If you feel bored with your own story, bored with life, or feel like your life is a story you are not enjoying right now, you need to hear this episode.
Donald Miller returns to Creating Disney Magic to talk about his new book, Hero on a Mission.
Don shares the three stories he is living with his life. When you know what story you are living, you know what you won’t do. You get more clarity in your life. You have a filter to help you make decisions.
Many people struggle when one story in their life ends and they don’t start a new story. When there is a void in your mind about your story, it becomes hard to know what to do next.
“Meaning is only experienced in motion,” Don says. In order to feel fulfilled, you have to take action to feel you are doing something worthwhile.
Every morning, Don reads his eulogy to remind him of what he will regret not doing. It keeps him actively involved in his story.
At one point during my career, I realized what my reputation was. People called me “Doberman” because of how I treated people. My mother and grandmother would have not been proud of me. It led to me changing my approach towards people. Using Hero on a Mission, you can write a eulogy worth living up to. You won’t need an incident to shock you into a change.
Here on a Mission could be Donald Miller’s best book yet. You can get it here.
