Shark Theory

Are You Working or Living?


Listen Later

The best life isn't about working harder—it's about building a life you don't want to clock out of.

Show Notes: In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor challenges the way we view "work" and asks the pivotal question: Are you working, or are you living?

Using real-life examples, Baylor explores how too many people settle for jobs that feel like endless clock-ins and countdowns to Friday. But true fulfillment comes when what you do feels like living—when contribution, passion, and purpose outweigh the paycheck.

Learn how to reframe your career, see the difference you're actually making, and build a life where your labor feels meaningful, not draining.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why a "work" mentality often leads to burnout and unfulfillment

  • The key difference between chasing a paycheck and pursuing a passion

  • How contribution and impact can turn a job into a calling

  • Why life only gives you what you believe you deserve

  • How to reframe your current role to see the difference you're truly making

Featured Quote: "Let's stop working. Let's start living."
