Summary
Today there is so much pressure to find our why, to have a clear purpose in life. Some people seem to have it all figured out. We see them on social media living their dreams. Others think they know what they were meant to be, only to find out they're unfulfilled. Those of us who haven't defined a clear purpose yet seem to be looked down on (or maybe we just feel that way). Today's guest tells us why you need to forget the pressure to find your why and how to let it reveal itself to you.
Dominick Quartuccio, bestselling author of Design Your Future: 3 Simple Steps to Stop Drifting and Take Command of Your Life, is back on The Dad Edge. He says that in looking too hard for our purpose in life, it eludes us. Most people don't know what their destiny is, and that's okay. He teaches us how to analyze our lives to become aware of what lights us up, and how to follow that passion to create a life that excites us.
