In this Episode, I chat with Jordan Gross about how to integrate a cloud nine moment into your day.

Jordan is a Northwestern and Kellogg School of Management graduate, a writer, a leadership coach, a speaker, and a self-proclaimed multipotentialite, having experienced positions in large banks like Merrill Lynch to small startup companies like Chowbus.

He's also a best-selling author of a book called Getting COMFY: Your Morning Guide to Daily Happiness, a TEDx Speaker, and founder of multiple companies and organizations.

We discussed ways to create a morning routing that kicks happiness into high gear through calming, openness, movement, funny, and YOU. We discuss taking control of your life and how to understand if something is just passion or your true life purpose. This episode was an incredible window inside the mind of an individual who's life's purpose it is to cultivate happiness within himself and everyone who he comes across.

We also discuss external motivations vs internal motivations. External motivations are ones that are shaped by forces around you, and internal motivations are ones that are cultivated through you chasing your purpose. Jordan and I talk about how to structure your life around internal motivations in order to facilitate greater happiness and life satisfaction. Internal motivations relate to the things you can actually control, and how you can use your unique skills to improve your happiness and life prospects.
