Ep 119 The Role that Your Past Plays in a Fulfilling Midlife Career
Welcome to my takeaway from my conversation with Chris Brogan on episode 118.
Chris Brogan catapulted to internet fame around 2008. His book Trust Agents became a New York Times & Wall Street Journal Bestseller and he began speaking everywhere, and seemingly overnight, he was an internet sensation.
Here are 3 key discussion points from our conversation:
1️⃣ Don't constrain yourself
2️⃣ Fail well
3️⃣ Value your connections
I can relate to Chris’ story and I open up about that in this takeaway episode. My hope is that by me opening up, you’ll think about how these principles apply in your life. After all, my mission is to help people thrive in midlife.
I personally reveal the current state of my five pillars: health, fitness, career, relationships, and legacy, and how my past chapters are markers for my current midlife season.
I remind you of the BHAG I shared with you on episode 101 and how I'm laying the foundation to achieve it.
And, I challenge you to look at your own chapters and how they are markers for your current season. I suggest you ask yourself what are you doing with this insight.
