Meaning isn’t something you optimize. It’s something you contemplate. It comes from answering three questions: Coherence: Why do things happen the way they do? Purpose: Why am I doing what I’m doing?

Meaning does not come from having the right answers. It comes from living with the right questions. Coherence, purpose, and significance are the “why” questions that shape your life: • Why do things happen as they do? • Why am I going in this direction? • Why does my life matter, and to whom? These questions cannot be outsourced. They are discovered by living with them over time. | Arthur Brooks

A culture that tries to eliminate pain entirely does not become happier. It becomes less capable of meaning. | Arthur Brooks
