When a Broken Wrist Becomes Your Greatest Gift

At 23, sleeping on your sister's couch with $4 in your bank account, would you believe someone who told you that within a decade you'd build a multimillion-dollar business and interview the world's most successful people? Probably not. Yet this exact transformation happened-not through some magical overnight success, but through a fundamental shift in how greatness itself is understood. The journey begins with a sobering truth: what stands between most of us and the life we want isn't talent, opportunity, or even luck. It's the absence of something deeper-a Meaningful Mission that gives our days genuine significance beyond mere achievement. Consider why 40 million American adults battle anxiety annually, or why happiness metrics have declined steadily over two decades. We're chasing success while starving for meaning. Building a seven-figure business sounds impressive until you realize the hollowness that can accompany it-the strained partnerships, the Sunday night dread, the nagging question: "Is this really it?" True greatness emerges only when we stop performing for others' approval and start serving from authentic purpose. This requires balancing what's called the Three Players: Business, Relationships, and Wellness. Neglect any one, and your entire foundation weakens-you might dominate professionally while your marriage crumbles, or achieve perfect health while your purpose withers. Your sweet spot exists precisely where three forces converge: what lights you up (Passion), what comes naturally (Power), and what problem you're compelled to solve (Problem). Think of salsa dancing-you might love it passionately, but does it call to you strongly enough to build your life around it? Probably not. Natural strengths matter too, but without addressing a meaningful problem, they remain dormant potential. As a former CIA director put it, greatness means "accomplishing something beneficial to more than yourself." Finding this intersection takes time. Some writers spend years discovering their voice before producing breakthrough work. But practical exercises accelerate the journey. Try designing your Perfect Day Itinerary-not some fantasy involving private jets, but an honest hour-by-hour schedule reflecting your ideal rhythm. What time do you wake? How do you move your body? When do you create your best work? Who surrounds you? Then identify small, achievable adjustments moving you toward that reality. Here's a more uncomfortable exercise: write your own obituary. How long do you want to live? What mission did you accomplish? What legacy remains? What do loved ones say at your funeral? This isn't morbid-it's clarifying. When you know the story you want told, today's decisions become remarkably simpler.
