Quotable moments:
27:28: “We've got creator, self, spouse, children, extended family, other people outside of your family and things. Those are our seven key relationships, and I believe they come in that order of priority if there are some that are missing or not.”
28:39: “I hear people talk about God. But it all has this kind of unifying meaning of a higher power that creates purpose. And if we understand our source, It helps us to navigate all of the complexities of our life because it gives us meaning and purpose.”
32:30 “And this is why there are so many different religions and other philosophical practices out there as people try to gain purpose and meaning for life. You know, those classic questions, why am I here and where did I come from and where am I going? Right? I mean there are existential questions that I think drive all of the other key relationships.”
35:09 “And it's so interesting to me that two people can come together, love each other enough to reproduce, and then. When they split, there's a process that happens in the mind. It comes from cognitive dissonance.”
37:23 “So you get yourself in a good place, and then you step up to creation mode with that energy of gratitude for the rich, abundant marriage that you have. You take that energy to creation mode. Now how can we up upgrade this?”
