I was just trying to figure out how can I get in front of the smartest people in the world, learn from them to help me, and also share the wisdom to help others.

And that purpose kept me showing up long before anyone knew the show existed.

And this was a time when no one knew what a podcast was.

You had to send people a link to iTunes and teach them a five-step process just for clicking and listening to the show.

It was so hard to get people to listen to a podcast 13 years ago.

And I still did it because I loved it.

There was something behind it.

And I wasn't doing it for the money.

I was doing it for the impact and the meaning of it.

And that's what made me stick through it through all the years and why I'm still doing it today.

You want to ask yourself three questions.

Why does this goal matter to me?

What will my life look like if I achieve it?

And who will I become in the process?

When you connect your goal to your heart, not just your calendar, amazing things will start to unfold.

And when you get clear on why you want this thing to happen, why you want to accomplish that goal,

you will become someone greater just in the process of developing what you need to develop to accomplish it.

And even if the goal doesn't happen, even if in six months or a year you don't accomplish the goal, you're gonna be so much farther along than when you were when you started out.

This is a big one.

Again, step one is make sure you wanna really connect your heart by getting crystal clear on your why.
