In this episode, Susie Ma, founder of Tropic Skincare, shares her inspiring journey of defining an "infinite purpose" for her business, inspired by author Simon Sinek. This concept has had a profound impact on Susie and the High-Performance Podcast hosts, Jake Humphrey and Damian Hughes.
**Key Takeaways:**
* **Infinite Purpose:** Susie defines infinite purpose as something that is unachievable because it continues indefinitely, guiding all decisions and passions.
* **Wooden Block Reminder:** Susie received a wooden block with the words "infinite purpose" engraved on it from Global Radio, symbolizing the impact of this concept on her life and work.
* **Viktor Frankl's Holocaust Experience:** Jake draws parallels between Susie's infinite purpose and Viktor Frankl's experiences during the Holocaust. Frankl believed that understanding the meaning of life, even in the face of adversity, could help individuals find purpose and resilience.
* **Increased Focus and Enthusiasm:** An infinite purpose provides a clear focus and renewed enthusiasm to keep going, even during challenging times.
* **Waka Papa: Part of the Larger Story:** Susie shares the Maori concept of "Waka Papa," which emphasizes that we are part of a larger story, connected to our ancestors and future generations. This idea aligns with the concept of infinite purpose, as it extends beyond individual achievements to impact future generations.
* **Learning from Mistakes:** Jake emphasizes the value of learning from the mistakes and successes of others, rather than trying to reinvent the wheel.
* **High-Performance Podcast Community:** Jake and Damian express gratitude to the High-Performance Podcast team, including Will, Hannah, Finn Ryan from Rethink Audio, and Professor Damien Hughes.
* **High-Performance Circle:** Listeners are encouraged to join the High-Performance Circle, a members club that offers exclusive content and networking opportunities.
