If You Don't Know Why You're Doing It, Stop Doing It | Solo Episode

The Cambridge dictionary defines purpose as "an intention or aim, a reason for doing something or for allowing something to happen." That last part is the one most people miss. Because even when you're not taking action, things are still happening to you, and if you're not careful, you're just letting life happen without any reason behind it.In this solo episode of Conversations That Count, David Shaft breaks down what purpose actually means when you strip away the motivational fluff. He talks about what a yoga instructor taught him about setting intentions, why having a clear end goal doesn't help if the path to get there is hazy, and the difference between allowing things to happen within your purpose versus being too weak to say no.Why setting an intention on everything you do, from your career to your daily routine, forces your actions to align with what you actually want instead of just reacting to whatever lands in front of youThe part of purpose nobody talks about: when you let things happen to you without a reason, you're giving away control of your life one decision at a timeHow something as simple as knowing why you're taking on extra work, whether it's a promotion, a relationship, or just respect for your leader, changes whether that work builds you up or burns you outWatch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ConversationsThatCount-CTCNew episodes of Conversations That Count every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
