When Work Feels Like Going Through the Motions
Four out of five Americans wake up dreading Monday morning. They drag themselves to jobs that pay the bills but drain their souls. Meanwhile, a small percentage of people-and certain rare companies-seem to operate on a different frequency entirely. They're energized, passionate, and deeply fulfilled. What separates these two groups? It's not talent, luck, or circumstances. It's clarity about something most of us have never articulated: our fundamental purpose. This isn't about finding your passion or following your bliss-it's about understanding the biological and psychological foundation of what makes you come alive. When you discover your WHY, everything shifts. Decisions become clearer, relationships deepen, and Monday mornings transform from something to survive into something that matters.
