3 Ideas For Better Habits
The Power of Visualization
Motivational speaker and author, David J. Schwartz, on the value of visionary thinking.
"Look at things not as they are, but as they can be. Visualization adds value to everything. A big thinker always visualizes what can be done in the future. He isn't stuck with the present."
Biologist and researcher, David A. Sinclair, on the treatability of aging.
"I believe that aging is a disease. I believe it is treatable. I believe we can treat it within our lifetimes. And in doing so, I believe, everything we know about human health will be fundamentally changed."

Author, Elizabeth Gilbert, on the relentless pursuit of joy.
"Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings.
And once you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about maintaining it. You must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into that happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it."
