038 - The Domino Effect Feb 20, 2017

Show notes

You've probably heard about the domino effect. You can start with a small domino, smaller than a Tic Tac and that tiny little domino can trigger a reaction that takes down a domino the size of the empire state building after just 29 dominos of increasing size.

I tell you this to remind you that very small actions have far reaching effects. Do not dismiss any change as too small to make an impact.

Create your own domino effect.

037 - 10 Second Choices Feb 17, 2017

Show notes

Have you ever eaten something you regret and used that choice to justify overeating for the rest of the day, figuring you'll start fresh tomorrow? Or maybe you didn't have a productive morning so you loaf around on the couch all day while telling yourself that you'll get serious tomorrow? Or maybe you have a short exchange with someone, your feelings are hurt and you carry it with you all day – in a bad mood and feeling down.

"Imagine this: If you had $86,400 in your bank account and someone stole $10 from you, would you be upset and throw the remaining $86,390 away to spite them or because you might as well lose it all and start fresh tomorrow? Of course not. See, we have 86,400 seconds in each day. Don't let someone's negative 10 seconds ruin the remaining 86,390 seconds of your precious day."

No matter how the day started, there is power & potential in the remainder of the day. Don't give it away or throw it away.

035 - Creating Lasting Motivation Feb 15, 2017

Show notes

If you light a match, do you have a fire?

You do for a second, but it won't last unless you do more. It won't less unless you tend to it and actively participate in making it grow.

The same is true of motivation. The spark will not last unless you act upon it.

Show notes

"Action now is a bargain compared to what it's going to cost everyone later."

The longer you wait, the more it will cost you – in every way.

031 - Becoming Warren Buffett Feb 09, 2017

Show notes

The other day I watched the new HBO documentary Becoming Warren Buffett.

In the documentary he posed a hypothetical scenario to a group of young students:

Imagine I'm going to buy each of you a car. Any car you want. But there's a catch: it's the only car you will ever own.

You'd make the decision carefully, right? And then you'd take impeccable care of that car.

He didn't buy the students cars but he did remind them that the scenario is true of their bodies and their minds.

It's the only one you'll ever have.

Do your choices reflect impeccable care?

030 - What Drives Results? Feb 08, 2017

Show notes

What drives results? Focus on what drives results. What results are you after? What things drive those results? Focus there every day. If you know where you're going, stay in that lane. You'll get there so much faster if you continue to ask, "what drives results" instead of turning your head at every distraction or comparison.

029 - Are You Complicit? Feb 07, 2017

Show notes

How are you complicit in creating the conditions you say you don't want? What is it about your life that you aren't satisfied with? In what areas do you want more? What choices are you making that create what you say you don't want?
