In this episode we revisit Todd's powerful talk delivered at Schermerhorn Symphony Hall in Nashville, TN for the Story Conference. Todd discusses the importance of shunning comfort zones, overcoming fear, and identifying your productive passion to ensure we empty ourselves of our best work by the end of our lives.

He also delves into practical questions to help you discover your own productive passion and emphasizes the importance of fighting the right creative battles. With engaging anecdotes and suggestions, this episode is a call to action: define your principles, take bold steps, and strive to put your best work into the world, ensuring you live and ultimately, die empty.

Key Learnings:

  1. Embrace Innovation Despite Resistance:New and dangerous ideas often face strong opposition, but persevering is key to bringing transformative work into the world.
  2. Avoid the Comfort Trap:External validation can lead to complacency. Strive to continuously challenge yourself and push beyond your comfort zone.
  3. Overcome Fear:Fear often disguises itself as wisdom, preventing action. Recognize and confront your fears to unlock new opportunities.
  4. Identify Your Productive Passion:Discover what you're willing to suffer for—this dedicated pursuit helps navigate the forces of comfort and fear.
  5. Live Purposefully to Die Empty:Ensure you don't take your best work to the grave. Live each day with intention, contributing your unique gifts to the world.
