EP 131 - Jeff Brekken, Why Are We Not Asking Why?
Why are we not asking why more often? Are we afraid of the answers? Many times understanding our internal motives as well as the motives of others will help us find our way through the struggle we’re currently enduring. Oftentimes we know that but are afraid to go there. But what if we weren’t?
 
What You Will Learn 
How thinking about your motivations can help get down to your purpose and the reason that you and everything else matter
Why do we tend to ask why a lot less as we get older and more experienced
How asking yourself why you do things can help you get through sticky situations
How asking why in your relationships can help you understand your partner’s motives and what they are looking for from you
How studying your own motives can help you be more vulnerable and why that is a good thing
Asking why helps get you through the hard times and find a way out
How asking why will help you find what is truly in your heart.
 
Favorite Quote: 
“You can’t achieve absolute 100% of your dreams when you are not vulnerable and when you are not asking yourself why.”
-Jeff Brekken  
 
How To Get Involved:  
Addicted to Winning connects listeners through stories that prove why mindset matters. Jeff Brekken was working a 60-hour week on his family’s farm by the time he was 10. When he wasn’t helping with the harvest, he was at the hockey rink. Jeff’s early life experiences taught him he needs to be either all-in or all-out.

In 2000 he started a single-family home construction business and by 2008 he was looking for the next big thing. Jeff founded the Blue Sky Benefit Solutions & Rise Above HR/ Recruiting on top of a lifelong passion for helping people. Through this show, Jeff will take that passion one step further.
