Finding your WHY is one of the most important exercises you can do.
“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche
“The two most important days in your life are the day you are born, and the day you find out why.”
- Mark Twain
How do you do it?
This technique gets to the root of your WHY by asking yourself WHY 7 times around you BIG goal in life.
You can learn astonishing things about yourself and your motivations when you ask WHY. You peel back layers and get clear on WHY you do what you do.
It's easier to take action when you know your WHY
♢♢♢
Sounds easy?
Well...it can be quite difficult to do...your ego may get in the way.
You may encounter regrets. Hang-ups. Or limiting beliefs you didn't even know you had.
As you get down further with each WHY you move from logical answers to answers from your heart.
♢♢♢
Doing this myself:
I found it got pretty tricky at the 4 and 5th WHY when looking at my life.
It gets very personal. You ask questions you may not feel prepared to answer.
This isn't some...take 10 minutes quick and easy technique.
It can be emotional to get through.
♢♢♢
The high-level answer to my WHY:
"I wanted to be successful and have more freedom...time...money in my life."
Who doesn't want that?
The following WHY's were still high-level:
Wanting to provide for my family.
Wanting to become the person I know I can be.
♢♢♢
By the 4th WHY...
I ended up reflecting on my education.
I got frustrated easily in classrooms. I felt like I only enjoyed sports.
Since I thought I was not gifted academically. I didn't imagine I could be successful.
I wanted to prove the system and my limiting beliefs wrong.
♢♢♢
I kept going.
By the time I got to the 7th WHY I was feeling emotionally involved in the final answer I came down to:
"I don't want to waste a life."
I went from wanting personal freedom through reflection and emotional baggage.
To realize I don't want to waste my life.
♢♢♢
Now I have kept some things to myself.
As this is a very personal process.
But finding my WHY changed how I viewed my life.
I instantly saw less value in:
• Partying
• Wasting money
• Mindless actions
I saw more value in my time and desired to take action.
♢♢♢
It's been 10 years since I first did this exercise.
My WHY has got clearer. I have connected deeper to it. It has helped me take a metric sh*t ton of action.
Knowing your WHY is a powerful concept every business owner should have defined.
♢♢♢
I would recommend blocking out some time.
Grab a journal and do this exercise. Write down what you want in your life and business. The high-level overarching goal.
Then ask yourself WHY 7 times.
It is a great way to reinvigorate your focus and bring clarity to your life.
♢♢♢
Your WHY is your North Star.
In life and in business...
When you combine it with clear goals.
Solid daily and weekly structure.
And operate in 90-day sprints you will become unstoppable.
Big love,
