Was I doing it by myself?
All those things were just as important, if not more, this was the dirty little secret, if not more than this top-down mission.
And I'm wondering how you see that kind of friction show up in your work and how you coach people through it.
It's really difficult.
The advice I sometimes give people is pay attention to what's really weird about you.
Like, what do you like to do that none of your peers like to do?
Because so much of our behavior is socially influenced.
And so when we really use some of those emotional tokens to do something really different from the crowd, I think there's also a lot of data in those choices as well.
Many of our listeners are mid-career or even later.
They've checked the box on the V and the L, kind of where you are in some ways, it sounds like, and now they really want to lean into purpose.
What advice would you give them on navigating that pivot?
Before you move on to the second one, I just want to underscore that because a lot of us come to work with a lot of our own security demons.
And I see particularly late in career, just falling back on this habit of, I need this job.
For a lot of people, it means safety, security, like a sense of wellbeing, a sense of confidence in the future, deeply respect all of those things.
But when you're at the point where you are getting restless because you want something more, it means you are willing to make a different kind of risk security trade-off, which is such an exciting moment in a life and a career.
And this is the punchline where you have nothing to lose.
Yes.
Because you're already starting to fantasize about walking away.
So before you do that, let's find out what other ways you might be able to get meaning from your current job.
I love that.
