In the white collar world, the skills and lessons that make us professionally successful aren’t designed to help us lead happy, balanced lives. But how can we fill in these learning gaps this late in the game? According to recent guest Charles Price, it’s all about rewiring our minds and staying present. Listen in to some stories and tips about how to rewire your relationship with yourself and your career for authentic balance and contentment.

TAKEAWAYS

• Not only are there gaps in our professional training, but in many ways, these lessons can steer us away from the things that we need to live contented and balanced lives.

• Students are taught to analyze the past and strategize for the future but never to live in the present.

• We tend to minimize all of our wins and successes while, at the same time, we obsess about our defeats and mistakes, so our “bank balance” inevitably becomes radically overdrawn.

• So many people say that their motivation is money, a promotion, a job, a position, or this recognition, but that doesn’t seem to work like finding a motivation that is “bigger than yourself.”

• We have power over what our inner voices say to us, but we often don't exercise that power.
