For those that have yet to read my new book because. Here’s a quick primer.
One day, I asked myself a question. If you could have anything you wanted, wouldn’t you? We already know how to do most things and if we don’t, we can Google them or talk to others about it. We want to lose weight, be a better person, learn a new skill, get a new job, pursue a meaningful career, be a better parent, become more resilient, and the list goes on.
But we don’t do that. Sometimes we struggle and sometimes we don’t.
There are things that in spite of us doing everything right we can’t seem to do. On the flipside there are things that we accomplish easily and our friends get very frustrated with us and simply say that “we just have a knack for it.”
My research led to two very important things:
Sigmund Freud’s pleasure principle.
Intense research on what all top performers have in common
But this wasn’t enough. Neither one of those things answered the real question they just stopped.
So I took it further and that is what created the book because.
In this short episode, we give a recap of the book and talk about what it means to wake up to a monster.
