Hello and welcome to Being Well, I'm Forest Hanson.

If you're new to the podcast, this is where we explore the practical science of last and

well-being.

And if you've listened before, welcome back.

Today we have the second of two episodes dedicated to the ten things that we can't live without.

If you've spent some time just about anywhere on the internet, you've probably run into one

of these videos where somebody explores the five things they can't live without.

And most of the time these things are really things that it would be pretty easy to live

without, like Rolex or a latte-fomer or whatever else some celebrity is on at that particular

moment.

But there are truly some things that it would be really hard to live without in this life.

So in these episodes, we're taking this concept and we're applying it to ourselves.

The key psychological skills in our strengths are maybe even ideas or big concepts that

Rick and I each think that it would be very challenging for us to live without.

In the first episode, we talked about benevolence, patience, curiosity, self-regulation and grit.

And today we're going to be exploring five more.

So dad, what do you think about this?

I love that we're talking about this.

Okay, you, what's your number three?

Okay, number three for me, this has a very fancy name.

It's going to sound very psychological.

It's really basic.
