The Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast
Order of operations
The speaker emphasizes the importance of having a strong faith, particularly in Catholicism, which shapes the core of their life including daily practices like going to mass and praying the Rosary with their spouse. Their faith intrinsically influences their work in neuroscience and social psychology, teaching the science of happiness. The concept of 'order of operations' guides their decisions, focusing on glorifying God, serving others, embarking on adventures, and making a living, in that order. They stress that work should prioritize glorifying God and serving others before personal gains. The speaker notes a resurgence in evangelical Christianity exploring spiritual disciplines akin to Ignatian or Franciscan spirituality.
