In Chapter 5 of Not Enoughness: The Gift and The Curse, Jarek Tadla takes us on a heartfelt journey about what it truly means to make good decisions. Through a personal story of meeting his football heroes—the Denver Broncos—Jarek reveals the importance of making choices that come from a place of integrity, humility, and self-awareness.
A Lesson in Disappointment and Growth
Jarek recounts a pivotal night in Denver when he witnessed his favorite players indulge in reckless behavior the evening before an important game. Their actions resulted in a dismal performance, which not only affected their reputation but also disappointed their fans. This experience became a profound reminder for Jarek: decisions made out of ego can have far-reaching consequences.
Beyond the Ego
Jarek’s story doesn’t stop at disappointment. He reflects on how his own life has mirrored the lessons from that night—times when his decisions, driven by pride or the desire to prove himself, led to missed opportunities and broken relationships. His honesty about his struggles with ego serves as a powerful reminder to all of us: True success is rooted in decisions that align with our deeper values and our purpose.
The Power of Self-Reflection
Jarek emphasizes that whether you're an athlete, entrepreneur, or parent, the key to making impactful decisions lies in reflecting on who you are beyond your achievements. It’s about grounding yourself in your purpose and listening to that inner voice that guides you toward what truly matters.
