How Can You be Truly Happy? The Answers Are Simple…

How can you be truly happy? Loving Later Life listeners: join me as I unpack the steps to what will make you happy (and they’re likely not what you’re expecting) according to Gay Hendricks NYT best-selling author.  

Gay Hendricks is the author of The Genius Zone which picks up from the work in his book, The Big Leap. Learn about what is holding us back and what we can do about it so that we can live a life we love. He explains that it is within all of us to get there. You are in the driver’s seat. It’s up to you. 

If you are serious about enjoying your life, don’t miss this episode.

Not be missed take-ways:

1. We all have fears, and those fears can only be loved away. Hendricks says to let them be, embrace them, let the energy serve you in some way.

2. If there’s something inside that you haven’t dealt with, it’s like driving through life with the break on.

3. The Upper Limit Problem not only prevents happiness, but it actually stops us from achieving our goals. It is the ultimate life roadblock.

4. Being in the Genius zone is doing what you most love to do. This is the biggest leap. It’s doing what you’re uniquely suited to do. What do you love to do?

5. The moment we open up and accept ourselves exactly the way we are; that is the front door to the universe.

6. Starting with 10 minutes a day, ask yourself what do I most love to do. Take 3 easy breaths. Then ask again.

And your mission, that I hope you’ll choose to accept…

I think that taking things in small steps makes accomplishing something less overwhelming. So, for this mission, start by looking inward and be honest with yourself.

1) Write down what fears you have that are holding you back. What is keeping your foot on the break?

2) As you look at your list of fears, think about how you can love them, accept them, acknowledge them and let them be. This is the first hurdle to you living a fulfilling and happy life.

3) Try what he suggested. For 10 minutes a day ask yourself, what do I most love to do. Take 3 easy breaths. Then ask again.
