In this episode, I talk about my adventures in Boulder, Colorado last week in the context of a book I read last spring called "Life in Three Dimensions: How Curiosity, Exploration, and Experience Make a Fuller, Better Life" by Professor Shigehiro Oishi. The premise of this book is that there are 3 main components to a "good" life, happiness, meaning and also psychological richness. I define all three terms, give a few examples of each from my own life, and talk about how it can actually be pretty easy to make ourlives a little (or a lot) more "psychologically rich". Whether by traveling more, exploring our own cities (like I mentioned in Week 161), or even just reading a new kind of book, listening to a different podcast, or taking a slightly different way to work in the morning, we can make our lives a little bit better by mixing things up a little bit!
