This week, Wixii™ Reads focus on being authentic and deliberate in our individual intent.

Next, in A Call for a Movement to Redefine the Successful Life, journalist Alina Tugend questions what society actually means by success: “If we don’t redefine success, the personal price we pay will get higher and higher…Right now, America’s workplace culture is practically fueled by stress, sleep deprivation and burnout,…The answer? To create a movement that embraces the idea that physical and spiritual wellness — from meditation to exercise to good nutrition — are integral to, not separate from, a successful life.”
Lastly, Daniel Pink in his book, Drive, explores what drives humans for their best lives: “Science shows that the secret to high performance isn’t our biological drive or our reward and punishment drive, but our third drive – our deep-seated desire to direct our own lives, to extend and expand our abilities, and to live a life of purpose.”
