Show Notes:

In this episode, I share a story of when I got into a serious car crash when I was living and working inn a very 'busy' way and trying to do too much. Even though I was physically ok, the crash served as a wake up call for me.

I reflect on how many people (including myself) get caught up in the "striving and seeking" mindset, working long hours and giving everything to work at the expense of health, family, etc. This leads to burnout and feeling like you've "crashed" in some way.

I discuss the importance of knowing your "why" - why you are working so hard and what is the deeper purpose behind your goals. Otherwise you can get stuck on the "hedonic treadmill" constantly striving for the next achievement but never feeling fulfilled.

I recommend writing down your thoughts about what "success" looks like for you, then tuning into how you feel about that vision. Are your thoughts and feelings coherent and aligned? Or is there dissonance there? Getting clarity on your vision and aligning your mindset is key.

I emphasize feeling the emotions you want to feel now, rather than always chasing external markers of success. If you feel peaceful and happy now, you are more likely to take inspired action towards your goals.

Key Learnings:

Going too fast literally and figuratively can lead to a "crash" - listen when life is telling you that you need to slow down.

It's easy to get caught in the "striving and seeking" mindset, overworking and burning yourself out. Periodically ask yourself "why am I doing this?" to reconnect with your purpose.

Align your thoughts about success with how you want to feel - coherence is key. Feel those emotions now rather than always chasing the next achievement.

Your inspired actions will naturally flow when you have inner peace and happiness in the present moment. Live from that place as much as possible.
