Jay Shetty and James Clear - Find And Apply Your Passion Skill (Episode #62, 7 Oct. 2021)

In this episode, we'll explore the work of my two of heroes: James Clear author of Atomic Habits and Jay Shetty, Author of Think Like a Monk. I would love to see these two guys on same podcast!!  Maybe, someday they will be guests on my podcast, but for now, we'll just explore their work as it applies to habits. To make Atomic Habits actually work, Clear explains that you must find your purpose, the things that you're naturally good at and light your soul.  That made me think of the concept of Dharma.   As Shetty explains in his book, dharma roughly means "passion skill".  What lights your soul and do you lose track of time when doing it?  More importantly, does your passion skill meet a need in the world outside of you?   Without knowing where you going, even daily application of habits is a waste of time.  Labor towards no end goal is like sailing without a North Star to guide, making you a rudderless ship in an turbulent sea.   These two men channel ancient wisdom in a way that will powerfully transform your life.  Infinite gratitude to each of them for these incredible gifts that they have brought out into the world. We'll discuss their work, discuss a little Marcus Aurelius and send you off a mission to find what makes you "come alive".
