If you ask a room full of people with jobs why they go to work, what do you think their answer would be?\xa0 Probably something like, \u201cTo pay the bills\u2026 because I have to\u2026 because I have an addiction to living indoors with plumbing\u2026\u201d
If you ask entrepreneurs why they work, what will THEY say? Probably something like, \u201cBecause I love my business\u2026 I\u2019m doing what I love\u2026 I\u2019m on a mission\u2026\u201d
But pose the question differently and see what happens. Ask those same entrepreneurs privately, if they won the Powerball and a got a $25M windfall, what are the first 5 things they would do\u2026 and one of the top items on that list is ALWAYS \u201cget rid of this business.\u201d
In this episode, we\u2019re going to get to the root of this problem and help you live a more authentic life starting right now.
Recently I\u2019ve been re-reading the classic book Psycho-Cybernetics by Dr. Maxwell Maltz. Dr. Maltz popularized the idea of self-image and its effect on performance. There's a difference between self-esteem and self-image. Your self-esteem is how you appraise your value, your self-image is simply the picture you have of yourself.
Who do you think you are?
There's an ancient proverb that says, \u201cAs a man thinks in his heart, so is he.\u201d Jesus said, \u201cOut of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.\u201d I believe what He was saying is, what you say reveals who you think you are.

If you consistently find yourself behaving in a way that you don\u2019t want to behave\u2026 you must look closely at your \u201csecret identity.\u201d You\u2019ll find that somewhere you hold conflicting views that cannot exist in the same person. You are at war with yourself, and you are at war with reality.
The masses lead lives of quiet contradictions. That is the pattern of the ordinary behavior of the world. It\u2019s why the Apostle Paul wrote \u201cDon\u2019t be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be TRANSFORMED by the renewing of your mind\u2026\u201d
We renew our minds by thinking different thoughts. How do you do this?
In this episode, we do a deep dive on all of this\u2026trust me when I say that you don\u2019t want to miss this.

Why? Because they feel trapped by their business and they go to work in their business for the same reason that people go to work at a job, to pay the bills.
So, if money were no longer a concern\u2026
