Your Won Life

How to live fully and not in quiet desperation


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore how to break free from a "quiet life of desperation" and truly sing your life song. It's all about being unapologetically yourself, pursuing what makes you come alive, having a big vision of what you want your life to be, and thriving!

This episode is based on the quote 'Most men lead lives of quiet desperation, and die with their song still in them' and is aimed at helping you to not be like most people. Here are big steps you can move toward to make sure you live fully

Surround yourself with people who are authentically themselves - in community

Hang out in environments that pressure you into doing the positive actions you're wanting to take, particularly those you're scared of

Take inventory of activities that energize you and schedule them

Some reminders from the episode

  • Channel your inner Rudy Ruttiger (pretending you're the main character in a movie)
  • Get out of your shell and dance (metaphorically)
  • Important questions to ask yourself, like 'wouldn't it be wild if I ______?'
  • Interacting with new people, because most want to connect!
  • Not engaging in activities that are a time suck on your life
  • Having the mindset of engaging in little adventures frequently
