Good morning and welcome to the Increasing Reimpact Podcast. I'm Justin Sua, episode 1,833. I was talking to someone the other day and we were talking about an autotelic experience. Now, autotelic comes from, it means self-goal. Auto-meaning self-Tilose. Tel-C comes from the word telos which means goal which ultimately

means that the task you are doing is the goal in itself so for example some people work out to gain

muscle some people work out to lose weight and some people work out because they love working out. Some people play sports to

win the championship. Some people play their sport because they just love to play their sport. Some

people love to read because of the knowledge they're going to gain and others read because

they just love to read. And when you do something because you just love to do it, the byproduct and all the benefits that come from that thing are just, it's going to happen because what's work to everybody else is love and fun to you.

And so my invitation to you is to find the auto telic experience in what you do.

What is it about your sport that you love?

What is it about work that you love? What is it about working out that you love or whatever you're

trying to do? Try to tap into what you love about what you do. And it's just focus on that.

And be careful attaching your love to results.

Loving to win, loving to win championships loving the

success because yes we definitely love to win that's ultimately what we were trying to do however

you don't have a lot of control over that in certain instances so you want to love things you can

control that you can do it over and over and over again.

So today, something to chew on, finding something, the autotelic experience, doing something

because you love to do it.

You're not there for the results.

You're not doing it because the status signal.

You're not doing it because it looks good for other people you're just doing it

because you love it. Have a great day. I want to do it again tomorrow.
