Ideas: Bob Goff — Love Does & Everybody, Always

Welcome to Season 2 of the podcast, Ideas! My first guest is Bob Goff, who I consider to be one of the most generous people I’ve ever met. I wanted to have him on the show, not only because I want you to get to know him better, but because he is one of my favorite storytellers. We had some good laughs and he had some wisdom to share because he has lived life to the full, and now has some awesome stories. I hope you enjoy our conversation and walk away encouraged from Bob’s outlook on life. You can listen by clicking on the player below:

Solve Problems and Document Your Journey to Help Others

The best way to grow your audience is to solve problems that people face. An example of this is that any time I think of writing a blog post, I try to first identify a problem that people have, so I can then offer value through my articles. Of course, I can only help people with what I have experienced myself because the advice of fake it until you make it is bogus. This being said, there are two options to begin creating: either document the journey along the way or live life to the full and then document it.

I am about to release brand new episodes of my podcast, “Ideas“, and have noticed this trend about the people that I interview. They are both living life to the full and documenting their current and previous experiences. Very rarely are they telling me what they want to do or what they will do in the future. Instead, they just go do it. And it is in these experiences where others find encouragement and motivation to pursue their own ideas.

Maybe you have been consuming information instead of creating and now feel the need to begin expressing yourself. If this is you, I would urge you to begin.

The world needs your work.

The world needs your journey.

The world needs your problem-solving.
