This is one of those very inspiring client stories that I have the blessing to be a part of.

Ever since I started working with “B” a year ago, he’s been crusty at times.  Occasionally his brusk style is off putting to say the least, but the the transformation that he is going through needs to be shared.

Recently “B” went to a workshop where he heard Brendon Burchard, who wrote the book “Life’s Golden Ticket.”  Brendon is an amazing speaker and a fabulous human being to boot.  Well something clicked for my crusty client.  Perhaps the time being away from the office gave him permission to reflect on his life.

You see, in his talk Brendon asks three powerful questions that he formulated as he had a near fatal car accident years ago.  The questions became the centerpiece of his life’s work:

1.  Have I lived?

2.  Have I loved?

3.  Have I served?

What I didn’t know is that while “B” was quite successful in the business world, his marriage didn’t offer him any happiness.  But being the good family man that he was, he just assumed that he’d hang in.  Little did he know that the trip to hear Brendon would have such an effect on his life.

He shared that when he got home, he could no longer maintain the veil of denial that had kept him stuck.  He was faced with those three questions and so decided to take the leap.  He asked his wife for a divorce and is moving through that with grace.

Now how does this relate to his business?  While I can’t prove it, I would suspect that having to deny an aspect of your life would cause all the other aspects to suffer as well.  Seeing the courage and commitment to Living, Loving, and Serving that “B” has made is inspiring.  I feel him being a different person, and I’m sure the clients he serves will also notice that positive changes.  And it’s also funny that his trip to see Brendon was under the auspices of business.  Do you see that so often it’s the business challenges and opportunities that are the catalysts for massive personal growth for us?  That’s why I always say that the entrepreneurial journey is a spiritual path.

So I will ask you – what is in the way of you living, loving, and serving in a big way?  You can’t take your life out of your business, so in keeping with yesterdays post, what’s next for you?  When you let go of all the ’stuff’ that is no longer serving you, what do you do then?

This is some deep stuff.  The stuff legacies are made of.  What will yours be?  Feel free to leave yours in the comment section of the blog.

Blessings my dear readers.
