Summary

Start Your Transformation Now I go a few different directions in this episode. I talk about “Doing the work” in life and tie that into “What Makes Me Matter.”  When we come to what makes us matter, we metaphorically set ourselves on fire, and life becomes amazing.  Most of us fall short when it comes to doing the work and things that need to be done in life because nothing has set us on fire to do what is necessary to create the outcomes we desire.  When I had my stroke after heart failure, it was a lot of “work” healing and getting back to great health, and I do mean a lot of work! But, I did all the work necessary because I know that I matter in life. What I do professionally matters, I matter, my life matters – I am a person who matters. Read on, I’ll explain.  One of the obstacles to doing the work in life is that we hit resistance and we stop and this is exactly when we should push through and persevere.  Resistance keeps us from everything we want in life!  Resistance comes in the form of fears, overly analytical rationalizations and the environment we live in.  And, until we cut through all this head garbage we’re not going to bust through resistance, and when we don’t do that, we almost never do the great things in our life that bring us the greatest joy.  This episode is all about what matter you matter in life and a simple way to discover that. It’s the approach that I take and live from.  Transformational Takeaway: It’s vital that we come into the knowing of “why we are here,” and when we do that, what makes us matter becomes clear. And then…life becomes extraordinary! Mentioned Resources: https://adoptaplatoon.org/ Let's Connect:  Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?

Because see, what we learn, what we hear most often from the motivational speakers,

0:24.5

is everyone says, what is your why?

0:27.7

And why basically is a rational reason?

0:30.7

And we're not actually motivated by rationality.

0:33.7

We're motivated by feelings and emotions and deep-level feelings and seated and emotions.

0:39.7

So when we talk about finding our why, many times that's not strong enough.

0:45.7

But what is strong enough to move us is when we can actually viscerally feel
