What is the Cult of Average? Today, my friend and guest Tom Davis liberates our thinking by guiding us to a values-based operating system for our lives.

A \\u2018pay the rent\\u2019 lifestyle is one that is based on living life for other people. It\'s about paying the rent, paying my bills, going to my job, doing what everybody else tells me. What happens is, slowly but surely, I start to erode away. I start to disappear because the things that matter to me, my core values, the \\u2018why I do what I do,\\u2019 there is no time for them anymore. There\'s no me because I\'m just trying to survive.

That\'s the problem with survival mode; all you\'re doing is getting through the day. You go home and you collapse and say, "I was so busy working, but what did I actually do that mattered?"
