Episode 2- Discovering Your Why: Unveiling the Deeper Drive Behind Life and Legacy

ASTON INCORPORATED

Why do we climb out of bed every morning and face the day ahead? This burning question is at the heart of our latest heart-to-heart on the podcast, as Dallin and I, Wayne Aston, delve into the motivations that steer our ship through life's tumultuous seas. Embark on a journey of reflection and self-discovery with us, as we recount the pivotal moments and sage advice that shaped our quest for success. We reminisce about early career crossroads, where the wisdom of grandfathers and fathers clashed, guiding us to learn trades or chase academic accolades. Experience our realizations that the pursuit of personal gain rings hollow without the creation of outward value and join us as we dissect the integral role that relationships and integrity played in the development of Sage Creek at Moab Resort.
What lies beneath the surface of our desire for financial comfort and stability? In this conversation, we explore the emotional undercurrents that reveal our true selves when we peel back the layers of our primary motivations. I open up about the profound insights gained from confronting the comfort of financial security against the priceless value of family time. We highlight the importance of understanding these core desires as catalysts for all future ventures, strategies, and the emotional depth they bring to our lives.
Our dialogue culminates in a powerful testament to the transformation that occurs when one aligns with a divine calling. I reflect on the seismic shift from a physically demanding enterprise to the pursuit of the financial markets, a change ignited by the recognition of a higher purpose. A life-changing lunch meeting opened my eyes to the atrocities of child sex trafficking, reshaping my mission in life to serve a cause greater than any individual ambition. This episode isn't just about business acumen; it's a clarion call to find your 'why', to rise above material aspirations, and to strive for a legacy that echoes through humanity.
