What Is A Culture? Finding Purpose With Your Business

Listen Later

This episode comes to you from just outside Ubud in Bali, where I (Rex) am soaking up the Balinese culture. 

I’m blessed to be able to spend time in Bali, as I have done for many years now. From my journey that I’ve travelled so far, I’ve also come to know the native Dayak people of Kalimantan, Borneo, and the people devoting their lives to supporting others and things they believe in. 

One thing I’ve come to realise is that all these people have complete ownership and absolute commitment to the cause they believe in. 

We’ll be exploring this in more detail with a series of interviews. But for now, we want to take a look at selflessness and the human spirit and the correlation with your business, career and families. 

Episode highlights:

  • You are a culture which needs preserving just like any other culture
  • Your life is a culture based on principles and wisdoms 
  • There will always be ups and downs that will test you and put your ‘culture’ under threat
  • Recognising the parallels between the Dayak people and our clients’ lives
  • Forging a journey through business isn’t always easy - take a minute to really think about what’s at stake
  • Inside humanity there is a deep essence; there is a calling
  • Your business is a mechanism for you to build deep sustainability and values and purpose and beliefs and vision
  • You are forging your purpose with your business - it’s sacred so treat it as such
  • The importance of collaborating with others
  • The authority to think and the capacity to make choices is a gift
