As a coach and mentor, I've had the privilege of working with many individuals who are striving to achieve their goals. But what if their goals aren't truly aligned with their values and desires? That's where the 7 Whys method comes in - a powerful tool for getting to the root of what drives us. By asking "why" seven times, we can move from superficial goals to a deeper understanding of what truly motivates us.
In this episode, I share my own experience with the 7 Whys and how it helped me understand my own motivations. I also invite you to try it out for yourself by setting aside one of your big goals and asking "why" repeatedly until you reach an emotional reaction. It's a simple yet powerful exercise that can help you clarify what truly drives you - and what might be holding you back.
Takeaways:
- The 7 Whys method is a powerful tool for getting to the root of what drives us
- By asking "why" seven times, we can move from superficial goals to a deeper understanding of our motivations
- It's not about achieving external markers of success (e.g. a million dollars), but about aligning with our true values and desires
- The 7 Whys can help you uncover emotional reactions that reveal what truly motivates us
- Use the worksheet I provide in the description to try out the 7 Whys method for yourself
