Summary

I’m going from our values to today’s cultural issues. Considering your values which we covered in the previous episode will help you better understand your own position on the issues. Or if you even want one. I argue that it’s near impossible to have a concrete stance or even in-depth knowledge of every issue. Why? There are too many and if anything, I question someone who has a stance on every issue and I’d argue that while they may have some knowledge and have developed a position, they aren’t taking adequate time to actually participate and be giving value to any or many of them. Which makes them a critic with no value instead of someone intelligent, responsible, and “in the know.” I bump up enough literal issues within my own family and town and in order to engage, I can’t tend to everyone.

0:00.0	Welcome to the What Drives You Podcast. I'm Kevin Miller and I produce this show to help us all continually
0:06.7	discover where we want to go, why and how to best get there. All the while enjoying the daily drive as much as the
0:14.5	destinations we want to reach. In this episode I'm going from our values in
0:21.0	today's cultural issues and looking at the concept of not having a stance on every
0:28.0	issue.
0:29.0	And considering your values, which we covered in the previous episode will help you better
0:33.4	understand your own position on the issues or again if you even want one. I
0:38.7	argue that it's near impossible to have a concrete stance or even an in-depth
0:42.3	knowledge of every social issue out there.
0:45.3	There's just too many.
0:47.3	If anything, I question someone who does have a stance on every issue and I'd argue that while
0:51.8	they may have some knowledge and have developed a position,
0:54.6	it may not be taking adequate time to actually participate and be giving value to any or many of them
1:01.1	at least, which makes them a critic with no value instead of someone
1:05.7	intelligent, responsible, and actually in the know.
1:09.0	I bump up against these literal issues, some of them, with my own family, in my own town.
1:16.0	And in order to engage in those, I just can't tend to everyone.
1:21.0	Can you?
1:22.0	As I talk through this here in a moment, if you got a question, a comment on what I
1:28.4	discuss, let me know. I would be honored to engage with you. K Miller at Kevin Miller.co.
1:35.5	What drives you?
1:36.4	That becomes the construct that is your life.
