Young and Profiting with Hala Taha
Business:Entrepreneurship
Until his early thirties, Kevin Miller was an elite professional cyclist who ran several businesses on the side. But eventually his highly-driven lifestyle reached its limit, and Kevin was left wondering whether his drive for achievement had actually created the type of success he really yearned for or given him what he truly wanted most: peace. In this episode, Kevin will debunk today’s myths about “driven people.” He will teach us how to find clarity and conviction in what we authentically value, and he will break down the “five gears of drive” and how to unlock them in every area of our lives.
Kevin Miller is a former pro athlete, personal development guide, and host of the top-ranking podcast Self-Helpful, which has over 60 million downloads and is visited by today’s most influential changemakers. He is also the author of the newly released book, What Drives You.
In this episode, Hala and Kevin will discuss:
- Kevin’s athletic journey
- His path to entrepreneurship
- The genesis of his new book What Drives You
- His definition of drive
- Why there’s no such thing as a lazy person
- Why some driven people are like addicts
- Why your drive is just a thought away
- The five gears of drive and how to unlock them
- How emotion can drive us and not logic
- Where to find our purpose zones
- And other topics…
