Reflecting on Life's Highs and Lows

00:00:39
Speaker
First thing is, have you ever thought and reflected about your past, your career, maybe your biography, if you were to write it? What is that? What are the key and highlighted points? What are the valleys?
00:00:51
Speaker
What are the things that you feel like you've had to endure the good, the bad, the ugly, the good experiences, the bad experiences, all those things?

Mapping Life's Peaks and Valleys for Gratitude
