You cannot be anything you want to be - but you can be a whole lot more of who you already are.

Wellbeing is about the combination of our love for what we do each day, the quality of our relationships, the security of our finances, the vibrancy of our physical health, and the pride we take in what we have contributed to our communities. Most importantly, it’s about how these five elements interact.

Doing for others may be the only way to create lasting well-being.

The absence of high-quality friendships is bad for your health, spirits, productivity, and longevity.

Buying experience such as going out to dinner or taking a vacation increases our own wellbeing and the wellbeing of others. Experiences last while material purchases fade.

What works for one persons needs is almost always very different from the next.

When we build on our strengths and daily successes — instead of focusing on failures — we simply learn more.
