When I made this list for the first time, laughing with my best friend ended up being number two on my list. If you were asking what my favorite activities are, laughing with my best friend would have not made the list. It wouldn't have come to me that way.

So what I tell people is you want to massively increase the quality of your life, make a top 10 list of your 10 favorite feelings and say no to everything that's not on the top 10 list. Because why would you waste time on like your 27th favorite activity or favorite feeling when you could actually go get more of the top 10?

If you're trying to go for like quality of life, that's a really simple metric. It's a really simple way to sort of like map things out.

I got random funny stories as we're talking. So this is just random, but so I opened at the biggest, biggest business conference in Europe for Obama. And the guy who was interviewing Obama on stage, I think we were in Sweden. I want to say it was the guy who used to run IKEA. I could be wrong. It might have been a different company.

But, you know, saunas are like the natural national culture once you get into like Sweden, Norway. Oh, yeah. Right. The guy spent the first 10 minutes of the interview with Obama. Mind you, 75,000 people in the like we're in like a stadium. And then there are like millions watching online. He's got Obama for, I don't know, half an hour.

The first 10 minutes for trying to get convinced Obama to take a sauna with him. It was the funniest thing I've ever seen was trying to watch a president get out of like getting into a sauna with some strange dude he's never met before. Especially if you're not, don't grow up in a sauna culture. Like, hey, let's go take a sauna together is not really the line you want out of a president.

I mean, I just found that like laughing with my best friend. I also found there were a couple of things on my list that I was like, Oh, give us some examples. Um, well, I mean, so here's, here's the biggest frame for me. And this was the biggest, the number one on my list was, was powder skiing. And here's what really blew my mind about this.

This is sort of one of the things that led me to start looking flow is very involved in successful age. So like everybody who studied flow, including, you know, one of my mentors, but the end of their life, his career, his work, everybody's working on this adult development in the second half of your life. flow is one of the big drivers of adult development. So it's how we do this successfully.

So that's where this knowledge came from. But years ago, I made this list and number one was powder skiing. And I realized at the time, great powder days show up seven times a year. And, or maybe they show up 10 times a year, but I only managed to like get to the mountain six or seven times a year. So let's say I got there seven times a year.
