In Episode 3 of a Touch of Genius, we start to explore why you matter and why your dreams matter too.

Do you ever wonder why you’re here? Why you’re alive in this specific time of the present and future history?

We often think about this when we’re in the middle of a career change, when we’ve hit rock bottom, experiencing a health crisis, starting a family or a new relationship, or when we’re stressed out and feel small. And there are plenty of things these days that can make us feel small and insignificant, if we let ourselves think that way. But this podcast is not about thinking small, it’s about thinking into a new reality that helps us all grow in healthy ways and make life better, with each one of us contributing to it with our personal ingenuity.

So, what if we asked ourselves why we’re here from a place of pure positive curiosity?

Why ARE we here? And what does us being here actually do for the rest of humanity?

What does what you do with your one precious life here, help the rest of us with?

I’m not asking you to think of grandiose things, though you can if you want to. I’m asking you to think of your daily contributions to the betterment of society, however large your circle of influence is.

Our sense of existence has a lot to do with our dreams…

Dreams are an important factor in our personal evolution as human beings. They’re tied to our imagination and our sense of fulfilment.

We are nothing without dreams, and dreams don’t happen if we don’t feel that we matter. Because dreams need us to make them happen. It’s a symbiotic relationship of creation. That’s why it’s so important to feel that we matter. Without this, why get out of bed in the mornings?

Explore these and other questions in this episode and start to make every day count for you! Tune in, wherever you get your podcasts:
