Rick Walker: Realigning for a More Meaningful Life
Description
Is your quiet time each day serving you?
In this episode, Jeff and Rick discuss:
- Principles of business that were learned early in Rick’s life.
- Staying on track with your family and spirituality amid life’s activities.
- Living a life of meaning.
- Finding a cause that guides your actions.
Key Takeaways:
- Many young men, between 25 and 45, are significantly underperforming in key areas of life.
- Be willing to act immediately when prompted in your life. Take initiative, and you’ll be amazed at who you can meet and who you can become.
- The only way to get mastery is from a master. Seek out masters in your life you can learn from.
- Your competency plus your integrity becomes your identity.
- You have to give it away in order to keep it with all things in your life.
- Stewardship requires action. Building a life of meaning requires sacrifice.
"We get it all wrong. We worship our work, then we work on our play, then we play at our worship, and I think that we've got to get those things realigned." — Rick Walker
