How Are You Facing Challenges
Episode #620 July 13, 2018
Hi, this is Dan Miller – and yes you’re listening to the 48 Days Radio show – where each week we take 48 minutes to dive into real life questions about finding your passion, deciding what kind of life you want to live – and then finding or creating work that allows you to show up every day, excited to be able to do something that is meaningful, fulfilling – and profitable. This is where normal, indecision and ambiguity come to die. Welcome to the 48 Days Radio Show.
All years have at least one Friday the 13th, but the most a year can have is three.
This year, April 13 was a Friday and today, July 13th, is the only other one we’ll have this year.
This is Gruntled Workers Day July 13, 2018 — There’s so much news about disgruntled workers that today’s the day for Gruntled Workers to Unite! Drive to a fast food restaurant and say, “Thanks, your service is fast. Have a nice day.”
Questions:
1. Dan, my podcast led to the job I love.
2. How can I help the ladies in Mississippi who are hopeless and lost?
3. I was just fired from a small business after 15 years. How do I answer the question: “Why did you leave your last employer?
4. I get excited about everything going on, have a site set up, but have been frozen under a type of paralyzing fear that has consumed me for years.
Quotation:
“I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.” – Steve Jobs
Call to Action – what are you doing today to enter the most creative period of your life?
