Bill Gallagher shares his personal purpose statement: to make a positive difference in people's lives by encouraging them to see what they cannot see by serving as their guide. He uses an ATM metaphor to explain how business should work as a vehicle to help people even when you're not present.
They are able to do the things and help the people who really want to be helped and who need to be helped as well. So just thinking outside the box, but the key was you've got to utilize and leverage your business to act. I think this is a crude but effective metaphor. Like an atm, it has to be. There has to be money in there whether you're in there or not. So what are you going to do to do that? And like I came up with my own personal purpose statement was to make a positive difference in people's lives by encouraging them to see what they cannot see by serving as their guide. And so that's what I try and do. Doesn't have to be in finance, it doesn't have to be in medicine, it doesn't have to be in any specific industry. But if I can enlighten and show someone a better way and the light bulb goes out, love it. That's. That's kind of what I'm put on this earth to do.
