Reflections on "The Purpose-Grounded Life"

  • Summary

  • This episode is a reflection on the the first podcast is our series, "The Purpose-Grounded Life." In this episode, we want to pick up from that first podcast where I brought up two different kinds of concepts. The first one of those is the difference between technical and adaptive solutions to challenges we might have. And then the second will be this concept of agency. And we want to talk about that and introduce the concept of creative agency. 

    The example we use to talk more about these concepts is a thing that most of us have done--we create a New Year's resolution to get in shape, be more healthy, etc. We jump in it with eagerness at first, but then after a short while that initial enthusiasm fades and we drop it. Why? Well, change is hard, of course. And we also tend to apply a technical approach to the question of getting in shape, but that is an adaptive challenge. That means, it really needs an adaptive solution.
