A Wonderful Life – Insights on Finding a Meaningful Life

This year has stretched many to their limits, some to ponder… what’s the point? Today’s guest is Frank Martela, PhD, a philosopher and researcher of psychology specializing in the question of meaning in life. For as long as humankind has existed, we’ve pondered the meaning, purpose, and ultimate worth of our lives, and how to actually live this unique life of ours. In these pages, Martela provides a unique perspective – in a series of soulful and thought-provoking essays – that explores what brings significance to our existence as well as why we are dissatisfied with the present and have a continual yearning for something beyond where we are right now. He discusses the “busy trap”,  what he defines as “the meaning OF life and the meaning IN life” as well as his thoughts on what some consider “a calling” and much more! frankmartela.com
