378 | What Do You Want Out of Life (Part 1)

The Greatness Machine

What if the key to clarity was just five minutes of stillness?

In this solo episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh reflects on purpose, priorities, and the practices that help him gain direction during life transitions. Inspired by a workshop with his friend and spiritual teacher Dandapani, Darius shares a simple but powerful exercise: taking just five minutes each day to sit in silence and ask, “What do I want out of life?”

He opens up about his own process, exploring the feelings he wants to cultivate, the kind of family and professional life he’s building, and why recognition, influence, and freedom play important roles in shaping his next big chapter.
