When we don't love the journey, when we put off our happiness to some future date, we live in stress.
Todd Perelmuter takes on a captivating topic in this episode of 'Path to Peace': the age-old debate of success versus happiness. With his rich background of living with shamans, monks, and spiritual leaders across 35 countries, Todd shares profound reflections on why we often delay our happiness for the elusive promise of future success. He argues that society celebrates success as an addiction, making it all too easy to postpone joy until we achieve our goals.
But what happens when we keep moving the goalposts? Can we ever truly be happy if we’re always chasing the next big thing? Drawing from his extensive experiences and meditative practices, Todd highlights the importance of finding joy in the present moment. He uses compelling anecdotes, like Michael Jordan’s love for practice over the championship game, to illustrate how true success comes from appreciating the journey, not just the destination.
Todd explains that without gratitude and present-moment awareness, even the wealthiest and most successful individuals can feel spiritually bankrupt. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with the pressures of achieving societal success while seeking genuine happiness. Todd’s insights encourage us to cultivate a mindset where happiness and success coexist, making every step of our journey meaningful and fulfilling.
