Daily Boost Podcast Remember What Makes You Happy September 14, 2026 | Episode 5541 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description You're the boss of you. I'm the boss of me. And every week I watch people who know exactly what they'd love to do wait for the weekend to do it. That's a lot of Mondays through Fridays spent on hold. Today I'm handing you a challenge. It'll sound counterintuitive, then you'll try it and go, " That was easy. I'll walk you through six zones where your passion lives, and why a couple of small things from those zones today beat all of them on Saturday. Do it today. Maybe tomorrow too. You'll feel more fulfilled and more in control. Featured Story I live in Florida. I see it all the time. Somebody spends forty years caught up in the kids, the job, the traffic, the cost of everything. They know what they love. They'll get to it later. Then they turn 65, sell the house up north, and roll into town. I escaped the great north. Now it's my turn to live. And then they check out. Heart attack. Gone. I've seen it way too many times to laugh about it. That's why I built six passion zones. Not so you can plan a retirement. So you can find the couple of things that make you happy and do one of them before the sun goes down today. Important Points * Doing three of your hundred passions today beats doing zero. Small daily doses beat saving it all up for Saturday. * You can pick how you want to feel by picking who you connect with. Need support or love today? Reach for that person. * Legacy isn't what they say when you're gone. It's the thing you do every single day that people already know you for. Memorable Quotes * If I know what I like to do, then I should do it, because if I do what I like to do, my life should be better. * Just because you have a list of ten things you think make you happy doesn't mean you need to do them every single day. * I don't really care when I'm dead. I consider legacy a living legacy: what am I doing every day that people know me for? Scott's Three-Step Approach * Name one thing you love in each of the six zones: personal, purposeful, connection, spiritual, abundance, legacy. * Pick two or three of them, not the whole list, and do a small version of each one before this day is over tonight. * Notice tonight how much more in control you feel, then run it again tomorrow. Start today, start moving, stay moving.
