This is also a time where you can see what changes you need to make to make sure next year is even better.

A lot of people don't really understand generosity. It's looked at as something you do exclusively for others without gaining much benefit yourself. With this understanding of generosity, it's not surprising why many people don't find themselves being generous often. However, when you truly understand the power of generosity, you'll never look at life the same way again. Being generous has profound impacts on both the giver and receiver. And those who behave more generously often live more successful lives. Obviously, I'm big on generosity (I did a whole TedX talk on the subject). But I wanted to dive deep on the science of the subject so I decided to bring Dr. Nicole Roberts on today's episode. Dr. Roberts is the author of the new book "Generosity Wins".

I'm really excited for this episode so make sure you give it a listen and take notes. In today's episode you'll learn: -Why generosity is a superpower. -How to be generous to yourself. -How the benefits of generosity compound over time. -And much, much more. Enjoy!

Are you happy in your business? It might be surprising to hear, but many entrepreneurs would answer “no” to the above question. Which can be baffling considering how much time we spend working endlessly to become successful. But once we achieve what we set out to achieve, we can easily be left feeling empty. Trust me friend, this is not an emotion you want to experience. And it’s not even the only negative emotion that can be tied to success. There’s burnout, overwhelm, anxiety, and a long list filled with emotional experiences that even the most successful among us have to contend with. The question is, how do we avoid it? Well, that’s the reason why I invited Cary Jack onto today’s episode. Cary is the host of the “Happy Hustle” podcast where he reminds listeners to enjoy the journey of building their business instead of focusing on the destination. In my conversation with Cary I go deep on just how he’s been able to avoid the above emotions and instead live a life of joy and fulfillment. So if you want to experience the same, I highly recommend giving this episode a listen. In this episode you’ll learn: How Cary avoids burnout (and how you can too). How to use the 10 alignments to get your life back on track. Why Cary thinks being in nature is a hack to experiencing more joy. And much, much more. Enjoy!
