Episode 45: Meaning of Life
12/07/22 • 18 min
What is one of the most important questions you could ever ask yourself? What is the meaning of life? Now, I’m not here to tell you the answer to this question because you are the only one that can answer this for yourself. It is your life! No one gets to tell you this answer. No one to blame then, either.
· How does your answer to this question affect you?
o Drives your motivationsàbeliefsàemotionsàbehaviors and relationships
o Ex. Being happy. Loving others. Accumulating wealth. Living purely.
· If you don’t have an answer to this question...or you do not believe there is meaning to life...
o First, you will find something (most likely be happy. Way you go about that might be different)
o If you didn’t have an answer: you will go about aimless without an answer to this question...
· You don’t get to tell others what it is for them. No control only influence. Share your story. They decide what to take away. Same for you.
· When basing the answer of the meaning of life on what you do versus who you are, things can get mixed up.
o What you do changes over time...you will never have perfect behaviors/actions
· Be careful to base your answer on something that stays constant. What you do changes...
o Ex. Growth & learning through experience is consistent.
How does your answer to “what is the meaning of life” help you LEAD Lucky? Allows you to prioritize your life better. If profit is the meaning of life versus guiding others to their best selves under your leadership then how you lead will be different.
Closing: What is one thing you will take away from the episode today? What will you do?

Episode 44: Intention Giving
When you are trying to change your life, many belief systems discuss giving. Intention is the new desired outcome (material, experiential, relational, mental/emo). Giving to get. In Christianity, lent is observed as a way to fast and give up something to help you change your spiritual life. The discipline of willingly giving something up has many positive ripple effects. Book, LLT, podcast...
· #1 – Most times, individuals give up something they really enjoy, but often things take up time and energy (physical, mental (thought life), and emotional).
o Ex. Activity (time) – giving up social media or softball.
o Ex. Artifact (material) – letting go of something of value (money, trinket of value to you)
· #2 – shows how serious you are about the change. Important for self and others. Positive reinforcement.
· #3 – This time/energy given up can then be redirected to what you want or your Intention.
o Stopping softball league to spend time building relationship
· #4 – Expression of faith and trust.
o Forces you to let go and trust that it is going to be a positive outcome. Crucial for change.
How does intention giving help you LEAD Lucky? Frees up your time and energy to invest in the outcome you desire for your family or team you lead.
