I think those tend to work really well, but I'm sure as my

philosopher colleagues will point out and tear me apart.

You know, science has a lot of shortcomings.

And so then what I tend to find works incredibly well is adding a certain degree of spiritual practice to that.

And usually when we put those two things together, things work.

And the real proof point for me was when I started streaming, 10,000 people reached out to me in one month asking, hey, like, do you have room in your private practice?

And so I started to think about, okay, if this is a methodology –

then can it be taught?

So I started this coaching program and what we found in our pilot study of 1,453 people is that if you stick with the program for about 20 weeks, your sense of purpose increases by 68%.

I'd love to hear from my colleagues, but I think if someone asks me, what is the meaning of life?

I don't know.

But if someone says, I have no meaning, can you help me with that?

The answer is absolutely yes.

So what I think about is purpose is using something called factor analysis.

So if you ask someone, do you have direction in life?

Do you have purpose in life?

Is there meaning in life?

All three of those things cluster together to some thing.

Even being in control correlates with that.

So if you are in control of your life, your sense of purpose will increase.
