Episode 84: THE MEANING AND PURPOSE OF CHALLENGING TIMES AND THE WAY THEY AFFECT ALL OUR LIVES

from The Survivor's Guide to Life · host Peter M. Bernstein, Phd

It is possible not only to survive during difficult times but to grow and emerge with greater meaning and purpose in life. First, we must be willing to look closely at ourselves and face our shortcomings and limitations. We must accept our losses and recognize and decompress our intense emotions without becoming driven by them. Next, by examining our priorities and values - the "tangibles" versus the "intangibles" - we can redirect our lives in more authentic and compassionate ways. We also need to explore the spiritual side of our lives and identify new directions for our calling in life.
