So I think the primary way is what you just shared is being able to plug into a community in some way, but also think about what your unique gifts are and try and do some of those sorts of things on a regular basis. Here's one other thing I mentioned earlier. Very few people have had a word of encouragement an entire week. Okay. that are adults primarily, but also a lot of kids.

Maybe once a week you have a time plugged in for 30 minutes where you just send positive messages to people in your life. Could be a text message, could be a handwritten note. I had a friend of mine I met in high school. I went to visit him in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

I was speaking at Kellogg's in front of their headquarters demanding they get the dyes and the chemicals out of our cereal and food supply. But while I was up there, I saw a friend from high school I hadn't seen since his wedding 18 years ago. And after seeing him, he wrote me a handwritten note of how much my friendship meant to him, even after we hadn't seen each other that long.

And it was so meaningful because handwritten notes are so rare today. I mean, like, I'm going to keep it because it was just that meaningful. And so just things like that, that you could just schedule once a week for even 30 minutes can radically improve the lives of others.

Yeah, it makes me think of two things. I want to talk about self-awareness and then something actually very different. But I think they're both to your point. The other one is loneliness. Now, we live in a culture where a lot of people talk about goal setting.

And I'm a big goal setter, and I know you are too, like casting a vision for your life, setting a goal, creating a strategic plan that's powerful. But when you look at the ancient spiritual texts, the Tanakh or the Torah or the Bible, or you look at a lot of the Buddhist or Taoist philosophy and monks, they don't talk about goal setting almost ever. They talk primarily about self-awareness.

Goal setting is where you want to go. Awareness is where are you right now? And you can't truly get to where you want to go unless you know where you are now. So think about if you're driving in a map, you're saying, Hey, I want to go to, I want to go up. I want to go down to the Maya, the Florida keys, wherever it is. Okay. Well, What if you don't know where you currently are?
