He explores why humans are wired to think about the future and how this tendency can create both opportunities and anxiety. Cory explains how to distinguish ambitions rooted in fear from those inspired by joy, and why many of our life decisions unknowingly stem from wounds rather than wholeness. He also offers practical ways to cultivate presence, align choices with our deepest values, and build a life grounded in clarity rather than control.   ➡️ Show Links https://successstorypodcast.com   YouTube: https://youtu.be/zxVvP0bM95o  Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cory-muscara-mindfulness-expert-former-monk-why-mindfulness/id1484783544  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2E92Djw6c21Mxht37fSVKo    ➡️ Watch the Podcast on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/scottdclary
