Shownotes

Nick and Hari delve into the thought-provoking book "Man's Search for Meaning" by Victor Frankl. They discuss the power of finding meaning in life and how it relates to mindfulness, hope, and resilience. Drawing on personal anecdotes and real-life examples, they explore the concept of reframing suffering, choosing our responses to external circumstances, and the role of purpose in our lives. 

Key topics we discussed:

  • Selling widgets for $1,000,000 – and how every rejection is £10 closer to a sale
  • The subjectivity of the Meaning of Life
  • Blue Zones and Ikigai
  • Purpose for energy and post-retirement fulfillment
  • Exercise in SAS training
  • Logotherapy and the power of labelling
