“An important starting point in philosophy is this: a clear understanding of your own guiding principle.” - Epictetus

Both philosophy and progress begin with understanding your own guiding principle. Self-awareness is your internal GPS, steering your decisions and actions toward meaningful goals.

Ask yourself: What drives you? Financial freedom? Professional growth? Making an impact?

Knowing your "why" not only fuels your motivation but also helps you adapt in challenging situations and build deeper connections with others.

Simon Sinek's Start with Why offers a great roadmap for uncovering your deeper purpose.

When you know what drives you, you’ll be better equipped to handle objections, focus on what matters, and excel in both life and work.

Actionable tips:

Identify your internal drivers to better understand what motivates you. Is it money, recognition, helping others? Knowing this will help you stay grounded during tough times.
Reflect after each sales interaction and consider why you responded in certain ways. Did you follow your principles, or did emotions drive you?

Remember you will die.
