Description
In this episode, I share a new journaling practice that I've recently started that involves answering four specific questions. This practice has been an absolute game-changer for me, and I believe it can profoundly impact your life and work too.
Inspired by her previous episode on the Fun-O-Meter, I emphasize the importance of asking meaningful and substantial questions to shape the trajectory of our lives. These questions are designed to align the inner compass of your environmental work and creative flow toward your true purpose in a way that delivers the best energy, ideas, and momentum you have to change the world.
Take out a journal and start brainstorming your thoughts on these four master questions:
1. What's "The Big Why" behind what you do?
2. What's the amazing vision, destination, and goal you are working towards? What is the "vast and endless sea" you are inviting people to join you on?
3. What's the most fun thing you could do to work towards this goal?
4. What's "The One Thing" you need to do now to make it happen?
Push yourself to write 10, 20, or even 100 responses to each of these questions. If you're busy, just write down one answer to each. This practice will set your direction in the most authentic and resonant path for you. This is the place all the best momentum, ideas, and progress comes from.

In this episode, I share the secret to building your mission. You need to START by building a funnel, not an idea. If you're building an idea, campaign, or product and not building it as a funnel, you could be making a big mistake. Listen in, I'll share how to do it right.
