But rather why do … Continue reading 190: Leigh Martinuzzi| A Question to Ask Yourself “What’s It All For”

“The situation is hopeless but its not serious.”

Dr. Raj Raghunathan studies the impact that people’s judgments and decisions have on their own happiness and fulfillment. Based on his research, he teaches a very successful course on Happiness around the world.

Fifteen years after getting his MBA, Raj Raghunathan spent some time with his old classmates. He noticed that though they'd all done well, there didn't appear to be much correlation between their academic success and career success. What Raj found even more curious was the even smaller correlation between career success and what he calls life success. The greater the career success, the more unhappy, out of shape, harried and distracted his friends were.

If intelligence helps with decision-making, smart people should naturally make better life choices. So why are so many of the smartest, brightest, most successful people profoundly unhappy? This lead him to researching and writing, If Your So Smart, Why Aren’t You Happy?

In this chat we discuss his book an happiness. It will give you a powerful new perspective on your work, personal goals and relationships, whether you're already successful or just starting out.

What a truly amazing life story. If you looked at Arnold’s life now without knowing his story you would not even begin to believe the journey he has taken to get there. This is why I love biographies of successful people, there is so much great insight, learnings and most of all inspiration. If you believe that what you dream is impossible, unreachable, then read this – you may just turn impossible into possible.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was born in Austria and as a kid had a fairly normal upbringing, at least for the time. Like any young boy he did boy things, tried to impress the girls, looked for adventure, sought passion to sink his teeth into and always looked for way to make a dime. Fast forward to today, Arnold has had an amazing array of success in life.

From the world champion and arguably the greatest bodybuilder of his time, to a number 1 action movie hero, and more recently Governor of California his achievements are none other than grand. They are not everyone’s dreams but none the less they are huge dreams achieved by a guy from a standard upbringing. Not to mention that majority of his success was made in America, a country he immigrated to at age 21 without limited knowledge of the language.

There is an over abundance of information that exists within the self-help industries and in general online.

We all put off following our dreams- fear of failure is a big reason for this. But if you could not fail what would you be doing in life?

I say dream big and keep your dreams alive. Don't let yourself or anyone else tell you that your dreams are unrealistic or impossible to reach, including yourself. The dreams I have are epic.

The truth is that as we grow into our adult hood and fall into the rat wheel of life, chasing our tails just to keep our head above water yet inevitably just going around in circles, our dreams fade. We mustn’t let go of them.

To hustle or not to hustle, perhaps there is no in-between. I have my own thoughts on this word and am still not sure if I actually like it. It's not the word itself or it's meaning but perhaps the context and manner in which it is used. I share my thoughts in this book reflection.

The term hustle to me means to work freaking hard in a forceful way to have greater achievement. I believe that if taken too literally it can find people living to viciously in the future and therefor missing our the benefits of being present and now. I also believe that if we enjoy what we do the term loses its meaning. When you do what you love it becomes less forceful, no matter how hard or how long the hours that you dedicate to your art.
