Show notes

Right now, people are experiencing emotions that are not the norm for them in their day-to-day routine. When those things happen, it’s a great time to go inward and do some self-work. We have the time to do it, so let’s take advantage of it. Whether you are solo or with your spouse, try taking the StrengthsFinder test to give you an idea of your strengths as well as your blindspots.

Show notes

We’re all dealing with a lot of change right now, and one of the changes that’s going to be a challenge is maintaining your marriage when you and your spouse are home together all day. A lot of people aren’t used to co-working together and it’s going to take some communication to get on the same page.

Show notes

There are a lot of people out there right now in a period of transition: with jobs suspended or lost, businesses closed that may not reopen, there is a lot of uncertainty out there. We need to stop ourselves from spinning out of control and realize that, if we’re going to have to change directions, it might as well be the direction of our choosing.

We’re going to talk about the topic of polyamory. There are so many people talking about it, you see it on TV, but how many of us actually know what it is? I went to the man who’s willing to be public about it and get some answers. But John Romaniello is also a lot more than that — he’s a fitness legend, a business coach, and an excellent storyteller. We take a deep dive into a lot of different areas, and I know there’s so much you are going to get from this conversation.

239: Fri-Date | How To Create Clarity On Your Ideas Mar 13, 2020

Show notes

Today’s Topic: Gaining clarity

We’re talking about creating clarity on whatever you are working toward. People always believe they have these amazing ideas and they’re going to put them into action immediately, but that’s unfortunately not how it plays it. You get passionate and excited about your ideas, but you don’t realize all the details of what needs to be done to execute on that idea. Our ideas get ahead of the actual business model. Before you dive head-first into your vision, it’s time to nail down the details and think through the specifics.

In This Conversation We Cover:

[03:55] Dialing in on your ideas
[06:02] Not realizing everything that goes into your idea
[08:51] Getting into the minutia
[09:57] Reverse-engineering the process of building a business idea
[11:49] What you want to have/be/do
[15:03] Putting your dream life into context
[20:01] Moving towards your five-year goal
[22:05] The formula that works for Rob
[27:13] The five lunch pitch
[29:02] Praise vs feedback
