Summary
Is there something that you think is fun – or something you think would be fun – that you’re bad at? Can’t draw a straight line, but love to paint and draw anyway? Have no rhythm, but enjoy the feeling of dancing? Why not do it anyway? Don’t worry about getting better – just be bad at it and enjoy it! In today’s episode, Rachael and Kelsea will talk about why you should consider spending time doing something that’s never going to win an award or make a lot of money – why you should be doing things that you love just because you love them.
Topics Discussed in Today’s Episode:
- How to measure accomplishment
- Doing things you enjoy even if you can’t monetize them or become really great at them
- Doing things for the pure love of them
- The value of not having a goal to get better
- Doing things you enjoy without having an end goal at all
- Finding meaning in your life that’s just for you, not for other people
- Hey, Girl, Hey segment
