There’s a deep irony that happens to people who chase validation and power at all costs: They’re the ones who end up exhausted, paranoid, alone, burnt out, bitter, and resentful in the long-term. If it hasn't happened yet, it’s only a matter of time.
The trouble is, many high achievers fall into this insidious trap of self-sabotage. You may have even noticed some of the signs starting to emerge in your life.
There is a solution to this. A way where you build trust with your inner system, and get peace as the result. But it won’t be easy.
The solution?
Developing your sense of moral character and staying consistent to your values, even when (or perhaps especially when) it’s hard.
In today’s show, you’ll discover why moral character is a prerequisite to living a long and happy life, the real world cost to your body and health when you don’t live in accordance to your values, and why your morality can give you a deeper meaning of success.
Listen now.
