Reflecting on recent coaching sessions, I noticed a common struggle among clients
– the pursuit of purpose, motivation, and happiness.
It’s a universal quest akin to the challenges we face in sports.
Imagine a tough Saturday evening game that extends into overtime, leaving you physically drained and sleep-deprived.
The aftermath can either render you cranky and fatigued or surprisingly content.
We often lose sight of the bigger picture.
Consider this: with 7.7 billion people on Earth, where do you rank in terms of success and happiness?
Let’s look at some eye-opening stats:
- 785 million lack access to water
- 820 million suffer from hunger
- 40.5 million are still enslaved
- 60% lack a flushing toilet
- 3 billion lack internet access
Now, consider global average annual salaries: USA ($20k), Russia ($5.5k), India ($1.6k), and Malawi ($1.1k).
Perspective, right?
So, is it really that bad to wake up tired to your kids?
Was that argument with your spouse worth the energy?
Many chase unnecessary things and seek motivation externally.
Instead, look inward – the answers, your WHYs, and even happiness are closer than you think.
You don’t need to open your eyes; it’s enough to open your heart.
That’s when any game or season can be won 🙂
