Today's episode is all about how to create a meaningful life.

Now, I know that is a big, big topic, but I think this is a very important discussion

to have.

I think this conversation needs to happen a lot more often.

And hopefully what we talk about today can help you start the conversation, both for yourself

and for the people that you love.

Now, the best framework that I've ever found comes from one of my favorite books of all

time. It's Victor Frankel's Man's Search for Meaning, this book right here. So if you're

not familiar with this book, you need to get it. You need to read it ASAP.

It's a memoir of Frankl's life and the spiritual lessons that he learned in order to survive

Nazi concentration camps during World War II.

This book is heartbreaking.

It is inspiring.

It is riveting.

And in my opinion, it is a must read.

Now one insight that I want to share right off the back.

According to Frankel, he believed that one component of well-being is based on a certain

degree of tension between what one has already accomplished and what one has yet to achieve.

So in other words, who you are today and who you hope to become tomorrow.

So if you're worried or ever have those thoughts that somehow you're a failure because

you haven't achieved all of your dreams quite yet, listen to me when I say this.

You are not a failure. That tension is a really good thing.
