Timing and Experiences

About This Talk

Following up on the previous week’s talk about experiences, Chris takes the idea a step further. Every experience, he says, arrives at the exact moment a person needs to learn something, not a moment too early or too late. He asks listeners to stay in the moment, stop labeling experiences good or bad, and ask what each one is there to teach them.

Key Ideas

• Experiences aren’t good or bad; they’re just experiences.
• Each experience happens at the exact moment you need to learn something, not a moment too late or too early.
• Being in the moment lets you ask what you’re supposed to learn, so you can thrive and not just survive.

“The timing of an experience is exact. It’s not a moment too late and it’s not a moment too early.”
