The Gyst Life - A podcast about how to live your best life

Who controls the flow of money in your life?

What do you know about commercial banking vs private banking? Yes, that’s a thing.

When it comes to managing money, we are always taught to go to someone else. You want to invest, go see a stockbroker or mutual fund advisor, you need money? Go borrow from a Bank. One of my mentors, R. Nelson Nash says that if you don’t understand the problem, the solution just won’t matter. Most people, including financial advisors, do not understand the problem we’re facing today.

The problem is BANKING and the solution is also BANKING. More specifically, the solution is changing who controls the banking function in your life.

You know you’re on your path to purpose if you’re enjoying it. If you’re not, keep opening different doors.

This path to purpose is one that Laurie has been on for a long time and when she asks herself if she’s found her purpose yet, she is reminded of the fact that for her she really enjoys taking the meandering path of getting somewhere. Whether it’s traveling or studying for her it’s been about the journey

But for some of us it’s a real challenge to work that practice into our lives. We’ve been told at one point or another of all this potential we have and so faced with this pressure of getting to the end faster for fear of wasting this untapped precious resource. Yet still lacking the clarity of what IT is for us. Laurie shares some really great perspectives on how to handle those that mean well along the way to purpose.

For Laurie It took getting a degree in economics under her belt to see there were other doors that still needed, wanted to be opened.

Keep going! You’re well on your way.

Perspective. What’s yours and how do you share it? Sometimes that’s all it takes for another person to see something they’ve never seen before and completely changes how we view the world and our place in it.

The funny thing about that perspective is that it was always there, the only thing that changed was your ability to see it.

Everyone has a backstory, some of us in a leadership role have lost touch with that story. Our focus is likely in the day or in the future out of the necessity of the role we’ve assumed. What happens over time is we lose connection to our purpose. We find ourselves asking why we’re doing this and what’s the point?

Jenn and Richard dig in on episode 8 of a special series on purpose on #TheGystLife

Who are you?

Understanding who you are is not a one and done event. Who you were 5, 10 even 20 years ago is not who you will continue to be for the next 30. Human beings are always in a constant state of change and growth. How you lean in and embrace those changes makes all the difference.

As is finding the right people who are aligned with what you’re looking to achieve. So who’s around you on the journey? Who we are and who shows up around us will contribute significantly to the direction you go in.

Today we talk with Lisa and Jen from Candy Event Consulting. Their purpose is helping others express theirs through the events they plan with their clients. They are the organization helping us to create an amazing experience for A Day on Purpose.

Be ok with you.

Some of the coolest people you’ll ever meet are figuring it out. What’s cool is that they’re all in and trying to figure it out and what you’ll realize if you don’t yet already is that discovery is really cool. Whether it’s your PhD or an extreme sport It’s not about what you’re doing but why you’re doing it. What do you LOVE about what you’re involved in? The performance is a very fleeting thing, but the experience of why you’re in it and what you’ve been called to experience and the adversity of the journey, THAT is it.

You cannot add up the numbers like you would a goal. Your purpose does not have numbers attached to it. It has values, contributions, experience but It is not a quantified measure.

EVENT DETAILS *UPDATE*:

On June 20th, the first ever “Day on Purpose Conference” will be happening here in Calgary.
