twitter: https://bit.ly/3I93R76 Facebook: https://bit.ly/3MOpWLF Instagram: https://bit.ly/3Ie5gsS Medium: https://bit.ly/3tSIQZi Preorder Be Your Future Self Now: https://amzn.to/3q4EzRk
