It encompasses various schools of thought and has helped the author gain a new perspective on their past and future. The author shares valuable lessons they've learned, such as the transformative power of learning, the importance of listening and offering different perspectives rather than providing solutions, the natural desire to nurture others, the value of being open to experiences, and the significance of aligning goals with personal values. The author's journey included setting 30-day goals, joining a happiness accountability group, writing a book, enrolling in a positive psychology course, and discovering the importance of values through the VIA Character Strengths survey.
