Forget about willpower. It's time for why-power. Your choices are only meaningful when you connect them to your desires and dreams. The wisest and most motivating choices are the ones aligned with that which you identify as your purpose, your core self, and your highest values.

For two minutes a day, think of one positive experience that's occurred during the past 24 hours. Bullet point each detail you can remember.
