The Importance of Mattering in Life
Feeling valued and having the opportunity to add value are crucial for a good life. When we feel like we don't matter, it can lead to discouragement and negative consequences. Mattering is an essential need for humans, and it fuels our health, happiness, and purpose. Neglecting the need to matter can result in joining extremist groups or experiencing suicidal thoughts. On the other hand, engaging in acts that fulfill our need to matter in healthy and meaningful ways can have positive effects. Cultivating mattering in our own lives and communities can lead to a good life.
