There are some days (years) where it can feel so hard to find your purpose in life. You feel adrift. And checked out. Everyone around you is making progress, and you are standing still.

Luckily, Hunter S. Thompson wrote a letter in 1968 to directly answer the question "how do you find your purpose?" And today on the pod, we'll take three tenets of that letter to get closer to finding our purpose from his no-bs formula.

Why do so many artists fail? It’s not because of their art. It’s because of their *mindset.

If you’ve ever wondered how to become a successful artist, the first thing to do is to accept the artists’s journey. Accept that the path is winding, long, and somewhat confusing. But that’s not the same as impossible.

In today’s episode, we’ll talk about being stuck — whether you feel stuck in your creative process or feel stuck in your career. We’ll use two philosophies — Carl Jung’s theory of the Transcendent Function, and a very simple and powerful way to reach goals with Inversion Thinking. And at the end, we’ll put it all together into a fast, practical exercise to help you get unstuck.

*Also capitalism, but that’s another episode for another day!

If you have ever googled "I don't know what to do with my life" then you're in the right place. Sure, you have goals on goals on goals. But time & energy are in short supply. And the burnout-self doubt playlist is on repeat. And considering which step to take next is enough for you to make like Elsa and freeze.

That's because you aren't taking the traditional path. You're taking something much more convoluted. (And more rewarding.)

You're an indie creative. You want to take a big swing. So what makes a difference in your life is what you do. And what you do is a symptom of how you think.

This is Let's Go Again.
