Lasting Social Change Unfolds From Inside Out:

More Young People Are Volunteering Than Ever Before. More People Are Including Service To Others On Their Busy Lives' To Do List. The Promise Of America Is Embedded Deep In Our Dna, Calling Us To A Much Less Shallow Search For Happiness And Meaning.

I Started Asking The Big Questions That I Had Asked In College, That My Compatriots The Greek Philosophers Had Asked, Like 'what Is A Good Life?' Socrates Famously Said That 'the Unexamined Life Is Not Worth Living.' I Started Asking These Questions From The Starting Point Of 'what Is Success?'

Not Only Is It Harder To Be A Man, It Is Also Harder To Become One.

I Usually Start With A Big Question, Such As Whether People Today Are Happier Than In The Past, Or Why Men Have Dominated Women In Most Human Societies. And Then I Follow The Question Instead Of Trying To Follow My Own Answer, Even If It Means I Can't Formulate Any Clear Theory.

When Life Is At That Extremely Hard Time, All We Can Control Is Our Attitude.
