Health is a destination toward which we travel without ever arriving. We are born nearly perfect and death transforms us back toward the perfection from which we came. Throughout life, I propose that a health goal worth striving for is to define what “healthy enough” is for each of us and to then live in ways that keep us pushing 10% beyond that sweet spot for as much of our lives as possible. By studying the ways people eat, move, think, and recuperate, we can try new methods, ditch what doesn’t fit into our dream lives and keep adding what does until we forget that health as something we reach for and experience it as the journey we’re on.
Communication is about trust. Trust is the ultimate currency. To foster trust with others, we must first trust ourselves. We achieve this by understanding the motivating forces of our inner worlds physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Once we can notice what we notice and feel what we feel, we can start adding language that represents the truth of what’s happening within us and allows us to better imagine what’s happening within another person. We train our thoughts to improve the ways we speak to ourselves and develop the skill of self-empathy. We begin
Businesses are vehicles that people use to solve problems, build wealth, influence change in the world, and live their lives the way they want to live them. As we master the skills required to grow in business, such as innovating, marketing, selling, and operating, we learn to control our time, contribute more to others, and experience fulfillment by doing work that matters. Success in business is similar to health. We must each understand what “successful enough” is for each of us. By beginning with the end in mind, we can more accurately design a journey that gets us where we want to go while enjoying the ride with people we care about.
There exists an essential tension between purpose & purposelessness. Regarding purpose, we may be parents to our children, partners to our significant others, professionals that people rely on for help. Considering purposelessness, we are specs of stardust and mean nearly nothing in the grand scheme of the cosmos. Therefore, we need not worry, have attachments, or suffer, but rather notice, and perhaps appreciate, the experience of being alive. By acknowledging and accepting the idea of purposelessness, we can come to realize that our purpose is what we make it. We have a choice. Luckily (and purposefully), the universe gave us sensory organs to perceive the needs of our world, a mind to make meaning of what we notice, and bodies to move things forward.
