Are You Asking "WHY?"
from Catching Up with Casey · host Casey Watts, Clarity-Driven Speaker, Author, Leader
Are You Asking "Why"?If you're chasing a title, a goal, or a version of yourself right now, this might be the "why" check you need.I have a friend more disciplined than anyone I know. 5am workouts. A budget she never breaks. Actual willpower against "remind me in 15 minutes."Recently she mentioned wanting to tone her thighs just a little more. So I asked the question I always ask: "What is it that motivates you to reach that goal?"She paused. "Huh. That's a good question. I'd have to think about it."In this episode, I explore the difference between want and need, internal motivation and external motivation, and why so few of us ever stop to ask which one is actually driving us. I share my own story of chasing a doctoral degree for reasons I hadn't gotten honest about, and what it took to finally see them clearly.🔗 More on the book and community: clearisthenewconfident.com 🔗 Let's connect on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/catchupwithcasey 🔗 Coaching & more: www.catchingupwithcasey.com#Leadership #LeadershipDevelopment #HighAchievers #LeadershipCoaching
