Rick: Living with Purpose

Today Rick called in to share his story about fear and following through with your ambitions, goals and dreams. Rick had a very successful corporate career but one thing that he always wanted to do in life was write and publish a book. He received early feedback from his professors that his ideas where good but he wasn’t clear enough in expressing them in writing. This lead him to doubt himself and defer this goal of becoming an author. Rick talks about reading a guide on how to publish a book in 90 days and in that moment it crystallized for himself that he was going to do it. He told his family and friends and at that point he was committed. Rick shares so many valuable thoughts on setting your purpose statement and using it as a guiding compass to help steer you in the direction that aligns the outer world with your inner truths. Rick talks about creating a deliberate practice, seeking continuous improvement in life, being open to feedback and criticism and how we can all achieve our best selves if we choose to embrace the confidence to face our fears.
