Summary

Do you find that you’re constantly setting lofty goals for yourself, but then backing down when it comes time to turn them into reality? It’s a common problem, even for the most successful people. Your goals might be completely achievable but without knowing how to properly evaluate your situation and choose the right path to take, we can get stuck at square one. Today’s guest, Matthew Hermann, knows this all too well. At an early age, he faced adversity as his mom was diagnosed with cancer, turning them from a poor family to one in severe debt. It made him prioritize making money above all else in life. His defining goal became financial security, so he went to medical school – only to then begin doubting his path. Over a decade later, he realized he needed change and managed to get himself unstuck from the flattened trajectory he was on. He’s now pursuing his true life’s goals – things that bring him happiness and contentment instead of just being what he assumed he was supposed to do. But derailing yourself so that you can pursue your dreams instead of someone else’s can often seem a lot easier said than done.  So just how did Matthew Hermann make these huge career pivots successfully? You guessed it. By using the ONE Thing. And here’s how you can use it to make the changes you want to see in your life.
