What are some of the most impactful memories in your life?  A graduation?  First love?  A major success?  What is it about these moments that make them so special? 

According to Eric Barker (author of [*Barking Up the Wrong Tree*](https://www.sellingenergy.com/barking-up-the-wrong-tree/)), research has shown our most treasured memories happen between the ages of 15 to 30.  This is because after reaching a certain stage in life, comfort is achieved and our lives turn stagnant.  Because of this, impactful memories need to be *made*, namely through pushing yourself out of your comfort zone.  You can read more about how to do this on Barker’s [blog](http://www.bakadesuyo.com/2017/11/create-happy-memories/). ** **
