T. Harv Eker tried 14 jobs and 12 businesses in 10 years chasing money and external success, finding little fulfillment. He realized the purpose he was searching for wasn't something to figure out but something already inside him waiting to come out.

Does being in a job that you don't like or just earning a living result in a fantastic life? If you hate getting up in the morning and going to work, and you mostly live for your weekends, does that allow you to be fully happy? To me, this is robbing you of the most precious thing you've got. Your life. Why? Because most of us spend the majority of our time working more than anything else that we do. Yes or yes. And if you don't really love what you do, then guess what? Then you can't really love your life. I hope you can relate to that. Yes. So I sure can do that myself. I mean, I can relate to all of this. Because you know what? This was one of the biggest challenges I ever had in my whole life. Early in my career, I actually had 14 different jobs and 12 different businesses in just 10 years. Searching, searching for the right work. I was looking for the hottest new businesses and upcoming trends, and I was trying anything where I thought I could make money quickly. And even though I was sure I was positive this was the route to happiness and success, I ended up with what? Little money, little meaning, and very little or no fulfillment at all. And it wasn't until I stopped looking at outside opportunities and started looking inside that my life changed. And for the first time, I started to get really clear. And what I found out was that what I was searching for was not outside of me at all. It was inside of me. And that I didn't need to figure it out. I actually had to let it out.
