by Vishen Lakhiani

1. COMPASSION. I believe that all human beings need love and compassion in their lives. This phase is about helping you be kinder toward others and kinder toward yourself. It’s a powerful self-love tool. 2. GRATITUDE. We may have many goals, but it’s important to appreciate and be happy about what we’ve accomplished thus far. Gratitude has a high correlation with well-being and happiness. 3. FORGIVENESS. Being at peace with the world and the people around you is one of the most effective ways to maintain Blissipline. Plus, it makes you unfuckwithable. 4. FUTURE DREAMS. As you learned in chapters 7 and 8, it’s hugely energizing to have a vision pulling you forward—a picture of how you want your life to unfold in the future. 5. THE PERFECT DAY. This phase gives you a sense of control over how life unfolds every day. It translates your future dreams into actionable steps. 6. THE BLESSING. We need to feel supported, resting in the knowledge that whatever big projects we’re setting out to do, things are going to be okay. This phase is about making you feel safe and supported in your quest.
