It is not about happiness anymore, but about the 4 pillars of meaning. <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

The first pillar is belonging.<\/a>Belonging comes from being in relationships<\/a>where you’re valued for who you are intrinsically<\/a>and where you value others as well.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The second pillar: purpose. <\/a>Purpose is less about what you want than about what you give<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The third pillar of meaning is also about stepping beyond yourself,<\/a> but in a completely different way:<\/a>transcendence.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The fourth pillar is storytelling,<\/a> the story you tell yourself about yourself.<\/a> Creating a narrative from the events of your life brings clarity.<\/a> It helps you understand how you became you.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
