201 Discover your WHY: Interview with Dr. Gary Sanchez

Aug 9, 2024

Have you ever found yourself pursuing a career or other endeavor and asking, “Is this all there is?” Many of us live our lives by default – following paths because we have found success with them, or because we’re trying to live up to the expectations that others may have for us. However, this approach often leads to feelings of burnout, dissatisfaction, or a lack of passion. A more fulfilling alternative is to start with finding your “why,” or the underlying motivation that drives everything you do. 

After building a successful dentistry practice, Dr. Gary Sanchez realized that there was something bigger he was meant to be doing with his life. He is now an international speaker, author, inventor, and founder and CEO of the WHY Institute. He is best known as Dr. WHY for discovering the nine WHYs and creating the world's first why discovery tool, an online assessment that helps people accurately discover their why in under five minutes. Dr. Sanchez is the author of the book, “The Power of the 9 WHYs: How People and Teams Get Clear, Stand Out and Play Bigger,” and he is now on a mission to help one billion people unleash their true selves by discovering their WHY operating system, or what he calls WHY.os. In Episode 201 of The Mindset Game® podcast, Dr. Sanchez discusses the following:

  • How discovering your why can help you access greater energy, passion, and success in what you do, as well as techniques to help you find your why
  • The 9 WHYs, all of which live inside each of us – yet we each have one why that surfaces more strongly than the others
  • The relationship between your why (motivation), your how (process), and your what (deliverable)
