When you grow up as the baby of 6 kids in your family you have a lot of people to watch as you are growing up and forming your values. Evan Van Dyke was doted on by his family and told he was going to grow up and be successful. So naturally Evan thought he needed to do something that his family would be impressed with, enough to sing his praises. Evan equated success with money. His mom was the epitome of positivity. Evan wasn't sure it was ok to be negative.
There came a time when Evan started to question the need for success, money, praise, and his Mormon upbringing. Once he did his due diligence researching Mormonism, he decided it wasn't the life for him anymore. But when you take your name out of the Book of Mormon you can expect to lose those that were once close to you. You lose their praise too. When that happened Evan had to decide that he was enough. He decided he could have negative emotions but to always practice gratitude. He is still very positive but admits life has it's problems. Through his gratitude, he's learned to shift his thinking about solving problems.
