Triumphs of Experience


Listen Later

Nathaniel and Steve discuss Triumphs of Experience, by By George Vaillant

What if we could watch people from when they are teenagers to the time they die to study how they lived and what made them triumph? 

They did

Researchers spent $20 million as of 2012 tracking 724 men from Harvard University since 1938 (and now tracking their children)

Listen to hear about the study, the take aways, and Nathaniel's advice after reading the book.

Just a hint, the lessons learned from this study aren’t about wealth, fame, working hard. The clearest message from the study is that good relationships keep us happier and healthier.

Enjoy!
