Nic Bittle: Life and Leadership

What Drives You? | Chapter 34 of Know This Do That


Listen Later

Nic and Tarina open the episode talking about their trip to Aruba. Nic comments on how he got a little sunburned—even after applying sunscreen every hour. And Tarina cringed at how their swimsuits were too matchy-matchy.

Be sure to listen to the surprise Tarina found for Nic: An inflatable butt-mat. “Seat cushion,” Tarina corrects him. 

The question behind “What drives you?” is “Why do you do what you do?” 

Tarina became a nurse because she wanted to help people. Nic is a speaker because he wants to make a difference. 

Nic quotes his son, Cruze, from one of his TikTok videos: “The fastest way to kill something is to compare it something else.”

We can easily fall into the trap of bigger is better or more is better. The first step is to look back before you look forward. Nic shares how he was always chasing money but then spoke to a high school graduating class. It’s where he felt the most alive and it fueled his drive.

If you’re looking for your why, remember that “purpose leaves clues in our past” and tied to our emotions.
