Uncover the transformative secrets of North Star Thinking with business strategist and best-selling author Will Polston. He provides an enlightening discussion on setting ambitious, lifelong goals and how this visionary approach can reshape our daily decisions and overall trajectory in life. His latest book serves as a guide, offering practical steps to identify your core values from life's highs and lows, setting you firmly on the path to a fulfilling and purpose-driven existence.

 

In this episode, we delve into the practical steps of finding purpose through North Star Thinking, discussing how mastery is not a destination but a continuous process tied to a grand life mission. We discuss the art of setting incremental goals, reverse engineering a grand vision into achievable steps, and creating our own purpose. Will shares insights on how identifying our core values from life's highs and lows can guide us toward a life we love, steering us toward our ultimate mission.

 

We conclude the episode by exploring the transformative power of gratitude and spirituality in achieving a balanced, enlightened state of being. We talk about reframing life's difficulties through a lens of appreciation, and we shine a light on spirituality as the thread weaving through our personal and universal tapestries. Will instils the notion that life's synchronicities are subtle hints toward our grand design. By adopting North Star Thinking as a guide, we set our sights on not just doing and having, but being—living in a state of peace and contentment that's within reach for each of us.
