Fri Jan 16 2026
More Signal, Less Noise: The 100 Year Filter for Better Decisions with Mick White Episode snapshot What if the fastest way to get unstuck isn't another hack, planner, or pep talk, but a cleaner filter for your decisions.
In this episode, Mick White walks us through the core question behind his 100 Year Manifesto and why purpose isn't something you find, it's something you build. We talk clarity in chaos, turning pain into purpose, and how leaders can create cultures where people don't just show up, they show up on purpose.
What we get into The one question that cuts through the noise: what truly matters 100 years from now
Why purpose is a decision filter, not a mood
Mick's origin story and the moment everything fell apart, and what he chose to build anyway
How clarity creates momentum, and why action creates even more clarity
The difference between being busy and being aligned
How purpose scales inside organizations through workshops, keynotes, and team programs
How community changes everything when you're trying to live a bigger life
Key ideas and takeaways Purpose fuels resilience. When life gets loud, purpose helps you keep your footing.
Long term thinking creates short term calm. A 100 year lens makes today's choices cleaner.
Clarity isn't your starting line. Action is. You move first, then the path gets clearer.
Culture isn't posters. It's people aligned around meaning, values, and shared commitments.
Try this after you listen Pick one decision you've been avoiding and ask: what will matter 100 years from now
Write 5 core values you won't negotiate, even when things get hard
Create a simple personal manifesto: values, mission, life goals, words to live by
Find your people. Purpose is hard to maintain alone
Memorable lines "Life is short. Live on purpose."
"Purpose isn't something you find, it's something you build."
"When you align actions with what matters most, decisions get easier."
