Back in December I was interview by John Jantsch of Duct Tape Marketing for his Small Business Marketing Podcast. You can listen to the 25-minute interview below.
Description of the Interview from John Jantsch’s Duct Tape Marketing Blog:
My guest for this week’s episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast is Jon Gordon, author of The Seed: Finding Purpose and Happiness in Life and Work
In The Seed we meet Josh, an up and comer in his company, who has lost his passion at work. Challenged by his boss to take two weeks and decide if he really wants to work there, Josh takes off for the country, where he meets a wise farmer who gives him a seed and a promise: find the right place to plant the seed, and his purpose will be revealed.
Gordon effectively uses the fable format to help us find our own sources of wisdom and insight.
I think many business owners, and really anyone toiling away in a job anywhere, crave this idea of purpose and meaning, but far too few stop to reflect on the things that make them truly happy and fulfilled.
If you let it, your work can suck the life right out of you. Connecting with some higher purpose that drives and sustains through the good patches and the rough patches is the most powerful tool you can employ.
