This is the old, well, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

Okay, the problem with the lemonade idea is let's take a bad thing and make a good thing of it.

No, no, no, no.

Okay, there's something that's not working.

I get that.

But that doesn't mean there aren't other parts of your life where more meaning and more aliveness are lurking, latently waiting for you to discover them.

Don't let those go.

Now, meanwhile, we might want to have some projects to... Maybe your job is a bad situation.

When we...

got asked over and over again, why isn't it more fulfilling?

It's, I thought I did everything you guys said, and it still isn't working for me.

We're hearing that skyrocket as a question in the last two years.

I'm just not having the impact I want to.

Well, impact is important, but it's only one form of meaning-making, and it's got a very short half-life.

Right after you finish doing something successful, three, two, one, what have you done for us lately?

So there are other ways to experience meaning, which happen in this place we call the flow world, not in this busy world we're all in most of the time we call the transactional world.

So our big invitation for where that more meaning is, is spending more time in the flow world, which is right here, by the way, but there's a lot more in front of you than you think.

This is easier than they told you.

It happened on Canadian live TV.

We were running out of time.
