Life Span, Health Span, Fulfillment Span

We can only kind of control how long we live. We can try to impact how much of our time is spent in a state of good health. But an even better goal is to maximize the amount of our lifetime spent in a state of true aliveness and fulfillment. See comparison of the overlapping categories in the notes below, and enjoy the show.

Life Span: The longest a human can live at a given point in time. (Very little control over this)

Life Expectancy: How long you personally can expect to live based on different factors. (Some control over this)

Health Span: How long you can expect to be reasonably healthy within your lifespan. (More control over this)

Fulfillment Span: What percentage of your years on this planet you will spend feeling and being fulfilled. (Lots of control over this)

A Fresh Quote On Finding Perspective

My late Father John Riggle or “Big Rig” had his own words of wisdom for reducing the solution to complex problems down to a simple phrase of clarity as a guiding principle. He called these “Riggleisms”. He hoped his children would have their own one day.

Here is one from yours truly.

“Stop Eliminating hope, And Start Illuminating Better Possibilities”

We often get stuck in negative perspectives or thought patterns that don’t help us live a fulfilled life.

Its easy to justify feeling this way based on our circumstances or the actions of others.

This quote and episode are a method and a mindset for moving out of that state of mind and moving forward to a better broader set of perspectives.
