"If each of us would only sweep our own doorstep, the whole world would be clean." Mother Teresa

I love this quote because it's true, it also applies to this week's podcast.

The concept of Rational Selfishness, yes selfish, is strongly endorsed by Life By Design. We believe that if everyone practiced it, and allowed others the freedom to practice it, or not, the world would, in fact, be a much better place.

If you're new to the Life By Design podcast, this should be an interesting episode for you, and if you've listened in the past please take the time to review.

What's wrong with putting yourself first? Why is other's happiness OK, but yours wrong? Does selfishness mean harming other people? Does one person have to lose for another to win? These are questions and morals that we've grown up with, but are they really true? Are they even helpful, or could they be harmful?

The purpose of this podcast is to explain the idea of rational selfishness and how, if accepted, rational selfishness can lead you to a life of happiness and joy, without hurting or harming others.

What I covered

• What being selfish means, why it's gotten such a bad rap and continues to get a worse one, and how you can apply this idea to your life and have nothing but success with it.
• Why sacrificing is never a good idea and why it's not something that you should ever do.
• Why being selfish, in some circumstance means looking out for the welfare of other people.
• How to start applying this concept of rational selfishness to your life.
