More From My Conversation With Marshall Goldsmith

Marshall Goldsmith’s journey in life took an impressive turn when he met Dr. Paul Hersey, a renowned teacher who had co-invented situational leadership. Inspired by Dr. Hersey, Marshall became more ambitious, leading him to work with luminaries like Francis Hesselbine, Peter Drucker, and Warren Bennett. These great teachers instilled in him the belief that he could be more, a message that transformed his life. Embracing this newfound sense of purpose, Marshall embarked on a mission to make the biggest positive difference he could, developing the Marshall Bot project to share his knowledge for free and creating the 100 Coaches program to pass on his wisdom to others.

“The Earned Life”

The Earned Life by Marshall Goldsmith for the passion struck recommended book list

The Earned Life is a concept that emphasizes the importance of finding purpose and avoiding regrets in life. It’s about living a life that is meaningful and intentional, where individuals pursue their aspirations, take meaningful actions, and find satisfaction in their day-to-day journey. Living an Earned Life requires a focus on self-reflection, growth, and continuous improvement both on a personal and professional level.

In the podcast, Marshall Goldsmith talks about the importance of seeking meaning and purpose in our lives to achieve long-term happiness. He stresses the importance of being honest with oneself and being present in the moment to experience the emotions and connections that add meaning to our lives. Goldsmith also advises against becoming addicted to results or tying self-worth to outcomes, as it can result in emotional distress and lack of enjoyment in life’s journey.

Calculating Risks and Opportunities
Life presents numerous risks and opportunities; however, it’s essential to weigh the potential consequences of our actions to strike a balance between pursuing exciting prospects and maintaining a sense of security. Carefully calculating risks and opportunities allows us to experience growth while avoiding unnecessary negative consequences that can set us back or deter us from achieving our true potential.

Marshall Goldsmith shares his personal story of a surfing accident that happened when he was 27 years old. In his reflection, he acknowledges that the mishap occurred because he pursued short-term gratification without considering the long-term consequences. Goldsmith highlights the importance of learning from these experiences and utilizing calculated risk-taking when faced with various opportunities in life.
