  • Dan explains when and how he chose the goal of living to 156 years, and how this has shaped his mindset over the years.
  • Peter and Dan agree that many things contribute to a Longevity Mindset, including what you read and watch, your community, your diet and exercise, and ultimately what you believe the future will be like.
