We all want to change the world. We want to have an impact. But why? Because the world need is?
It sure does. But there is something else.
It is a need for feeling important [significance].
It's an urge for power and control [certainty] and for risk and excitement [uncertainty].
We may have a feeling it may cause someone to want to be with us [connection/love]
But it is only going to serve the world if we also have the urge to serve others and to give [contribution] and it drives us to overcome our shortcomings and limitations [growth].
This is where the good stuff is. According to rockstar-coach Tony Robbins, this is where happiness and fulfilment is. We dive into the motivation of wanting to change the world. WHY we want it. Why it matters to do something that matters, create real value - by your own definition - and not chase the dollar.
"You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be
All right, all right, all right" John Lennon
About Live Your Legend
Live Your Legend springs from the optimism of creating your own success doing something out of passion and defining your own measure of what success is to you. Inherent in this philosophy is the thought that if you believe in doing something that matters, help enough people and make a positive difference, and have an impact, the money will come to you.
We believe the world would be an altogether different place if we all did work that actually mattered to us. This way of life is more possible than you think, especially when you surround yourself with people who are already doing it. We want to welcome you to that new world – into a community where people are finding and doing work that they love. Join us in building that culture and that community, share your wildest dreams, get fired up and committed to make it happen and dent the world.
"We Don’t Do Things For The Money - We Believe In Everything We Do"
