The Strategic Living Podcast with Brian Holmes

There are certain things we are uniquely wired to care about, be moved by, or even be consumed with. It’s in our DNA to take interest in certain things. We were born with internal guidance that pulls us toward those interests by default. Today, we're going to really explore those things you are naturally drawn to and deeply care about, and discuss how these things are an indication of who you are, and why you are here.

Consider the possibility you are carrying an idea, a solution, or a life-changing message someone else is waiting to hear. While I won't get into the science of how the mind works, I will tell you we tend to dial our truth and possibilities DOWN to the level of our internal belief structures. Today, I want to start at the beginning. I want to start with you! What is YOUR unique value in the world? Is it really possible to channel your passions, interests, experience, and wisdom into meaningful work? This episode will explore this very question in great detail.

There are people in this world who, frankly, do not have reasonable values, morals, or lifestyles, yet they succeed, prosper, and impact their environment with tremendous effectiveness. How does this happen? Simple. There are laws at work which transcend my opinion or stance on certain things. If a person abides by certain principles and executes on those principles and laws, they will reap the rewards of those principles. It's so important for those of us who do have high standards, values, etc. to be influencing those around us, and succeeding in what we do and how we live. Therefore, we also must adopt, follow, and execute on certain principles! Today, I want to share a few principles and factors which are paramount to success.
