Description

“I always tell people today, anywhere you are in your life, you need something in front of you to pull you, otherwise your paths will take you and bring you back,” explains Tony Grebmeier, serial entrepreneur and owner operator of the Be Fulfilled journal and app. 

In this episode we discuss the concepts of drivers and drainers and how they factor into long term success. 

Tony was struggling to feel fulfilled by his life. As debt piled up and he saw any way out close off, he began to contemplate suicide. Luckily, a good friend called Tony right as he was writing his suicide note and changed his mindset completely. He explained to Tony that his life has value and purpose, but that how he was choosing to live it at that time did not. 

After this mindset shift, Tony began seeking personal fulfillment. He started to think about the driving forces that were pushing him forward and conversely thinking about the draining forces that were sucking the energy from him. 

When we can recognize what drives us and what drains us, then we can be more mindful about how we choose to spend our time. Instead of making a bunch of excuses, change your perspective and think about what you might be able to achieve if you were brave enough to try.
