If you listen, you will learn:
What it means to live an extraordinary life
Four major myths of living a successful life
To focus on the journey, not the goal
The four major aspects or questions of journey
How your sense of identity may be limiting the things you do in life
Focus on the Journey
Stever spends time looking back at the careers of his clients and going over what their goals had been and where they are today. He finds more often than not that people are not doing what they really want to be doing with their lives even if they have “achieved’ the goal they set out to do.
Most people set a life goal and then figure out how they are going to reach it. Stever explains in the podcast how this is not a smart course of action. Goals will change over your lifetime while you figure out who you are and what you want to be doing with your life. “Things that are attractive to you at 25 that inspire you to create your 40-year plan may not be as attractive at 65,” he explains.
“You don’t know where you are going to want to go because life happens.”
Put yourself out in the world and enjoy the journey. Don’t focus on a goal you made years ago, focus on your journey and allow yourself and your goals to change and evolve. “Decide the journey you want to take and then choose any goal that will force you to take that journey,” explains Stever.
Living an Extraordinary Life
Stever set out on a three-year experiment to just follow his heart and see where it went. He allowed himself to do things he had never done before. He put himself out in the world to see what would happen.
He added author, podcaster, producer, and playwright (among other things) to his resume during these three years.
He did not focus on a goal. He focused on taking the journey. He had conversations he wanted to have with people he wanted to have them with and ended up doing things very different from what he was doing before.
Not Just a Business Person
Stever urges everyone he meets to not limit their self-identity. He explains in the podcast to not base your identity on one single thing. Someone may identify themselves as a “business person.” Identifying as this only limits your life experience to only what a “business person” can do.
Opening up how you define yourself will allow you to do things you have never thought you would have done before. It gives you more options and opportunities in life. This is the only way you can figure out what you like doing and want to continue to do to make every day of your life extraordinary.
