Episode 91: Find Your Reason to Keep Fighting

When life strips away the person you thought you were, what gives you a reason to keep going?In this deeply personal short episode of The Life Dojo Podcast, Marcus speaks openly about one of the lowest periods of his life after losing his limb and struggling to recognise himself in the life that remained.At a time when he felt completely lost, something simple gave him a reason to get out of bed each morning: his dog.Caring for another living being gave Marcus responsibility, routine and something outside of his own pain to focus on. Walking him, feeding him and simply knowing that he depended on him became the first spark that helped Marcus begin moving forward again.Michael and Marcus discuss how purpose does not always arrive as some huge life mission. Sometimes the first reason to keep fighting is much smaller, a person, an animal, a responsibility, a passion or simply the belief that there is still more of your life to discover.Find your reason to keep fighting.
