Dan Millman: No Ordinary Moments in the School of Life
What if everything that happened to you in life was for your highest good and learning? In this riveting talk, Dan Millman, author of The Way of the Peaceful Warrior, shares his insights into the school of life, and how we can approach each of our experiences as opportunities for growth, wisdom, and self-knowledge. "I often use the term 'spiritual weight-training' -- the difficulties and challenges of everyday life which do arise. That's what life is about; its spiritual weight training, and we get stronger," Millman says. Millman defines 12 courses we're here to master, in order to transcend to a higher spiritual life. Read on to hear him share more on how we can lean into our difficulties, and gain a sense of mastery from the everyday.
