You know how easy it is to move from one to-do item to the next and before you know it, a week has passed, and then a month, and then a year? You might wonder, how do I stop this cycle of getting things done and start being more creative with my life?
Well, one good place to start is with your WHY: the reason why you get out of bed in the morning, the reason why you do everything you do. I don't mean the more surface reasons: feed the family, pay the bills... I mean something deep down that we don't often pause long enough to acknowledge. Your WHY isn't something you choose and it isn't necessarily shiny and glitzy. But when you connect to it, it is highly motivating. My WHY is to lessen the pain in the world. Yes, I want to help people achieve their goals, be happier, and feel great about themselves. But when I get down deep, that's what's there: to lessen the pain in the world. It has been my MO since I was a kid. And you will also recognize your WHY as something you have known your whole life. So whether you are building a business, making a career move, figuring out the next steps in a project, or trying to reinvigorate your life, knowing your WHY will serve you well. I leave you with two questions: 1) What is your WHY? 2) How could you leverage that to bring motivation and energy to your current challenges? Need inspiration? Watch Simon Sinek's TED talk.
