Today's wisdom is from Love 2.0 by Barbara Fredrickson One of my all time favorite books transformed my life. Barbara Fredrickson redefines love. She tells us love is not about grand gestures. It's about micro moments of shared positivity. Love isn't just romantic, it's a feeling of connection we can cultivate with anyone anytime. Here's how to practice Love 2.0 today. Create micro moments. Fredriksen says. Look for small moments of connection. Smile, listen deeply or express appreciation. Number two Prioritize positivity. Positive emotions broaden your perspective and build relationships. So share one kind word today. Number three Be present. Love happens in the here and now, so give your full attention to someone important to you. What's one way you can create more love and connection today? Get on that. Make today heroic. I'll see you tomorrow. And if you're enjoying this, go check out the Philosopher's Notes, a 25 minute look at the best big ideas. From Love 2.0 by Barbara Fredrickson.
