However, there is one important ingredient that you can't afford to ignore: your purpose. Too often, people chase their dreams without first stopping to consider what they're really passionate about. As a result, they end up in jobs that don't fulfill them and eventually become unhappy or even disengaged with their work.\n\nAccording to a recent study, 52% of employees are unhappy at work and 71% are disengaged. What's more, 50% or more of workers are actively looking for new jobs while they're still employed. Dr. Joe Johnson is a perfect example of someone who followed his purpose and made a significant impact as a result. Despite graduating from high school with a 1.6 GPA and undergrad with a 2.4 GPA, he went on to become a successful national speaker, trainer, peak performance coach, and entrepreneur leader.\n\nIn this episode, Dr. Joe shares his thoughts about taking time to learn who you are and finding your authentic voice, understanding the game you're playing in, learning from experiences to overcome obstacles, unleashing our purpose, being selfish with healing, and becoming aware of your thoughts, feelings, and actions so you can learn how to control them. This focus on personal growth has helped Dr. Joe create minor shifts that have had a major impact in his life and career. And as a result, he's been able to help countless other people do the same.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/a44ac431-49b0-4a53-9995-3b23de7b8e98/AvuNFga5Wye_rcnlczRYyoRI.jpg"}
