Hey YOU, beautiful person reading this...The truth is you are confident and good enough already with who you are, where you are at and what you have right now to have the success you want in life. Don't let others define what “success” is for you. Get up, learn that skill and go after it! I believe in you so much! Have an awesome day! - Love, Nat ❤️

@shaneturner7165 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing. I believe that when we can find our WHY, why we do what we do, we find inner strength to survive even toughest days.

@Gu4rdiaanAngel 2 года назад

Unfortunately living in a generation of people where Friendships get discarded at the slightest sight of trouble or are just "blocked" away by ghosting it is very difficult to find anyone I would trust in such a manner. I would only trust the members of my family and my spouse. So in that case, defining my why falls to me on my own - and I have failed to articulate that since I have started watching Simon. I have read the books multiple times, I have watched all the talks Simon has given (also an unhealthy amount of times) and I could not figure it out. I have given up on finding it and just letting life decide if it will eventually show me or not. But I still appreciate all your ideas and tips and trick Simon, they have been nothing short of outstanding as my role in leadership increased over time. Keep it up!

@zzeegermantube Год назад

I share this criticism. In his videos and interviews he always gives this example and hints at there being more methods in his book etc. But since you have read his books and haven't been able to find your "why", it sounds to me like there aren't really any other methods in his books. The problem is that this not only requires friends, which many of us will have, but it requires good friends that will be there for you no matter what. "What specifically is it about me, that I know you'll be there for me, no matter what?" Assumes that person will be there for you. Requires you being able to assume that they will be there for you. Plus he fails to define what he means by being there for someone. Just listening or more? It's extremely frustrating that he beats about the bush so much.

@the_floating_kiwi Год назад

I've just finished his "Start with Why" and moving to the newer "Leaders Eat Last". I thought his "Start with why" was full of examples and I agrees, its really hard to figure out how to find your own WHY from it, but one part of the book stood out. Simon found his own why, and it states in his book, that to find it, he needed look back at his life, to figure out what was always the emotion in everything he did (in his case to inspire), in all his scenarios. Im curious, as this comment is a year old, if you ever found your Why, or at least, how its all progressed for you since?

Life is not primarily a quest for pleasure,as Freud Believed,or a quest for power as Alfred Adler taught,but a quest for meaning.The greatest task for any person is to find a meaning in his or her life.Frankl saw three possible sources for meaning :in work(Doing something significant),in love(Caring for another person),and in courage during difficult times.Suffering in and of itself is meaningless.We give our suffering meaning by the way in which we respond to it. ‐Victor E.Frankl Man's search for Meaning.

@Brightnessize 2 года назад

True. Then your why is not just your aim but also what others see as your aim from outside of your inner self. It’s the goal of your pursuit, professionally and personally. But not everybody has a big relevant why. Some people’s why is simpler. And smaller. Because their ambitions grew small. And that’s it...

Love your content. :) Disagree with the fact that a why doesn't change. Our why is our purpose and we pick it, not the other way around. Even using your words: The why is the sum total of who we are. If the why can't change, then that means we can't change and this is something I personally disagree with and flies in the face of any growth mindset.

I see myself in my 15 year old son - so desperate to find out who you are and why you exist. I am quite sure this is common for most young people. How would you meet these questions? The same way you meet older folks, or do you have to adjust the message according to their maturity?

@michaelnurse9089 2 года назад

Spiritual teachers have always known that 'your why' is really who you are - your personality and body are just temporary constructs for 'your why' to live a single life. You can improve 'your why' over a lifetime if you work hard at it - but often a life is just wasted and you must wait for the next one. Rather than calling it 'your why' the often call it the 'i am'. or the 'you are'.

@Tribu_Solo 2 года назад

Can a WHY change? I think it can. Once a person started to dig deeper into his own self-discovery, he will start to change and discard part of his personalities that no longer serves or works for him. That is why we will tend to lose people in the process because as we change, we will no longer fill up the same space we once occupy in their lives.

I’ve read “Finding Your Why” and I’m so frustrated that there’s no description anywhere of how to do this without inconveniencing another person. I’ve read and watched so much of this work, I truly admire his take on most things, but assuming everyone has the courage, availability, and access to take up another person’s time and energy and do an entire therapy exercise with them (which is how the book tells you to do it) is excluding a large portion of the population, especially post-Covid. I’m willing to do the work, but as soon as another person is involved I lose focus and can’t be as honest. Please please please Simon, how do I do this on my own?

Unfortunately, not everyone is blessed to have a genuine friend that will have their backs. The only thing one can do is be a good friend and hope one day someone will value your friendship. But that still doesn’t ensure they will pick up your phone at 3 am and not have their cell in “night mode - silent”.

Maybe because I am from a different culture, but the question/ approach sounded a bit narcissistic. Anyone?

Don't agree - first off, what's your WHY in what context? Context is key - if you're talking about our Why to exist (i.e. purpose) - that can definitely change and if you're conflating your why with ones value - that's still vague and can change -when we change how we value ourselves, our Why then would change, since our perception changes, and therefore the impact we have on people changes. As for our Why and reason for existing - life is inherently meaningful - so on that level- the WHY is built in and if you're talking about a personal Why or Purpose in life that can come from what we find valuable and how we come to convey that value is what people reflect back to us as our value - that too can change.
