It's all about being unapologetically yourself, pursuing what makes you come alive, having a big vision of what you want your life to be, and thriving!  This episode is based on the quote 'Most men lead lives of quiet desperation, and die with their song still in them' and is aimed at helping you to not be like most people.   Here are big steps you can move toward to make sure you live fully Surround yourself with people who are authentically themselves - in community Hang out in environments that pressure you into doing the positive actions you're wanting to take, particularly those you're scared of Take inventory of activities that energize you and schedule them Doing  exercises in the Designing Your Life book by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans Doing the exercises in the book Pivot by Jenny Blake   Some reminders from the episode Channel your inner Rudy Ruttiger (pretending you're the main character in a movie) Get out of your shell and dance (metaphorically)  Important questions to ask yourself, like 'wouldn't it be wild if I ______?'
