Sometimes, powerful reminders come to us in seemingly innocuous ways. 

 

In this special solo episode of the Working For a Dream Podcast, Patrick reflects on two lessons while taking his wife’s van to the car wash. Within these reflections, he thought back to his lowest point nearly a decade ago, and he shares an email he found that exemplifies this period.

 

“The main f***ing reason I had to write that type of email was that my mindset was broken,” he says. “I was broke — broke financially, broke mentally. It took about ten more years for me to wake the f*** up.” 

 

He also shares a vital lesson someone working at the car wash that day showed him and invites us to consider the question: Are you doing the right thing in life, regardless of who’s looking?
