The guest I have today has done something incredibly unique. It is not that he has lived an amazing life, which he has. It is not that he has had a successful career, which he has. What is so incredibly unique is that he made the choice that many of us fantasize about but never have the courage to act on it. Today’s guest, Brian Wilson, made the bold choice to leave the United States and move to a foreign country.
Brian grew up in Portland, Oregon, and was an elite athlete and student. He even played NCAA basketball at Pomona Pitzer College under Gregg Popovich who is now coach of the San Antonio Spurs. He had a very dynamic and successful career as an entrepreneur and corporate executive where he focused on technology innovation and new product development. Once he and his wife retired, they didn’t have an understanding of what they wanted to do next so they decided to try living overseas.
"Well, I think that is a really important word, purpose. The benefit of having some financial security and stability is that you have choices around how to spend your time and what your purpose can or should be. And I’m not fully convinced I have fully found and embraced mine yet.”
“There doesn’t seem to be a real through line to the other experiences I’ve had other than I didn’t want to regret anything. I wanted to be able to say, I tried. I did that because it was important to me.”
“Again, it’s this idea of you make the best choices that you can make given the information you have at any given time and then move on without regret.”
In this episode, you will hear: - How Brian and his wife decided on which foreign country to reside in and their experience so far - His philosophy for living and the importance of spending less than you make to enable you to have choices around your time and your purpose - His process for making big decisions by using his intellect and his gut
