The Pursuit of Awesome with Charlie Harary

Find what lights you up

The way in which we grow isn’t moment to moment, it’s when we find what lights us up. When we’re deep into our work and become exhausted, it’s important to find a passion and create something that is bigger than ourselves.

How to pause in stressful moments

Charlie discusses the shocking Oscar moment between Will Smith and Chris Rock and the importance of seeing our thoughts before our thoughts control us. 

“When you start to spend too much time [going] into yourself, you don’t appreciate what’s in  the mind of another.” - Charlie Harary

Healthy habits make happiness

In this episode, Charlie continues our discussion of unconscious bias. When we indulge in something only because it feels good at the moment, we may not realize the negative effects it may have later. When we slow down and ask ourselves “why,” we can unlock negative behavior and make better, healthier decisions going forward. Undoing unconscious bias is hard and takes practice, but it’s worth the fight!

What are my triggers?

When we experience conflict, it’s important to take a step back from the situation and check ourselves. Recognizing our triggers helps us feel empowered to interact positively with people instead of giving into conflict.

Embracing Responsibility

We are responsible for creating positivity in our relationships. When we make a commitment, become parents, or take the wheel of a car, for example, we must remember our spiritual duty to lift each other up and stay diligent.

Recognizing our unconscious bias

Sometimes it’s hard to be told that our actions don’t live up to how highly we think of ourselves. With every person that comes into our lives, let’s check ourselves, treat everyone with kindness, and acknowledge that we have barriers to overcome together. We have to remember that we’re responsible for each other.

From selfishness to selflessness

When we’re babies, we have a lot of physical needs. When we’re adults, we have spiritual needs – and we have to give kindness to others in order to feel fulfilled. Watch this episode to learn how to appreciate people for who they are, not who we want them to be.

The best gifts in life are free

A great way to find ourselves is to build someone else up. When you look at your family, friends and colleagues think to yourself, “How do I love this person for who they are – not who I want them to be?” Loving someone for their whole self is one of the greatest gifts we can give. 

 

“When you are able to understand and believe in somebody else, you're actually building them up.” - Charlie Harary

You get what you give

In this episode, Charlie discusses the science of the soul — aka spirituality. We constantly seek spiritual connections and will go through lengths to get them. But what if we dedicated short amounts of time every day to make that connection and give that kindness instead? When you enter a building today, hold the door open and see how you feel when someone walks through. You don’t lose when you give yourself to someone else.

Relationships are our greatest assets

Have you ever been on a walkway in an airport? Charlie Harary says there are three types of people – one who goes on the walkway and walks, one who goes on the walkway and stands or one who doesn’t use the walkway at all. 

 

We are all so different, and we need to put ourselves out there and learn what makes each other tick. Relationships are our opportunities to go beyond oneself and learn about others. Will you learn more about the special people in your life today?
