Have you ever stopped to question why you're doing the things you do? Billionaire entrepreneur Sarah Blakely shared with me during our Marie Claire interview that she regularly asks herself this powerful question during her daily drives to and from the Spanx offices. This simple yet profound practice has become her secret weapon for maintaining clarity and purpose.

The question "why" reveals whether we're acting from our authentic selves or from our ego. When we examine our motivations, we discover if we're creating from love—driven by genuine passion and a desire to contribute—or for love—seeking external validation and approval. I've witnessed this distinction firsthand, like when I met an author who was disappointed about not hitting a bestseller list rather than celebrating the impact her work might have on readers. Her focus was on status rather than service.
