Too many people arrive at their leadership position, organize their desk, and enter a state of comfortable hedonism where they stop growing, stop stretching, and stop becoming who they were designed to be. Draw a line on a piece of paper from birth to when you die. On the left side, write down the beautiful moments that shaped you. On the right side, write down what you want to accomplish before you die. That right side is your why, and protecting it means you stop wasting time on things that don't get you there. Your future is so beautiful and your happily ever after is waiting for you, but nothing comes for free. You have to grind 100% to earn that remarkable life.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• The timeline exercise that helps you find your why and stop wasting time
• Why so many leaders get stuck in hedonism after they arrive at their position
• How to identify what truly matters on the right side of your line before you die
• Why 85 to 95 percent success rate exists for superintendent bootcamp versus 95 plus percent for field engineers (stuck people who won't stretch)
• The reality that you have to grind Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday with no breaks to live that remarkable life

If your career is not heading you toward the right side of your line, why are you there? What are you going to do about it?
