(#159) Why did You Really Become a Therapist?

Wealth does not have to be in monetary form, nor a status living in top-notch homes and owning lucrative businesses. It can also be time, knowledge or wisdom that enables you to make a lasting impact in the world, most especially in your ideal clients. 

Sometimes we get so caught up in the rat race; focusing on how we can pay off our home, car, or student loans that we tend to disregard what impact we are actually making that's gonna create a ripple effect years from now. We’re unable to recognize our own gifts and use them to contribute to the world.

Therapists deserve the best of both worlds. Hence, I wanna welcome you to the first special episode of the Abundance Series where we highlight mindset, purpose, clarity and vision for lifestyle and business. We’ll start off by tapping into your history, purpose, and the legacy that you want to leave in this world.

Standout Quotes from Doctor TK:

• "As a human being, what has your journey throughout your life taught you? Because I believe that throughout that journey, you should be working on defining your purpose. And so, I look at the purpose as what your big impact is that you want... To not only make in the world while you're here, but also to leave what you want to the world when you're gone." (06:36) 
• "Think about your purpose bigger than you. Because sometimes we get so focused and narrow-minded about what we need to check out of our lists; what we need to pay for today; what we need to pay off in 20...30 years, a home, a car or a student loan. But what type of impact are you actually making right now that's gonna create a ripple effect, a domino effect, years from now?" (08:19)
• "I look at my intentions as, what are my big goals? What are my goals for my business and my personal life in the next 12 months to 5 years? And how can I be the 1% better Doctor TK everyday, working toward the things on that vision board?" (13:01)
