So what it forces me to do is I, you know, I set aside minutes a day and I'm looking for things that make me laugh, that tickle my funny bone, and then I'm sharing them out there, and I do three a day, because in humor there's the principles of three.
What if the secret to happiness isn't in what we do, but how we listen? Drew Myers shares his incredible journey of self-discovery on this episode of the 'I Am Driven Podcast'. Growing up with a relentless drive, Drew found himself bouncing through 11 jobs in as many years, searching for that elusive feeling of fulfillment.
His father's advice, 'if you're not happy, do something else', echoed in his mind, but it took more than a decade for Drew to understand what happiness truly meant for him. Drew's path took an unexpected turn when he stumbled into radio hosting. It wasn't just a job; it was a calling.
But it wasn't until he embraced the concept of obedience—not in the sense of following orders blindly, but in listening to the quiet whispers that guide us—that he began to find real purpose. This episode dives deep into how Drew learned to heed those whispers and take intentional actions toward a more meaningful life. Humor also played a crucial role in Drew's journey.
He believes that finding joy is a deliberate choice, and he makes it a point to seek out laughter daily. By sharing these moments of joy with others, Drew has found a unique way to spread happiness and build a community around positivity. However, Drew's road wasn't always smooth. He faced significant challenges, including struggles with addiction and mental health issues. In one particularly dark moment, he found himself contemplating a drastic decision, urged by those same whispers.
But through faith and perseverance, Drew managed to turn his life around. Drew also discusses his book, 'The Tacos and Chocolate Diet', which chronicles his journey and the lessons he's learned along the way. Additionally, he talks about his new venture, Onward Adventures, which offers coaching and retreats aimed at helping others find their own paths to happiness. If you're feeling lost or struggling to find your purpose, Drew's story offers a beacon of hope.
His blend of obedience, humor, and faith might just be the inspiration you need to start listening to your own whispers and taking steps toward a more joyful life.
