Mission Daily

Building a 'Yes' Life on Your Terms


Listen Later

You don’t have to be rich to build the life of your dreams.


In today’s episode of Mission Daily, Albert shares how he’s built a life that allows him to say “Yes!” to the things he loves. 


Many people fall into the trap of believing that the only way they can live their “dream” life is by accumulating more debt, working more hours, or putting their passions and hobbies on hold. 


Albert sees it differently. Throughout his life and career, he’s prioritized two key goals: surfing and family. Every decision he’s made - from working as a teacher to buying an older car to working in the tech world - has been to support those goals. 


Albert’s story is about taking on life’s opportunities, prioritizing what matters, and building a life based on his values. He will happily say no to the things that don’t matter so he can say ‘heck yes’ to the things that do.


Despite not following traditional paths, Albert shows us how adaptability and positive choices can lead to a fulfilling life. 


At the end of this episode, you’ll learn a series of frameworks and techniques to apply this philosophy to your life.
