The Winning End Of A Strikeout: Using Faith To Discover The Futility Of Tying Our Identity To A Dream with Former MLB Pitcher, Josh Kalinowski
Manage episode 354120881 series 3402534
To those of you who strive to achieve your dreams at all costs but feel like your life is over the moment you even slightly fail, it’s time to reevaluate what your purpose might actually be. Today, with the support of my guest, CEO of Man-Made Josh Kalinowski, I’m bringing you a story about why tying who you are to what you do might actively cause you to experience more failures and less successes. Our conversation unveils how Josh’s professional baseball career abruptly collapsed and left him feeling lost. It was in those dark moments he discovered his faith, and his calling to help other men discover who they were meant to be as well. Join us as we sip WHISTLE PIG SMALL BATCH RYE NEAT and delve into the insights you need to better get to know yourself and what you’re meant to do during your time on this planet.
Wise Words from this episode:
- When life throws you a curve ball, are you leaning on your faith and taking ownership of what it provides you in these pivotal moments? Do you even know what to put your faith in? If not, throw yourself into the discovery process - finding what’s meaningful to you will be life-changing.
- Tying your identity to accomplishment and the pursuit of excellence isn’t helpful, it’s harmful. Not only does it put far too much pressure on yourself, but it also limits your sense of freedom and well-being.
- People (especially high performers) tend to contemplate their purpose in compartmentalized buckets of either great or average. What do those definitions even mean, though, and are you actually experiencing joy by maintaining this overly critical, black-and-white mentality?
- Recognize that we are all at different capacity levels in terms of our performance and stop judging your ability or competence based on what others’ are able to achieve. You’re not them! A challenge that’s beneficial for others can just as easily be a detriment to us, so move your focus onto finding and mastering the right hurdles for you.
- Achieving goals does not truly equate to satisfaction and personal freedom. It’s the state of who you are in the pursuit of excellence, on the path of greatness, that gets you there.
