Let’s talk about how to form new habits that stick. Okay, okay, I’m curious... raise your hand if you were totally fired up at the beginning of this month to start afresh, change your life, or maybe flip one or two bad habits into better ones? Yup, me too. Now, keep your hand raised if you stuck with it all?

Energetically, I just felt a ton of hands went down all around the world... woof, me too! I think if we step back and zoom out a bit, we’d see that there is so much more at play here then what we thought at first glance.

Why do we, as humans, seem to have a hard time setting and sticking with new habits? Listen in to today's episode to find out why and what we can do to change that.

216: How to find deeper purpose in life - with Dan Millman (PART TWO)

Earlier this week, we shared part one of this conversation, all about how to find deeper purpose in life. And I feel like all of it is so divinely timed. This entire month, we’ve been simplifying topics in and around this realm to find clarity on the year ahead. From creating a vision board to visualizing a new path for your life ahead, my hope is that my conversation with Dan Millman has dropped down a few new seeds of inspiration as you uncover your deeper purpose in life today and beyond.

Now, if you haven’t heard part one, go back and listen to that one first. But if you’re ready to continue on, let’s pick back up here with my conversation with author Dan Millman as he simplifies how to find deeper purpose in life.

It’s time to simplify...

Here’s how.

My special guest today is Dan Millman and he’s simplifying how to find deeper purpose in life.

We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:

As a young man early on, he learned a valuable life lesson: “Stop thinking about it and jump!” Dan shares this childhood memory and how that phrase has guided him over his lifetime
How he defines the “human spirit” and why we humans yearn to find deeper purpose in life, unlike any other mammals that we know of
What the four purposes of life are:
- Learning life’s lessons
- Finding your career & calling
- Discovering your life path
- Attending to this arising moment
Through his spiritual quest over his lifetime, Dan encountered four mentors: The Professor, The Guru, The Warrior-Priest, and The Sage. He shares what he learned from each and why it’s important to find a mentor to help you uncover your purpose
...and ultimately, what it means to have a “peaceful heart” and a “warrior spirit” in life. How to incorporate this in a simple, practical way into your work and life

Just a quick bit of love to you, our listeners at The Simplifiers Podcast!
