Most people wait until they hit their breaking point before doing inner work—when the pain of staying the same finally feels worse than the pain of changing. But what if you didn't have to wait? In this episode, I explain why 99% of people are motivated by pain (and why that's the harder path), how your emotions focus on short-term survival instead of long-term thriving, and why the "right time" will never come if you keep waiting. I walk you through the two types of pain, the pain of change versus the pain of regret, and show you how to avoid your breaking point altogether by making purpose your motivator instead of pain.







In this episode, we explore:




Why emotions choose short-term comfort over long-term happiness (and how this keeps you stuck)



The breaking point: when pain forces you to change or break



Why waiting for a "better moment" means things only get worse



How to make the path of changing less painful than staying the same



Purpose as a motivator: moving from survival mode to growth mode








Actionable Takeaways:




Ask yourself: what will my breaking point look like if I wait? Do I want to get there?



Plant the tree today—the best time was 10 years ago, but now is the best available time



Connect with your purpose (even if it's just the purpose of finding your purpose) and let that move you forward








I'd love to hear from you. Are you motivated by pain or purpose right now? What's keeping you from starting today? Share in our community or tag me on social.







If this episode helped you see why waiting makes things worse, share it with someone who's stuck waiting for the "right time." Help them understand that now is always the best time available.







And remember: may you be happy and do good, and may you be happy doing good.
