Simon Sinek

His career wasn't really working.

His relationship was struggling.

And instead of trying to solve all the problems, to work on the edges, he went back to the root, which is him.

Him.

He is the root of all of these things in his life.

You know?

The only common factor in everything he's dealing with is him.

And he was so lovely.

And he basically said, you know...

For whatever reason, maybe it was resignation, I just decided to stop trying to solve all those problems and go back to me.

And reconnecting with my why and learning what it is made clear all the mistakes I was making.

And my career turned around.

My marriage got better.

I got happier, you know?

It's stories like that that I find so profound and inspire me to keep pushing and keep coming up with new ideas because when I get to see that my work can have an impact in someone's life, I mean, that's the greatest incentive in the world.

I'm writing a book about friendship.

I've become sort of obsessed with friendship.

If you think about it, all the challenges that we face in the world today, people struggling with anxiety, depression, inability to cope with stress, in the worst cases, suicide, all of those rising rates of all those things,

Friendship fixes all those things.

I'm living proof of it.
