You’ve probably heard of the fixed vs. growth mindset. But did you know it applies to whole organizations, not just individual people? And, just like with individuals, there are certain things you can do to change, improve, and support an organization’s mindset. Today, Dr. Mary C. Murphy, a protege of Carol Dweck and an esteemed psychology researcher in her own right, takes us through her newest book, “Cultures of Growth.”Business organizations are full of mindset triggers– situations that shift individuals’ mindset to be more fixed-oriented than growth-oriented. Evaluations, high effort assignments, and feedback can easily create fixed mindset thoughts of “I’m terrible” or “I’m great” instead of “What can I continue to get better.” Dr. Murphy discusses how leaders, and even non-leaders, can purposefully frame these situations to prevent a slide into a fixed-mindset and create an overall culture that supports growth mindsets.This episode is jam-packed with neuroscience research, actionable tips, and “aha” moments. Dr. Murphy really puts on a masterclass for us. We hope you get as much out of it as we did.Check out Dr. Mary C. Murphy’s book, "Cultures of Growth," today. In a world where success seems reserved for a chosen few, Cultures of Growth unveils a radically different approach to creating organizations that inspire learning, growth, and success at all levels.***Looking to start your next big thing?One of the first steps to take when building your brand or business is creating a website.

Goals are important when it comes to building wealth. And as we always say it’s crucial to form a relationship with your goals, it’s equally important that you form a relationship with your finances.Financial intimacy is a combination of emotional and intellectual intimacy, which allows people to separate facts from feelings when it comes to money and create a safe space for them to reframe and heal the challenges that impact their behavior. Financial intelligence is also important in understanding what actions to take and what order in which to do so.Hannah Koenig is a wealth business and leadership mentor for entrepreneurs, CEO, transformational facilitator, and speaker on the Forbes Coaches Council. Her mission is to close the wealth gap and help everyday leaders to be well-resourced. In 2017, she made the decision to learn everything there is to know about finances and wealth building. This was a difficult but empowering shift, allowing her to purchase a home and build a multiple six-figure business. Hannah encourages people to take away from this conversation the idea that they have immense financial power and that they can choose what they want in terms of financial success.Is it time to make your financial goals your ONE Thing?

To go far—in business or in life—you have to lean on the knowledge and experience of those who’ve been where you want to go. That’s what mentorship is all about.Easier said than done, though. People are busy—especially successful ones. But what if we told you that you can find all the mentors you need without them even knowing who you are?Scott Jeffrey Miller is a speaker, author, and podcast host with over 25 years in the leadership development industry. His new book Master Mentors Volume 2 is a compilation of thirty transformative insights from the greatest minds he’s had the honor to interview on his podcast. He’s learned not only what great mentors have to teach, but also how to put their insights into practice with what he calls “informal mentorship.” We discuss the ins and outs of mentorship, how to find the right mentor for you, and how you can be a mentor to others.If you’re looking for some mentorship of your own, Master Mentors Volume 2 is a great place to start.

When you’re setting big, audacious goals, you first need to ask yourself some big questions: What do you want out of life? How will you make an impact on the world?Seth Goldenberg is the author of Radical Curiosity, where he shares a practice that he believes will lead to incredible transformations in your life. The problem is that most of us have been taught to stop being curious. To stop asking questions, and to just do what’s expected. But you can’t live an outstanding life while doing things the way they’ve always been done.We have an interesting conversation about what it means to be curious, how to ask big questions, and how those questions can inform the direction and impact of your business.If you want to open up your curiosity, pick up a copy of Radical Curiosity today.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.We talk about:Breaking the norms by asking dangerous questionsWhy we need to second-guess “business as usual”Tools for developing more curiosityWhat holds people back from being curious and asking questionsConsidering the context of time and when we are ready for certain ideasWhy systems thinking will be a requirement for future leadersHow radical curiosity can change youLinks &amp; Tools from This Episodecuriosityand.companyRead: Radical CuriosityFree ResourcesWant to be a guest or share feedback?

There’s a common phrase that gets thrown around when it comes to teamwork: “There’s no ‘I’ in ‘Team.’” But every team is made up of individuals—when we lose sight of that, the whole team suffers.Teams need to be able to work together as a whole, but we can’t forget to address the individual influences and strengths that each person brings to the team. And each team, or even the entire company, can be viewed as a single “individual.” That’s the thesis that Brian and Mary Smith put forth.Brian is the founder and senior managing partner of IA Business Advisors, a management consulting firm that has worked with more than 18 thousand CEOs, entrepreneurs, managers, and employees worldwide. Together with his daughter Mary, they’ve authored the book Individual Influence: Find the “I” in Team.

What if you could free up 30 hours in your work—all while helping your business reach new revenue heights?Many entrepreneurs know what it’s like to feel constantly busy, putting out fires, and only able to work on the things directly in front of them rather than the work that matters most.Richard Shaull is the co-founder and CEO of Unleashed, where he helps entrepreneurs focus on finding a 2nd-In-Command to take that busy work off their plate and allow them to get to that incredibly important work. They believe that every great visionary needs a great operations counterpart and that by pairing the right people you can unleash their full potential.

One of the four thieves of productivity is the inability to say ‘no.’Whether it’s a deeply-rooted habit, a desire to avoid disappointing others, or the (often false) belief that saying ‘yes’ will make you look good as an employee, this is a trap that is too easy to fall for. But saying ‘yes’ to too many things can easily push out your own priorities.Linda Babcock and Brenda Peyser are the authors of “The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women’s Dead-End Work.” They are going to share how everyone, women in particular, can get comfortable with saying ‘no’ to the work that doesn’t push their career forward while still ensuring that important work gets done.If you want to sharpen the skill of saying ‘no,’ visit thenoclub.com where you can purchase the book, learn to start your own club, and more.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.We talk about:What inspired The No ClubExamples of non-promotable workGetting comfortable saying ‘no’ (even when it’s scary)Finding support and accountability for saying ‘no’Creating delegation win-winsHow organizations can operate equitablyLinks &amp; Tools from This EpisodeLearn more at thenoclub.comRead: The No ClubFollow on Twitter: @thenoclubFollow in Instagram: @thenoclubFree ResourcesWant to be a guest or share feedback?

Climbing Mt. Everest. To some it seems impossible—and yet many have managed this amazing feat of human endurance.

We all need a little vacation once in a while. But if that’s the case—and it is!—why do we often find it so hard to make time for those getaways?Many of us are afraid of what will happen if we stop working that we don’t allow ourselves to take the time off we need to rest and recharge. And if we do manage to take that time, we don’t unplug enough to really fulfill the goal of the vacation in the first place.Brooke Layman is going to break down why taking vacation time is so important, and more importantly, how you can protect your time to take that vacation and get the most out of it.If you’re looking to get the most out of your time—including your vacation—visit the1thing.com/free-resources to get our free guides to living The ONE Thing in your life.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.We talk about:Why vacations are importantHow people fail to use their vacations effectivelyHaving a goal for your vacationProtecting our prioritiesGaining clarity on what a successful vacation looks likeThe risks of not taking vacationLinks &amp; Tools from This EpisodeFree ResourcesWant to be a guest or share feedback?

It’s the time of year when individuals or organizations look at the goals they set for themselves and wonder whether they set the right goals or if the strategies they implemented to achieve them are falling short.A goal should stretch you, which means you may not have absolute clarity on how to achieve it when you start the year. You may want to stick with that goal and challenge yourself to find new ways to achieve it. Yet as the year goes on you’ll learn more about yourself, or perhaps life circumstances will change—we’re all familiar with that over the past few years. So when is it okay to make adjustments to our goals?We’re going to discuss what to do when your goal no longer feels achievable, or how to move forward when circumstances change. We’ll also talk about when it may be time to reexamine your goals and make some adjustments to be more in line with your current circumstances.If you’re interested in setting up some accountability within your relationship, we are hosting our annual Couples Goal Setting Retreat to get aligned on what success looks like and how to keep each other on track towards achieving them.

We talk a lot about setting big goals… but we don’t often get to explore what happens when you achieve them.After achieving your goals, you have to take the time to reflect on where you’ve been and set your compass to a new destination. As you grow personally and professionally, your goals are going to change. And when you reach those goals, you may be surprised to see a new path calling you.In going through this process, Geoff Woods, host of The ONE Thing podcast for over five years, has decided to step away from the show to focus on what matters most to him. We sit down with him to discuss his path to success, how he implemented the principles of The ONE Thing in his life, and how he was able to identify his ONE Thing.While things might be changing here at The ONE Thing, we are as committed as ever to helping you on your path to mastery.

How important do you think habits are in your life?The way you show up in the world today is a reflection of the habits you have formed over a lifetime.

If we want to look at the quality of our relationships, we have to look no further than the quality of the conversations that we have.The everyday conversations with the people we care about are either strengthening our relationships or undermining them – and we’re not always aware of which is taking place because we’re failing so slowly we think we’re succeeding. When it comes to marriages, it can be catastrophic. With children, it can lead to relationships full of regret. With business, it can lead to millions of dollars lost that could have been realized.&nbsp;So how do we fix it? How do we get clear on how we communicate with the people who matter most so that we build amazing relationships and build extraordinary lives? Susan Scott of "Fierce Conversations" has been on the show before, and she’s going to help us answer those questions.If you want to learn more about The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat, you can go to the1thing.com/setmygoals.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn…[02:02] How you arrived at the results in your life one conversation at a time[07:08] Having conversations with yourself[12:11] Turning feedback into a conversation instead of a preconception[21:56] Getting comfortable with discomfort[32:33] Having the courage to have difficult conversationsLinks &amp; Tools from This Episodefierceinc.comthe1thing.com/setmygoalsRead: "Fierce Conversations"–Do you keep writing the same thing over and over in your emails?We’re constantly sending the same email addresses, phone numbers, and replies to our coworkers and clients.

That said, most of us know what it feels like to question if we’re heading in the right direction at all.Mark takes us through his journey to discovering what the right seat was for him and his business – and unpacks his realization that the long-term success of his company could no longer depend solely on him.If you would like support on your own journey, visit the1thing.com, where individuals can learn about our Jumpstart Workshop, or where organizational leaders can request a consultation to bring The ONE Thing to their business.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[03:34] Moving from being a contributor to a leader[14:29] Getting clarity on your role[20:59] How to get your team to buy in on The ONE Thing[26:08] Creating a culture that supports the whole personLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethelloydgroupinc.com–Want a peek inside the minds of masters?MasterClass lets you learn from the best, with exclusive access to online classes taught by masters of their craft.

Sometimes, it takes having a massive amount of pain in your life to force you to make a change. We’ve all done it.&nbsp;We know what we should be doing – but sometimes we just don’t do it. That is, until we get to a point where there is no other option. That’s when an interest in making a change turns into a commitment to making a change, at the point where the pain of resisting change finally outweighs the discomfort of having to change.In this episode, we hear the story of Phillip Stutts. He was seeing massive success at the start of his entrepreneurial journey, at the expense of feeling extraordinary amounts of pain in his personal life. Once he hit the tipping point where he could no longer take it, he set out to answer the question: How can I thrive both personally and professionally?&nbsp;That’s when he was introduced to The ONE Thing.&nbsp;If you find yourself wanting some guidance on your journey, visit the1thing.com.

Do you know your Seven Circles? In life, there are seven key areas that deserve our focus and attention: Our spiritual life, our physical health, our personal life, our key relationships, our job, our business, and our finances.If you’re listening to this show, you probably naturally focus on your job, your business, and your finances. The problem is, those three areas are like rubber balls. If you drop them, they bounce back. The other four areas are more like glass balls. If you drop them, they can be scuffed, cracked, or shattered completely.In this episode, we focus in on one of those areas, key relationships. The truth is, we can naturally give our professional life so much attention that we don’t show up purposefully in the relationships that matter most to us. Susan Scott is the author of Fierce Conversations, which we’ve highlighted in the past. Her newest book, Fierce Love, takes those principles and applies them to your romantic relationships.&nbsp;Among many other things, she teaches us that relationships fail gradually, and then suddenly. This is an important conversation for all of us.We hope that this helps you begin to have the conversations you’ve been meaning to with the people in your life that matter most. Identify The ONE Thing you can do, such that by doing it, everything else becomes easier or unnecessary. That could be picking up the book, Fierce Love, or having that first conversation. Whatever it is, the important thing is that you act on it and turn this time spent into an investment.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[03:20] Why we need to have fierce conversations in our personal lives[10:18] How focusing on yourself can create a stronger relationship[17:11] The importance of setting non-negotiable conditions in your relationships[22:06] How to turn an argument into a conversation[34:51] Why most people are bad at confrontation—and how to get better at it[46:06] The ONE Thing you can do to start having fierce conversationsLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeLearn more at fierceinc.comRead: Fierce LoveRead: Fierce Conversations--Net-Results is the marketing automation experience you’ve been looking for.If you’ve been trying to grow a business online, you know that certain softwares can sometimes be a pain.

But that doesn’t mean you know how to remain accountable to it. We kicked off 2022 with an episode on why this year’s success comes down to ONE Thing. Now it’s time to make sure you’re able to follow through on making that success a reality.Many ordinary people will sit back and think, “I have all year to achieve my goals. I can relax.” But if the true purpose of your goal isn’t about the result, but is to be appropriate in the moment, then there are things you should have done in the first part of the year. That means that sitting back and relaxing is not a recipe for success.&nbsp;It’s time to have a deeper conversation, and get yourself fully accountable to your goals. That’s why this episode contains a series of questions you can ask yourself to do just that.&nbsp;Listen now for the questions that serve as a mental checklist to make sure you stay on track and end the year achieving your ONE Thing. And don’t be afraid to pause the episode as we go so that you can really stop and think about each question. That’s what this is for.

Chances are, if you’re listening to this, you’re familiar with The ONE Thing and you’re already implementing its lessons in your life. But what if you’re doing your best to follow your ONE Thing but still feel like you’re coming up short? What does success, or even progress, look like?&nbsp;Today’s guest is Laurie Roth. You’ve heard from Laurie before, but today is a little bit different. She’s been following the ONE Thing since she was introduced to it in 2018, but struggles to put it into practice each day. This is a common refrain. Knowing what we should do isn’t the same as actually doing it. And let’s be honest, when your boss or colleague needs something from you, it’s very easy to discard your priorities to be a people pleaser.&nbsp;The constant course corrections become exhausting and the lingering feeling that you’re doing something wrong can make you want to abandon your ONE Thing altogether, which is never the right thing to do.&nbsp;Your best option is to protect your time once it’s blocked. You will be amazed at just how receptive most people are if you push back, even just slightly. A subtle “I can get this done by this time,” instead of, “I’ll take care of this right away,” is a perfectly suitable and understandable response when someone’s asking for help. With that slight verbal variation, you’re not dropping your priorities in favor of someone else’s.&nbsp;Listen to the full episode as we reestablish this lesson and many more on our way to confidently and consistently committing to our ONE Thing.If you struggle to put protecting your 4-0-1-1 into action, then visit the1thing.com and request a consultation. We can arm you with the tools you need to ensure you’re actually able to put your ONE Thing to work.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[03:16] How do you know if you’re actually managing to live your ONE Thing?[05:46] How to properly use time blocking and a 4-0-1-1[20:36] The importance of shutting down constant notifications so we can focus on our prioritiesLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeFree Resources--Want a peek inside the minds of masters?MasterClass lets you learn from the best, with exclusive access to online classes taught by masters of their craft.

Do you find that you’re constantly setting lofty goals for yourself, but then backing down when it comes time to turn them into reality? It’s a common problem, even for the most successful people. Your goals might be completely achievable but without knowing how to properly evaluate your situation and choose the right path to take, we can get stuck at square one.Today’s guest, Matthew Hermann, knows this all too well. At an early age, he faced adversity as his mom was diagnosed with cancer, turning them from a poor family to one in severe debt. It made him prioritize making money above all else in life. His defining goal became financial security, so he went to medical school – only to then begin doubting his path.Over a decade later, he realized he needed change and managed to get himself unstuck from the flattened trajectory he was on. He’s now pursuing his true life’s goals – things that bring him happiness and contentment instead of just being what he assumed he was supposed to do. But derailing yourself so that you can pursue your dreams instead of someone else’s can often seem a lot easier said than done.&nbsp;So just how did Matthew Hermann make these huge career pivots successfully? You guessed it. By using the ONE Thing. And here’s how you can use it to make the changes you want to see in your life.If Matthew’s story sounds like you, then visit the1thing.com and request a consultation in order to find out exactly how the ONE Thing can turn your life around so that you’re on track to achieve the things that matter most to you.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[03:39] How Matthew got stuck on the path of medicine[06:36] Matthew’s biking trip across the country and how it led him to The ONE Thing[16:39] What Matthew did to achieve his ONE Thing[22:54] What Matthew’s life looks like nowLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeFree Resources--Building a successful business online can be challenging.From creating a standout online presence to building a marketing strategy to the technical side of running a website, it’s a lot to manage.

We all know what it’s like to have big goals accompanied by a sense of self-doubt. We might want to achieve incredible, ambitious goals – and, even better, we might be able to do it. Even, and especially, when we know it’s something we can achieve if we set our mind to it, there’s this little voice in the back of our minds telling us the task is insurmountable.&nbsp;This week, we talk to April Splide, who’s had a very successful career in The Air Force, about how she was able to take ONE Thing principles and use them to overcome these feelings in herself on the way to competing in Ironman Triathlons.&nbsp;When she first decided she wanted to compete, the idea seemed completely beyond anything realistic to her. By following a 4 1 1, she was able to make her dreams a reality. We break down the many tens of thousands of steps, laps, and miles, on her journey, and how you, too, can apply the ONE Thing in your life to achieve whatever you set your mind to.&nbsp;If you’d like to see what a 4 1 1 looks like for yourself, take a look at the free resources section on the1thing.com, where you’ll find countless examples, templates and tools to help you on your journey.&nbsp;To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn[00:00] How April found her ONE Thing[04:11] How she came to believe in herself&nbsp;[12:11] How a 4 1 1 let April take control of her time and achieve her goalsLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeEpisode #136: “How Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force Kaleth O.

Do you ever wonder how much time is wasted in your workplace because a request takes someone away from something more pressing or simply a better use of their time? No one can be expected to know every little detail about the inner workings of a company and its employees – and, with working from home, this is truer now than it’s ever been before.It might sound silly, but think about it. Let’s say you’ve set time aside to work on your ONE Thing, but then you get a call from your boss. Are you going to finish what you’re doing or drop it in order to be a people-pleaser? Most of you would do the latter. But in all likelihood, only you know the best use of your time within your job because you’re the only person spending as much time doing it.This sense of trust and freedom to prioritize your workload as you see fit is a staple of our corporate culture at ProduKtive, and it’s something that Sarah Hendricks is still getting used to. It makes sense, but pushing back when people ask you for your time is easier said than done.&nbsp;By the end of our conversation, she’s almost a different person, one who sees true value in putting her ONE Thing above all else.If this corporate culture sounds like something you want for your own business but don’t know how to truly implement, then visit the1thing.com and request a consultation in order to make sure your staff are clear about what matters most and that they’re willing to sometimes say “No.”To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[00:00] What it’s like to join ProduKtive[16:00] Leading by empowering your employees[23:27] The difficulties Sarah is encountering in adjusting to a new way of workingLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeFree Resources--Building a successful business online can be challenging.From creating a standout online presence to building a marketing strategy to the technical side of running a website, it’s a lot to manage.

It’s only January, but you could already be behind on your goals.The purpose of a goal is to be appropriate in the moment; it’s not about achieving a result. That means there are things you should be doing, starting January 1st, to ensure you’re on track for where you want to go by December 31st. Of course, most people don’t think this way. They may not have even set those goals. If you are not clear about what you need to be doing, this week, right now, to achieve your goals by the end of the year, you are falling behind.In this episode, we give you a healthy lens through which to view your goals at the beginning of the year and teach you how to set yourself up for success by playing with a lead.If you would like to have a conversation about driving this across your whole team, visit the1thing.com and request a consultation.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[01:06] Why you need to be clear about your goals starting January 1st[03:33] How to prioritize your monthly and weekly priorities[09:22] Identifying your ONE Thing[10:54] Why this matters for leadersLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeFree Resources--Building a successful business online can be challenging.From creating a standout online presence to building a marketing strategy to the technical side of running a website, it’s a lot to manage.

As we step into a new year, we often take stock of our goals and ambitions. But hang on, if you do this every year, how often do you set targets, then look back at the end of the year only to realize you could have done better? Chances are, there are a few fundamental issues with how you’re thinking about goal setting.One of the major pitfalls that trips people up with resolutions is that they set their goals, then they don’t think about them until the end of the year when it’s time to see if they succeeded or not. Think about applying that logic to any other aspect of your life. It makes about as much sense as leaving raw ingredients out and returning to the kitchen expecting them to be cooked and prepared as a meal. Not only will they not be cooked, but some ingredients may even spoil in the time you’ve waited.Or, we discuss another example: you’ve met someone you like, romantically. If you really hit it off and you like each other, you’re not going to say, “Let’s check in with each other a year from now and see how this is going” are you? Of course not; that’d be crazy. Why would you treat a relationship with your goals the same way?&nbsp;Tune in to this important episode before making your list of resolutions. Let’s break down the best way to approach annual goals so that they become a compass to guide our decisions throughout the year. The game has started. Now, it’s time to build a lead.If you would like help setting and applying goals like this for your year, visit the1thing.com, where we’ll be happy to set you up with a consultation to find the best way you can focus on and achieve your ONE Thing in the year ahead.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[03:00] What it means to unpack your annual goals[09:30] The importance of building a leadLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeFree Resources--Want a peek inside the minds of masters?MasterClass lets you learn from the best, with exclusive access to online classes taught by masters of their craft.

We’ve reached the final episode in our six-part series exploring the benefits of the ProduKtive System, our proven method for applying The ONE Thing to your life, such that by doing it, everything else becomes easier or unnecessary. Sometimes, good habits are all you need, but getting them to stick can be easier said than done. Let’s explore how we can build them into our lives with intentionality.&nbsp;Chances are, you’ve heard the idea that all you need to make seismic changes in your life are a few good habits. Many of us roll our eyes and dismiss the notion. If you want to lose weight, it’s easy to say, “Just form the habit of working out.” If it was that easy, you’d already be as fit as a pro athlete.The secret to all of this is that it actually is that easy. You just need to know what habits to form to get you from A to B. More often than not, that takes breaking down both cause and effect. What are the reasons you’re not achieving or maximizing your goals? What can you do to change that? That’s where our habit building should focus. And that’s the topic of this episode of the podcast.&nbsp;For more information on exactly how we can all build simple habits into our lives that allow us to really focus on our ONE Thing, visit the1thing.com.

This is part four of a six-part series diving into the ProduKtive System, our proven method for implementing the principles of The ONE Thing into your life. While these principles are surprisingly simple to understand, they can be challenging to put into practice. Today we focus on how you can prioritize things so that you can stay on track to hit your daily, monthly, and yearly goals.It might seem like merely knowing what you should be doing is enough, we know that’s never the case. People struggle to bridge the gap between their yearly plan and what they need to accomplish this week. They are often reactive when they need to be proactive and they struggle to say no to the things that don’t matter as much.&nbsp;In this episode, we unravel each of these ideas so that you can learn how to overcome them and achieve greater results in less time.If you would like help implementing this in your own life in less time and with less stress, visit the1thing.com.

Time is your most valuable resource. The problem is, most people spend their time instead of investing it. The resulting waste is amplified if you apply it across an entire organization.

Instead of just being busy, you’ll be productive and achieve extraordinary results both professionally and at home. While the principles of The ONE Thing are surprisingly simple, they can be challenging to live.What stops most people from living The ONE Thing is the lack of a system – which we’ve called “The ProduKtive System.” In the third of our six-part series, we discuss how to build a strategy and get clarity across your organization by creating a one-page business plan.

This is the second in a six-part series of episodes exploring the steps of the ProduKtive system. ProduKtive will change how you think for the better, allowing you to cast a stronger vision with bigger, more precise goals.&nbsp;In this episode, we cover what it truly means to cast a vision for the future. There are so many traps we can fall into that justify why we can’t stop and plan our futures out properly. Maybe we’re too busy. Maybe it’s impossible to see the future with any worthwhile clarity. Maybe we work for an organization and it’s not our vision that’s being implemented. Or maybe it’s just far too easy to stay attached to the way things used to be instead of having to imagine a whole new potential.&nbsp;If any of this sounds like you, then you should know that it’s so much easier than you think. A few simple adjustments will allow you to become actually productive instead of just busy.&nbsp;Casting a proper vision is the only way to make sure we work towards your ONE Thing instead of accidentally making our way to the wrong destination.

This is the first in a six-part series of episodes exploring the steps of the ProduKtive system. ProduKtive will change how you think for the better, allowing you to cast a stronger vision with bigger, more precise goals.&nbsp;In the subsequent weeks, we’ll be looking at building a plan, learning to effectively prioritize activities, using time blocking to reflect those priorities, and building habits that make it all possible. But to start with, let’s take a look at the lies of productivity.Do you consider yourself to be a good multitasker? Is your instinct to tackle everything at once? If so, you’re falling for the same myths so many people are tricked by when it comes to productivity. Studies show that we waste 28% of our time spent while multitasking. Just think how much time that is over the course of a year (it’s weeks, not days).&nbsp;Stop believing that everything on your plate matters equally, and start prioritizing.

Have you ever set goals that you thought would deliver you pure happiness once you achieved them – just to work hard, achieve them, and move on to the next without giving yourself a chance to feel fulfilled or celebrated? We all have and it’s something we should work out of our productivity-laden routines.How might we create more sustainable happiness on our road to achievement? Dan Sullivan has been working with business owners for decades under the program, The Strategic Coach, and was one of the pioneers of the coaching industry. We have a conversation around what it means to shift your perspective so you get out of the gap of dissatisfaction and live in the gain – where happiness lives.We’re always looking forward to the next goal, but we don’t give ourselves the chance to celebrate the successes we’ve had. This is common among ambitious people. The problem with this is that it undermines our happiness in the long run. Backed by his world-class expertise and experience in the field, Dan helps us lay the groundwork for this profound shift toward fulfilment.&nbsp;Do you have an opportunity to shift more toward the gain?

We all know the importance of setting goals. We have to know where we're headed and what we want to achieve in order to get there, right?&nbsp;The problem is that most people don’t know the best strategy for setting their goals. It seems obvious that our goals should be realistic, right? Wrong. It may seem counterintuitive, but, in reality, your goals should be wildly unrealistic. Reach for the stars.&nbsp;Another problem is the company we keep. Most of us surround ourselves with relationships and circumstance.

Over a trillion dollars were lost to voluntary turnover in the USA last year alone.

Do you know the questions you should ask to ensure a happy, fulfilling, and lasting relationship? More importantly, do you know who you ask them to? (Hint: sometimes, the correct answer is yourself).&nbsp;Conversations are the backbone of a relationship, but that doesn’t mean we know how to have them. Whenever one stops working, it’s a safe bet that it’s because of a breakdown of communication, be it not ensuring each other knows what’s expected of them, or simply allowing a disconnect to take hold.&nbsp;Friend of the show and New York Times bestselling author, Susan Scott, founded Fierce in 2001, after 13 years of leading CEO think tanks and over 10,000 hours conversing with senior executives led her to realize that, while no single conversation is guaranteed to change the trajectory of a career, business, or life, any conversation can. This led to her sharing her valuable knowledge in the form of the Fierce book series, starting with the award-winning Fierce Conversations: Achieving Success at Work and in Life, One Conversation at a Time.&nbsp;Now, she’s turning her insights toward the world of romance with the upcoming Fierce Love: Creating a Love That Lasts, One Conversation at a Time, so she joins us to lay everything out there: where do we go wrong in our love lives and what can we do to align them with our ONE Thing?THE ONE THING TO IMPLEMENT FROM THIS EPISODESusan Scott’s philosophy is to take things one conversation at a time, but to really maximize what we get out of each one. Those conversations require us to think and define the parameters of what we want to get out of them – and, sometimes, that’ll mean that we have the conversation with ourselves. That’s the best way to discover our relationship ONE Thing.&nbsp;To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[02:30] What inspired Susan to venture away from business and toward romance[13:50] Some of the myths that derail relationships[21:30] The most important conversations you can have[28:20] Susan’s best advice for people starting their search for answersLinks &amp; Tools From This [email protected] - email Susan and she’ll alert you when the book is available to orderRead Susan’s first book: Fierce Conversations: Achieving Success at Work &amp; in Life, One Conversation at a Time--Do you sometimes wish your home were smarter?Somfy is an organization that creates motorized solutions that automate and connect blinds, shades, blades, rolling shutters, and so much more.

Every organization has it’s impact players – those indispensable team members that you can count on when the stakes are high. And while others do their job, impact players find the job to be done. Whether they’re center stage or behind the scenes, leaders know who these top players are… and they want more of them on their team.While their impact is obvious, it’s not always as clear what makes these impact players different from their peers. How do you stack your team with people who can make the most impact when you don’t have a proven way of identifying them?Liz Wiseman invested her career in studying leadership, and, as she did, she became curious about the teams that we lead. She studied top contributors to begin identifying what they are doing differently, and how their mindset could potentially be available to everyone else who wants to contribute at that high level.As you listen to this episode, listen out for how to identify impact players at work, and then join us at our Goal Setting Retreat to figure out how to be an impact player throughout your whole life.

Do you understand the history of time? Why do we view time the way we do?We have a problem with time: the majority of people spend it rather than investing it. They don’t view it as their most valuable resource, and they don’t hold it accountable to delivering a return – personally or professionally.Joe Sanok is going to help us understand why we view time the way that we do.

Many of us grew up hearing the old adage: if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. But as you get into the workforce – especially as a leader of people – part of your job is taking a stand for their greatness when they may be fighting for their limitations.Think about a time when you received some harsh feedback that you ended up being really grateful for. It probably helped you grow as a person. What did they do that made it successful for you? And what would have happened if you had not received that feedback?At the heart of a successful conversation is what Kim Scott calls “radical candor.” It’s about being candid with people and saying what needs to be said for their benefit. And it’s called “radical” because of how rare it actually is.One of the commitments you have to make to live a life of extraordinary results is to live the accountability cycle.

Every single one of us knows what it feels like to have too much to do – and not enough time to get it done. Because, so often, we are spending time instead of investing it, there’s an incredible amount of waste.But there’s a different approach. There’s a way to see time as the valuable resource it is, invest it into the things that matter most, actually see a return on that investment, and, as a result, get more done in fewer hours with less stress.Geoff explains this very thing on Phillip Stutts’ The Undefeated Marketing Podcast. He gives examples of how organizations and teams just like yours have used the principles and models of The ONE Thing to shift from being busy to being productive.Look inward, and, based on your team, identify The ONE Thing you can do from this episode that would make moving from busy to productive easier or unnecessary.

What is the purpose of a goal? Many would say it's the first step towards achieving something – but that isn’t the case. The purpose of a goal is not to achieve a result; it’s to be appropriate in the moment.This means that our goals should be a compass for who we can become. It’s not about the result. It’s about informing who you have to be every moment of your life in order to become the kind of person who gets those results.Unfortunately, school is only focused on results. Even in organizations, employees are often judged based on results. We rarely have someone in our lives who teaches us how to think. That’s when you have to step up and become a leader for yourself. Suzy Batiz has been on this journey her entire life. She’s the founder and CEO of Poo-Pourri, a massive global company. And this all came from divorcing herself from the result so that she could instead focus on who she could become. She shares her story of going bankrupt twice before finding the idea for Poo-Pourri and scaling it to what it is today.If you’re an individual that would like help setting goals that could become a compass for your life, visit the1thing.com/setmygoals.

At last year’s Goal Setting Retreat, Gary Keller said this: “If you have big goals and you haven’t achieved them yet, there are only two reasons that you’re where you are instead of where you want to be: it’s either the actions you took or the relationships you have.” And he’s right.Think about the habits, the choices, and the relationships that got you to where you are today. Now think about what you may be missing in order to achieve growth and pursue bigger goals.Listen in to the entire talk Gary gave at that retreat, and if you want to be a part of this year’s Goal Setting Retreat, visit the1thing.com/setmygoals.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.In this episode, you will learn...[03:01] The role of habits in your life[06:57] Forming the habit of forming habits[10:04] Having a relationship with your goals[15:33] Building habits that allow you to think bigger[21:10] How to identify a missing habit[26:56] Choosing your mentors[34:56] Investing your time effectively[42:23] Frontloading your priorities and saying no[47:36] The advice Gary would give his past selfLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/setmygoals--Your health is incredibly important.&nbsp;And yet, it can be a struggle to get exercise and diet dialed in.

Last year, we shared the story of Mark and Jennie Donohue and their experience setting shared goals at our annual Goal Setting Retreat.Let’s refresh: Mark worked long hours but wasn’t seeing any more money come in. Jennie was a stay-at-home mom with an online coaching business, and she was feeling unsupported and misunderstood. Their marriage was struggling. They were trying to move their family forward, but they were both moving in opposite directions. Something had to change.What happened at that Goal Setting Retreat changed their lives. They improved their marriage and got their lives on the same page.

Have you started thinking about your long-term goals yet?One of the things that causes the most stress – whether it’s for individuals or couples – is money. Maybe you feel like you should be making more or like there’s not enough at the end of the month, but what if you could change your view around finance?

You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. This is true of every area of your life – especially your finances.You may think of your financial wellbeing as something you do alone or with your significant other. You may think it comes down to your level of discipline or ambition. But there’s one overlooked thing that also determines how much money you make, save, or invest: the people you surround yourself with.If you’re purposeful, you won’t just have relationships, you’ll have wealth determiners: people that have a positive influence on your life and your finances. Who do you surround yourself with? Are they helping you or hindering you from building your wealth? Jay and Wendy Papasan are going to show you how to identify the difference.Every year, we hold a Goal Setting Retreat for couples and teach this concept (along with an exercise to determine if you are missing wealth determiners and how to find them, or if any of your current relationships are undermining your wealth building).

We all want to be more present and less stressed. We want to feel at peace and have mental clarity so we can be better leaders — at work and at home. But for high achievers, counterbalancing work life and personal life can feel easier said than done.Jon Macaskill is a retired Navy SEAL-turned mindfulness teacher who learned firsthand how meditation can help you cope with stress, transform your relationships, and get better results. He knows that finding peace and productivity is not about doing everything — it’s about focusing on the small habits that make clarity possible, and sustainable.Mindfulness is not a skill to be perfected. Rather, it is a practice to keep showing up for. As leaders, you can start small by taking one breath before taking action.

The ONE Thing is the surprisingly simple truth behind extraordinary results. That truth: time is our most valuable resource.The problem is that most people wake up every day spending their time because they were never taught how to invest it. How to make sure that they had clarity on their priorities – that their calendar actually reflected their priorities instead of being filled with meetings and to-dos.We’re going to dive into some practical ways that you can achieve even higher levels of results for yourself personally. The ONE Thing outlines the idea of moving from E to P: from entrepreneurial to purposeful. You act entrepreneurially when you rely on your natural abilities: doing the best that you can do. Being purposeful takes looking outside of yourself to do things to the best standard that they can be done. While it’s a simple idea, it’s not easy. That’s where Ron Friedman comes in. He literally wrote the book on decoding greatness (appropriately called “Decoding Greatness”). He walks you through what it means, how you can benchmark and reverse engineer your progress, and the three simple steps you can take to get started immediately.It can be frustrating, bridging the gap between where you are and where you should be… but it doesn’t have to be. If you stop working based on your natural abilities and start relying on the examples of those who’ve gone before you, spotting what made the difference, and putting that into a simple plan that you can execute in your life.

When you start living The ONE Thing, you begin to understand that not everything matters equally. You get clarity on what matters most. You begin doing the most important things first and, then, you earn the right to address everything else. When you do that, results show up and they show up fast. And, as that happens, your life gets bigger.What people don’t understand is that as your life gets bigger, the number of big rocks in your way increases. And what happens when you get to the point where there are more rocks than you have time for? That’s when you need to address the scale. This moment can be a real challenge for people.How do we change our outlook towards doing the most important things? And stop assuming that just because it’s important, something has to be hard? Let’s ask a different question: “How can I make it easier to do what matters most?” Greg McKeown, author of “Essentialism” and the brand new book, “Effortless,” answers just that. After tragedy struck his daughter, he wiped the plate clean, took an extremely difficult situation, and found a way to make managing it effortless.For those of you who are leaders inside of organizations, understanding what your priorities are, and creating a common language around them, will create extraordinary results.

As you journey on, living The ONE Thing, there are specific steps you take: from treading, to implementing, to mastering, to empowering.Treading is when you’re just trying to keep your head above water. Everything is moving so fast and you’re trying so hard, but it’s just not sustainable. Then you discover the principles of The ONE Thing and you start to implement them. Once you start to experience the benefits they bring, you have to make the decision to commit to mastery. And once you take that path, you really start to pick up momentum and realize that the highest level of success is not your own, but in your ability to empower others.Elizabeth Curry has gone on this journey. Starting as a working mother and wife and a small business owner, she was treading. Then she discovered The ONE Thing and she implemented a few simple things that had a massive impact on her life. Eventually, she hit the tipping point and committed to mastering The ONE Thing, and now she works within the organization, empowering people on a massive scale.There’s no right or wrong way to approach The ONE Thing.

It’s a sign that you’ve been spending your time with no expectation of a return. Start investing your time: treat it as the valuable resource that it is and invest it in ways that will yield something you can measure, both personally and professionally. Most people bounce through their day, reacting to emails, meetings, and coworkers’ obligations, but there is a better way.It’s called time blocking: scheduling time with yourself to do whatever you deem to be most important. But even if you know what that is, it can be hard to stick to your plans. We’re going to take a peek behind the curtain of the Living Your ONE Thing Community, where thousands of people around the globe find clarity, build power habits that stick, and learn to time block so that their calendars reflect their priorities.

Something we all struggle with is finding the right balance between thriving professionally and thriving personally.It’s easy to focus on the professional side of things—your job, business, finances—and lose sight of your personal priorities. The problem is your professional priorities are easy to pick up once you drop them, but if you’re not careful, your personal priorities can be damaged forever. How do we manage to be purposeful in both areas of life?Craig Kessler is the COO of Topgolf, a husband, and father of three boys. He wants to continue thriving professionally, but he’s identified that what matters most to him is the personal side of life. Instead of acting like an entrepreneur and trying to figure things out, he leveraged his powerful network to ask people who seemed to have it all. He took the advice of everyone he reached out to and created “The Dad Advice Project.” Whether you’re a mother or father, this book is full of simple things you can do to invest in the relationships that matter to you most.We all have the opportunity to invest our focus in the relationships that matter most.

As you go on your journey of living The ONE Thing, ultimately, you are going to be confronted with tough decisions to make with regard to what you want and how to get it.This is the challenge of life. You wake up every day and there are all of these things we could know, have, or do. We have to make choices about what we want and how we go about getting it — even when those choices are difficult. It is so, so important. So, how do you get comfortable choosing the difficult, so that you can go on to achieve extraordinary results?This is an introduction to a brand new podcast from MAPS Business Training & Coaching called, “Choose Difficult,” which shares stories of extraordinary individuals who have chosen the difficult path and changed the world.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.Links & Tools From This EpisodeListen: "Choose Difficult" podcast Mentioned in this episode:BambeeGo to Bambee.com RIGHT NOW and type in The ONE Thing under PODCAST when you sign up - it’ll really help the show.

If you really want to live The ONE Thing purposefully, there are three commitments you have to make: you have to choose to follow the path of mastery; to move from entrepreneurialism to having purpose; and to live the accountability cycle.The first two, alone, will change everything. Following the path of mastery and moving to a life of purpose in just one area will make everything else easier — and that area is the ability to ask questions.Most of us artificially impose a ceiling over what’s possible without even realizing. It’s a simple mistake we make by telling people what to do and giving them answers instead of taking the opportunity to ask questions, ourselves. Developing the habit of asking questions instead of giving answers is a journey to understanding the difference between a productive line of inquiry and simply shutting down communication.Abe Shreve has been on his own path of question mastery and he’s going to walk us through how we can solve some of the biggest challenges we face by asking questions as leaders. He’ll teach us how to ask questions that expand the very nature of what is and isn’t possible.This is a path of mastery. It doesn’t end, but the journey, itself, is valuable. You can start by simply grabbing a pen and paper and writing down questions every day.

When you think about living an extraordinary life, the path to getting there is not by doing everything. In fact, it really comes down to the habits that you form.

The ONE Thing is the surprisingly simple truth behind extraordinary results. In order for you to achieve extraordinary results, you can’t follow the ordinary path. If you do what most people do, you will get the results that most people get.Will Brown discovered The ONE Thing when he was in college. When he realized that the traditional path of college-to-career wasn’t for him, he dropped out of school, started a real estate investment company, and earned over $1 million by the time he was nineteen.Even outside of a typical school setting, Will invested in his education, listening to podcasts and reading books, and put what he learned into action. On this journey, he started to spot the patterns behind the results he desired, building models and systems to empower other people to produce them, enabling him to keep his focus on his ONE Thing.Challenge why you’re doing what you’re doing.

It’s not about the result; it’s about who you need to become to earn the right to achieve your goals. When you imagine the future, who is the person that you need to become to be a leader in that future? Imagine it and make it real. Your future as a leader starts now.Jacob Morgan is a four-time best-selling author, including his most recent work, “The Future Leader.” This conversation will spur you to ask yourself important questions.

If you’re like most people, you know how it feels to be so busy that you don’t have time for yourself. Still, at the end of a busy day, you could find yourself questioning how much you got done.Anytime in your life when you’re hitting a ceiling of achievement, you’re in need of a trusted person: to delegate work to, or a mentor or coach who can help you shatter that ceiling and go even higher. This isn’t a decision to rush, though. The journey to finding the person that’s right for you and your work, while simple, is not easy.Russell Gray, like most business owners, struggled with letting go. He didn’t want to delegate out of fear that others wouldn’t complete the work as well as he did&nbsp; — until life forced him to release that hold. When he lost a loved one, he had to find a way to narrow his focus and increase his income while also working less. He had to find the one person who could allow him to achieve even more, in less time, with less stress. You’re going to hear about how he kept asking what ONE Thing would make everything else easier or unnecessary, and how, once he identified it, he went after it.How can you begin the journey to having your calendar reflect your priorities?

While it’s unprecedented, it represents a massive opportunity. Teams with so much diversity of thought and experience have the power to innovate and solve big problems.At the same time, though, it’s created unforeseen challenges for even the most seasoned leaders.

We are in the business of time, our most valuable resource.The problem is, most people go through their days spending their time… because they were never taught to invest it. Everything that we do here at The ONE Thing is to help you better invest your time so that you can see the ROI: achieving extraordinary results. How you invest your time varies depending on what you do professionally, and what that looks like changes dramatically when you go from being an employee to being an owner.When the leadership team of HomeTeam started using the principles of The ONE Thing, one of their biggest challenges was applying the principles and models of their business to a franchisee who may have never been a business owner before. When you have complete control over how you spend your time in your business, it’s critical that you make sure you are investing your time instead of spending it.If you would like to learn more about how we work with organizations, you can go to the1thing.com/training and visit our corporate section.In this episode, you will learn...[04:16] The biggest challenge franchisees face when starting a business[08:03] Separating what should be doing from what you could be doing[16:31] How living The ONE Thing is the best way to model it to others[22:11] The results that come from following The ONE Thing[24:53] How to think and act like a business ownerLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/training--Do you run a small business?Small business owners wear a lot of hats.

No one succeeds alone. In fact, our ideas and impact can multiply when we collaborate with the right people, at the right time, on the right ONE Thing.Last week, we shared about a new ONE Thing tool to help people discover their core values and live their purpose—the Core Values Deck. We’re going to dive into the story of how the idea for that deck became a collaboration in order to reach more people and make a bigger impact.Opportunities are everywhere, and with every new opportunity, you have to choose: do you say yes or no? And when you’re a leader, this choice affects everyone within your organization. But when everyone understands each others’ core values, you’ll be able to align your decision making with what matters most and multiply your efforts.When you understand someone’s core values, it can be a compass to predicting how successful you will be together and the scale of the impact you can have.

Tapping into Your ONE Thing is a journey, not a lightning bolt.To help you navigate that journey, Jay Papasan talks about a new tool we’re developing here at The ONE Thing: The Core Values Deck.

The gap between where you are and where you want to be can feel overwhelming, even insurmountable.But Justin Donald shows us that achieving your financial goals is not impossible. Justin is a family man with a business, not the other way around. He set a goal in his early 20’s to stop trading hours for dollars and create the freedom to buy back his time however he chooses. He now has the ability to choose to invest in the relationships that he wants as his number-one priority —&nbsp;and he did it by building habits that brought him closer to his financial goal one step at a time.What are the habits that would make achieving your goals easier or unnecessary?

Everything we do here at The ONE Thing is about time. Specifically, helping you better invest your time so you can achieve extraordinary results.When you invest your money, you have an expectation of gaining a return on that investment. While this is a widely known expectation, most people don’t hold their time to the same standard. As we talk about living an extraordinary life, a lot of it comes down to not living a life of regret&nbsp;&nbsp;— and one of the most common regrets we hear is that people spent too much time at work, at the expense of investing their time with the people they love.What would it look like if you put your family first? If you made your family your ONE Thing, and made your business come after? That’s what Jon Vroman did.

How important do you think habits are in your life?The way you show up in the world today is a reflection of the habits you have formed over a lifetime.

In “The ONE Thing,” Gary Keller and Jay Papasan write about the three commitments you must make if you want to live a life of extraordinary results: following the path of mastery, moving from being entrepreneurial to purposeful, and living the accountability cycle.&nbsp;Are you making those commitments?Brandon Turner, who you may know from the Bigger Pockets podcast, shows us what it looks like to live those commitments. This is a vulnerable take on how one person who is a big thinker and goal-setter has gone on a path of living those three commitments—with his significant other. You’ll hear how his identity has played a role in the achievement of his goals, the importance of having a relationship with your goals, what to do when things change, and how going small can help you go really big over the long run.The path to everything you want starts with ONE Thing at a time. For Brandon, that ONE Thing is building a purposeful approach to setting goals.

What does it look like when times get hard and you’re not sure if you’re going to be able to achieve your goal anymore? How do you stay committed and achieve the goal?This episode is a case study about goals. Not about setting goals but having a relationship with them. Because we don’t need new or better ways to set goals — we just need a way to create a relationship with the goals that we do have. The purpose of a goal is not to achieve a result but to be appropriate in the moment. It’s who you become along the way to achieving that goal that matters.Hal Elrod is the author of “The Miracle Morning,” but this is not about “The Miracle Morning.” This is about Hal’s goal of creating “The Miracle Morning Movie” and the story of how he had to have a relationship with that goal to weather massive setbacks. Listen to his mindset and how he stayed committed, because every single one of us has something to learn from this.If you would like to join us in setting your goals and having a relationship with them for the next year, go to the1thing.com/setmygoals.In this episode, you will learn...[03:52] What made Hal want to do more after the massive success of his book[07:30] The six practices of the Miracle Morning[11:32] How Hal started the process of making his film[20:58] The mindset of working through a curveball[28:16] Advice for having a relationship with your goalsLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodemiraclemorningmovie.comRead: “The Miracle Morning”the1thing.com/setmygoals--How do you start up when the world is upside down?Sit Down Startup is a new weekly podcast from Zendesk.

The purpose of a goal is to be appropriate in the moment. Every year we set goals around the areas of our life that matter to us, and when we get to the end of the year we look back and say we’ll do better next year—especially around finances.The problem is that, until you learn to have a relationship with your goals, your future won’t change. When we look at some of the biggest causes of stress in our life, money often ends up at the top of the list. And almost all of us feel like we are meant for more, but we were never taught in school how to build wealth.David Greene learned to set goals for his wealth and have a relationship with them.

When we originally launched The ONE Thing podcast, we understood the importance of having weekly conversations with people who were living The ONE Thing—the areas they were succeeding in, and the areas they were struggling with. While the principles are simple, it isn’t always easy.The purpose of a goal is not the result, it’s to be appropriate in the moment. It’s to inform how you behave right now to be in alignment with your goals.This weekend, we kick off our Virtual Goal Setting Retreat for couples, and the following weekend will be the retreat for individuals and teams. You can be anywhere you want in five years as long as you’re willing to line up your dominos and knock them over. You were destined to achieve amazing things in this world, and this retreat will give you the framework to get there.To learn more, you need to go to the1thing.com/setmygoals RIGHT NOW.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.Links &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/setmygoalsMentioned in this episode:BambeeGo to Bambee.com RIGHT NOW and type in The ONE Thing under PODCAST when you sign up - it’ll really help the show.

As leaders, It’s easy to get stuck in the idea that we always have to have the answers—that we always have to be prepared with the perfect response to deliver wisdom to our teams.

We are entering the time of year where we start to set our goals for the upcoming year.The mistake people often make is that they commit to things that look attractive in the short run without understanding if it’s a distraction from where you want to go in the long run. How do we put a plan in place that honors both our short term commitments and long term goals?In this conversation, you’ll hear how Deirdre Wheatley-Liss reached out to our team because she needed some help. She discovered The ONE Thing a little over a year ago, and she started updating her 411 every week and having 411s with her team. As a result, she saw extraordinary growth in the midst of this wild and crazy year. But now she realizes that if she continues to go down the same path, she’s going to burn out. You’ll hear how she gets clarity on where she wants to be someday, and how that brings focus on what her goal needs to be for the next year.If you would like an experience like this, helping you set your goals to the now, we strongly recommend you join our Goal Setting Retreat at the1thing.com/setmygoals.In this episode, you will learn...[05:05] What happened when Deirdre implemented The ONE Thing[10:57] Finding out what matters to you[18:26] How to know that you’re on track for your goal[24:39] Getting a system in place[31:17] Finding the priorities to put in place to achieve your goal[36:53] Asking instead of tellingLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/setmygoalsthe1thing.com/training--Do you keep writing the same thing over and over in your emails?We’re constantly sending the same email addresses, phone numbers, and replies to our coworkers and clients —&nbsp;and over time, the busy work really starts to add up.

Every year people set their goals and, without realizing it, they struggle to have a relationship with them.Gary Keller says that the purpose of a goal is not to achieve a result but to appropriate being in the moment; it’s a compass to help you identify how you have to behave today so that you’re in alignment with where you want to go. But before we can find alignment, we have to have clarity on our core values.Cathryn Lavery is the co-found of BestSelf Co., and she joined us at our goal-setting retreat last year with her fiance Emily Colman. By attending, not only did they figure out what their vision for their lives looked like together but they figured out what their core values were. And as it turned out, these values transformed their alignment in an unprecedented year.If you are interested in setting your goals and want some help discovering your core values, you can visit the1thing.com/corevalues to pre-order our Core Values Deck.

If we want to look at the quality of our relationships, we have to look no further than the quality of the conversations that we have.Here’s the problem: The everyday conversations with the people we care about are either strengthening our relationships or undermining them—and we’re not always aware of which because we’re failing so slowly we think we’re succeeding. When it comes to marriages, it can be catastrophic. With children it can lead to relationships full of regret. And with business it can lead to millions of dollars lost that could have been realized. So how do we fix it? How do we get clear on how we communicate with the people who matter most so that we build amazing relationships and build extraordinary lives?Susan Scott of "Fierce Conversations" has been on the show before, and she’s going to help us answer those questions.If you want to learn more about The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat, you can go to the1thing.com/setmygoals.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.In this episode, you will learn...[04:14] How you arrived at the results in your life one conversation at a time[09:02] Having conversations with yourself[14:45] Turning feedback into a conversation instead of a preconception[26:42] Getting comfortable with discomfort[35:18] Having the courage to have difficult conversationsLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodefierceinc.comthe1thing.com/setmygoalsRead: "Fierce Conversations"--Does your calendar feel out of control?It’s important to have a diverse portfolio, and most successful portfolios include a diversified set of real estate.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could fire up a time machine and travel to the end of this pandemic? Better yet, what if you could transform to an extraordinary future where you not only accomplish all your big goals, but you achieve them without stress or overwhelm?This may sound like a fantasy, but it’s more achievable than you think.

But ask yourself: Is fine where extraordinary happens?

Socrates said, “The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new.”The truth is that change is hard—especially uninvited change. It is often that change that pushes you in directions you would have otherwise never explored, and that’s where growth happens. What becomes possible if, when ushered into new territory, you quickly reset your vision on what you are creating and let go of what existed before?Donna Miller’s proven business model of over 25 years was suddenly tested in ways that she couldn’t have imagined.

What if we told you that you are only one habit away from making your goal a reality?It’s the truth. The problem is that, while habit formation is simple, it can be challenging. For anyone who’s tried to make a habit stick you know what it feels like to struggle with consistency and doubt.BJ Fogg, the author of the best-selling book “Tiny Habits”, is going to help you understand that the key to habit formation is not about thinking big and acting big: It’s about thinking big and going small and trusting that, if you can identify that domino and whack away at it, all of the other dominos will fall. Some habits take longer to form than others, and that’s why we’re having this conversation today. We’re going to dissect why the key to habit formation is all about forming tiny habits.Going small takes courage when our ego wants to go big. The path to getting everything you want starts with one thing at a time. Do you have the courage to go small? We want to be on the journey with you.

How do we unpack the lies that keep us from experiencing extraordinary success?One lie in particular that holds most people back is that “big is bad.” It’s tricky to debunk because, when you put “big” and “results” in the same sentence, many people jump straight to thinking that big is complex, time-consuming, or intimidating.But the four ambitious leaders of the Empire Building podcast live in a way that embraces big thinking. The massive goals they’ve set for their businesses are only exceeded by their even bigger visions for what it means to live an extraordinary life. They are successful entrepreneurs, philanthropists, wives, and mothers who have started and expanded multi-million dollar businesses, and they share their tips for thinking bigger than you ever thought possible.It is so important to surround yourself with people who build you up and support you.

If you want to change your life, you have to get honest with yourself.What’s working? What isn’t working? Who’s bringing you forward and who’s bringing you back? Candid self-reflection can reveal things you wish weren’t there, but knowing what you’re dealing with makes big change possible.Our guest, Grace Vroom, knew something had to give; there were countless areas of her life that she wanted to improve, but it was only after getting honest about her addiction to alcohol that she started to make any progress. Sobriety felt like such a daunting must-do on Grace’s self-improvement to-do list that she didn’t know how to start and she didn’t think she could sustain it.

Have you taken any time to be grateful today?When we think about forming power habits, we often think about doing something that will improve our productivity or health. We rarely consider the transformative power of mindset habits, and one of the most powerful habits is gratitude. That may seem like an easy or trivial thing, but in practice, embodying a state of gratitude every day is both surprisingly challenging and significant.Our guest John Israel, founder of The Mr. Thank You Project and author of "The Mr. Thank You Project," experienced an epiphany: if he wanted to make a huge, positive impact on the world, he had to start by doing just ONE thing to express his gratitude every day. This ONE habit, over time, has truly unleashed something extraordinary, and in this episode, we invite you to become a part of it.If you want to set yourself up for success on your 66-day challenge, try the free 66-Day Challenge Training.In this episode, you will learn...[10:08] How to form a keystone habit for embodying gratitude[18:31] How to manage your time so that you don’t fail a 66-day (or 365-day) challenge[22:36] How to be grateful when you don’t want to be[37:34] Why you should consider doing your own 66-day challengeLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/habitsMr. Thank You Project: https://mrthankyou.comRead: The Mr. Thank You Project--Do you wish there was one place your team could go to find the answers they need?Sweet Process is a software that enables companies to have a central place for all their procedures, processes, and policies.

Did you come into this year imaging what was possible for yourself?Many of us had big plans for all the things we were going to accomplish this year—whether personally, professionally, or both—and then COVID-19 hit and we were derailed by our new reality. None of us had the existing habits we needed to support our new environments.Tom Bilyeu took a look at his life and realized he was capable of more. He decided to be the kind of person whose habits brought him closer to his health goals and he exercises them every day. While he calls himself an “average person,” he credits habits and routines with allowing him to experience overwhelming success in his life, his business, and most importantly, his health.The path to getting everything you want starts with one habit at a time.

Think back to your childhood: What did you want to be when you grew up? What dreams did you have for yourself? What did you envision your life looking like?Along your journey, you may have come up across ceilings of achievement—or on the other end, you may have been thinking too small. Any time you are hitting up against a ceiling of achievement in your life, you are missing either a person or a system, and today we’re going to look at exactly why that is true. Having the right people in our lives, and the right systems in place to help us do what we do efficiently, can allow us to achieve more than we ever thought possible.Chris Winton grew up with the dream of becoming a manager for the local grocery store, and today—because of having the right mentors and learning the right leadership skills along the way—he finds himself as the officer at a Fortune 50 company. He is the author of the new book “C-4 Leadership” and has a tremendous amount of value to share.What’s one thing you can put into action today?

How do we lead people through fear? The answer, as simple as it may seem, is goals—but the right goals.If the purpose of a goal is to be appropriate in the moment, many of us have lost sight of the fact that our actions may not be leading us to where we want to go. We don’t want to sacrifice our long-term visions and our long-term goals based on short-term circumstances. As an individual, you can either be focusing on the past, the present, or the future. If you’re focusing on the past or present, you can’t move forward. The only way you move forward is by having goals, focusing on those goals, and allowing those goals to inform how you behave today so that you start knocking the dominos down that make everything else easier or unnecessary.How are you doing at having a relationship with your goals, and do you need any changes? Now is the time to reflect on that and start thinking about the future and ensure that you are moving in the right direction for what makes sense today.If you feel like now is the time to get back into the driver's seat and getting intentional with your goals, you can join our Virtual Goal Setting Retreats at the1thing.com/setmygoals.In this episode, you will learn...[03:51] Having a relationship with our goals[09:31] Adjusting our goals for today[26:40] The problems with most people’s goals[43:40] Two people’s experience with the Goal Setting RetreatLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/setmygoals--Do you keep writing the same thing over and over in your emails?We’re constantly sending the same email addresses, phone numbers, and replies to our coworkers and clients —&nbsp;and over time, the busy work really starts to add up.

Are you living a life by default or a life by design?Most people go through their lives by default: They wake up, check email, show up to the office, check email again, go to their first meeting, check email again, etc. And by the end of the day, they wonder why they didn’t get anything done. Day after day, this is how things play out, and they get to where they are by default — without intention or design.Billionaires do things differently. They imagine what they want their lives to look like someday, even if they don’t know. They push past “I don’t know” and search for an answer. You have to think big, go small, and trust the dominos will fall — and in this episode, we share the models you can follow along the journey.If you are ready to take action, we encourage you to go to the1thing.com/setmygoal and you can learn more about implementing these frameworks.In this episode, you will learn...[02:21] Priorities and values from the community[12:18] Pro tips of the GPS[17:15] Going small and having a relationship with one category[22:42] Front-loading your goalsLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/setmygoal--Do you wish there was one place your team could go to find the answers they need?Sweet Process is a software that enables companies to have a central place for all their procedures, processes, and policies.

Do you ever find yourself going through the motions? Operating as if you’re on auto-pilot?Sometimes we get so used to the way things are that we forget to imagine the potential for the way things could be if we set our mind to it —&nbsp;if we asked the big questions and took the time to search for those answers. As a result, we settle into what’s comfortable in exchange for what’s possible.No one achieves greatness on auto-pilot. So many people are living their lives by default instead of by design. When you go through life by default you’re committing to something ordinary. You’re choosing good enough when a life of impact, legacy, and abundance could be available to you. We’re going to dive into why goal setting to the now matters, the models that make accomplishing big goals possible, and unpacking the limiting beliefs that could be stopping you.If you feel like you would like to take action, we encourage you to go to the1thing.com/setmygoal and you can learn more about implementing these frameworks.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.In this episode, you will learn...[03:34] Staying in relationship with our goals[07:57] The types of goals we set and how they serve us[13:50] How to live The ONE Thing[19:54] Time blocking your priorities[23:48] Recapping how billionaires set their goals[27:06] Setting goals with the people who have a stake in your successLinks &amp; Tools From This Episodethe1thing.com/setmygoal--Do you keep writing the same thing over and over in your emails?We’re constantly sending the same email addresses, phone numbers, and replies to our coworkers and clients —&nbsp;and over time, the busy work really starts to add up.

While we’ve all been forced to change the way we work and get things done, there’s one thing that hasn’t changed — the need to have conversations with the people that matter most, conversations that enrich our relationships.While we’ve all been working from home, this has presented its own set of circumstances. We’ve been closer to some people, which could create conflict, and knowing how to have conversations to enrich that relationship may be a mystery to some people. And since we have been more distant from our teams and our customers, we need to figure out how to have those conversations as well.That’s why we reached out to our friends at Fierce Conversations. Their model for how to have fierce conversations is more relevant than ever. You’re going to meet their Senior Vice President of Learning, Ronna Detrick.

Are you holding on too tightly to the way things used to be?With all that is going on today, there is so much uncertainty. A marked lack of clarity. As business owners, what are some of the things we should be thinking about right now? Don’t let the past, and your attachment to it, stop you from casting a new vision that will bring you into the future.To help you get clarity, we sat down with past guest Keith Cunningham. He is one of the most important business voices of our time because he challenges us to look at our businesses and identify what opportunities we have today that we didn’t have in the past — and that’s just what so many people need at this moment.Many of us are facing the challenge of having our goals become irrelevant or unattainable in an instant.

Welcome to 2020 2.0: The new version of your year you weren’t expecting.So many people out there are throwing in the towel on this year and calling it a wash. We know you’re different — or at least, you want to be — that you ignore the setbacks and keep going in the face of uncertainty.

The answer is surprisingly simple — The world doesn’t need a new way to set goals, they need to find a way to have a relationship with them.

If you could only choose one of the needs of your business to meet, which would you choose?Humans have a hierarchy of needs. It starts with psychological needs like water, food, and air. We have a need for safety — personal security, access to resources. We have a need for belonging, love, esteem, and at the very top, self-actualization. And just like humans have a hierarchy of needs, so too do our businesses. As humans, we’re instinctually wired to go for these things, and in the right order, but our businesses are not.Mike Michalowicz, author of the best-selling book ""Profit First" and the upcoming book “Fix This Next,” talks about how you can adapt your business to focus on the things that matter most, and in the order that makes the most sense.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.In this episode, you will learn...[04:35] What inspired Mike to write “Fix This Next”[08:54] The 5 levels of business needs[12:58] The recession response pattern[22:31] The mindset that you need to adopt[32:29] Our obligation to sell in this market[36:05] How to figure out what to fix next[37:48] Focusing on profit first[42:43] How to implement the “Fix This Next” model effectively[50:48] The 10-10-10 Method[58:42] Block controlLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodeLearn more: mikemotorbike.comRead: "Profit First"Read: “Fix This Next”Twitter: @MikeMichalowiczFacebook: MikeMichalowiczFanPageInstagram: @mikemichalowiczDo you keep writing the same thing over and over in your emails?We’re constantly sending the same email addresses, phone numbers, and replies to our coworkers and clients —&nbsp;and over time, the busy work really starts to add up.

The path to getting everything you want starts with getting one thing at a time.But there are so many things that we want in our lives, and when we view all the things that we need to do, it can be overwhelming. However, when we start living The ONE Thing, we learn to view that overwhelming list of things to do as dominos, line them up, and knock the first one over. The secret to living The ONE Thing is to think big, go small, and trust that the dominos will fall.Matt Plumer has an amazing story that will show you how simple it can be. At one point in his life, he found himself weighing 300 pounds with a drinking problem, a gambling problem, a smoking problem, and a marriage was on the brink of collapse.

Why did you get into business in the first place?Most of us start businesses or aspire to start businesses because we want financial freedom and flexibility. And yet, the stats show that the majority of small business owners don’t have those things. That’s because there is ONE Thing that they don’t do — but if they started doing this ONE thing immediately, it would guarantee profitability for the rest of their life.Mike Michalowicz, the best-selling author of Profit First and the upcoming book Fix This Next, is going to walk you through a very simple plan. Pay attention to the lead domino because it is so small it is going to feel like cheating, but when you knock it over you’ll be well on your way to living a life of profitability.At the end of April, we will be holding a live webinar featuring Mike where we talk about his new book, Fix This Next. The main thesis behind the book is that most business owners don’t know what their biggest challenge actually is and it provides a compass to pinpoint what your business needs to work on.

If you knew what Your ONE Thing was, wouldn’t it make sense to make it a habit?Forming habits is more than just behavior change — It’s about getting clarity on the activities required to become the person you are striving to be. It’s about the daily choices that define your future self. It’s about leaning into habits as a system for small, daily improvements that, with time, add up to extraordinary results.Today, we’re going to hear from someone who knows a thing or two about habit formation. He’s lived it firsthand while also digging into research that is the foundation of the 66-day challenge. We talk about the reasoning behind the 66 days, how changing one habit can lead to a halo effect, and how you can find Your ONE Thing that, by doing it, makes everything else easier or irrelevant.We don’t need to overthink this. Sometimes we get paralyzed by trying to choose the right one thing and all we actually need to do is point ourselves in the direction of our goals and take the first small step. For you, that might be to join our community and jump in during this time where we are forming new habits together and gain the accountability and sense of belonging that you need to get through this next season.

How can we build an even stronger sense of community around The ONE Thing? With everything that is going on in the world with the coronavirus, many of the things that we thought were clear now seem a little fuzzy and our priorities may be shifting.We are just like you. We are dealing with what you are right now. Our office is shut down, and when we look at our business, the direction we were going, and the things that were priorities, we are legitimately questioning what’s important.This episode is all about what you can do when you don’t know what to do. And one thing that we can do right now is to recognize that we are in this together. Every one of us has been derailed, and our priorities have completely changed. How do we begin to take back control of our time so we can have clarity about how we want to invest it? That’s what we’re going to walk you through.We are kicking off another 66-day challenge on March 30th, and we need this now more than ever.

I want you to imagine an iceberg. If you’re like most people, you probably imagine this big piece of ice coming out of the sea, but that’s just the tip. What we know is that the tip is just the minority or the iceberg — the majority lies beneath the surface.What most people focus on in their life is productivity: The actions they take and the results that they get. And when we’re not getting the results that we desire, we tend to ask ourselves, “How do I change my activities?” But we can’t truly be productive if we don’t understand what our priorities are, so this leads to a vicious cycle of unproductivity and frustration.Today, we share the incredible story of how one mom got clear on her purpose and started to line up what she did with why she did it. Tricia Brouwers is an executive with a mortgage company and a practice leader of The ONE Thing. She is also the mother of a very impressive young man who is living with autism. You are going to hear about their journey of going from a world of life that was so complex and pruning the unnecessary things back so that they could focus on what truly matters most.In less than 2 weeks, we will be kicking off a brand-new 66-day challenge inside of our Living Your ONE Thing community. Having an environment that supports your goal is incredibly important. The environment can be your physical space and it can also be the people who surround. Having people who think a certain way — and push you in a certain way — is absolutely vital to shattering your ceiling of achievement and achieving extraordinary results.

Have you ever found yourself wondering how you can get others to start living The ONE Thing? Whether it would be possible for your company to start reflecting this in their culture?So many people have reached out and say that they love The ONE Thing, but that they could never get their boss on board, that their company would never get behind it.Your company’s culture starts with you and our guest today is an example of that. Ed Nottingham is inside human resources at a Fortune 100, he has zero direct reports, and he loved the ideas of The ONE Thing and wanted to start living it as an individual. He never thought this would work inside his company, but it’s become a major initiative there. We’re going to walk through the steps of what this looked like so that you — as an individual — can begin to empower others to live The ONE Thing.In this episode, we continuously point to two models we use: The GPS and the 411.

How is it that, when we all have the same amount of time, some of us achieve extraordinary things while others are simply ordinary?Everybody knows how to set goals, but what we need to figure out is how to have a relationship with them. How do you stay in touch with the things that you said are important? It’s tough to do, but there’s a simple practice that will help you stay in contact with the things that are important.We’ve previously talked about how to stop spending your time and start investing it. This happens when you create a model for your time, and the best model you can create for your time is time blocking.

Have you ever felt just... overwhelmed? Like there was just so much on your plate that you genuinely couldn’t see how you could get it all done?It’s in these moments when our systems — our models — have failed. At any time we are hitting the ceiling of our achievement, we are missing something. We’re either missing a person in the form of a mentor, coach, or new hire, or we’re missing a model or system.Most people, without realizing it, spend their time instead of investing it. They don’t have an expectation for a return on investment from what’s on their calendar or planner. But there is a better way, a better model you can use to get more done and avoid overwhelm. So, in this episode, we’re going to teach you how to create a relationship with your goals that invests your time, allowing you to more easily achieve extraordinary results.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.In this episode, you will learn...[05:58] Moving from E to P[10:18] 3 things we suggest for time blocking[17:12] Creating a model for your timeLinks &amp; Tools From This EpisodePurchase The ONE Thing Planner at the1thing.com/plannerLearn more about Living Your ONE Thing at the1thing.com/habitsDownload your 66-day calendarDo you keep writing the same thing over and over in your emails?We’re constantly sending the same email addresses, phone numbers, and replies to our coworkers and clients —&nbsp;and over time, the busy work really starts to add up.

Are you the goal setter in your relationship?Over the past few years, we’ve noticed a common challenge at our Couples Goal Setting Retreats: in most relationships, one person is a goal setter and the other is not, one person is open to trying anything and the other is a skeptic.There’s nothing wrong with healthy skepticism, but it’s also important to examine how your natural state can influence your ability — and your partner’s ability — to grow. So, with this natural divide in almost every relationship, how can a couple grow together? Dave Hollis, author of the upcoming Get Out of Your Own Way: A Skeptic's Guide to Growth and Fulfillment and co-host of RISE Together, shares what happened when his partner (past guest Rachel Hollis) started her personal growth journey. While she gained personal momentum, he felt unfulfilled and overcome with fear — and until he confronted the fact that who he was getting further and further away from who he wanted to be, he was stuck. Listen to learn how Dave got out of his own way, and how you can too.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series.

If you want to change your life, you have to get honest with yourself.What’s working? What isn’t working? Who’s bringing you forward and who’s bringing you back? Candid self-reflection can reveal things you wish weren’t there, but knowing what you’re dealing with makes big change possible.Our guest, Grace Vroom, knew something had to give; there were countless areas of her life that she wanted to improve, but it was only after getting honest about her addiction to alcohol that she started to make any progress. Sobriety felt like such a daunting must-do on Grace’s self-improvement to-do list that she didn’t know how to start and she didn’t think she could sustain it.

What does it look like to see The ONE Thing become part of the culture of an organization?The answer is different depending on what your organization looks like, but there’s one place where it always makes sense — sales! When salespeople are clear on their priorities, form habits around the activities that truly drive results, get clear on what they’re saying yes to, and learn how to say no to all of their distractions, it drives the overall revenue of the business and makes everything else easier or unnecessary.&nbsp;But what does it really look like to live The ONE Thing as a salesperson? To answer that question, we sit down with Jonathan Farber, who was able to use the principles of The ONE Thing to create models and systems that have had a transformative effect on his time and his organization’s revenue.If you want to put some of Jonathan’s lessons into action, check out our free Start Using Your 411 training course. And if you’re looking for some more robust training, you will want to try the Get Results With Your 411 foundational course, which will also show you how to introduce the 411 to your team.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.In this episode, you will learn...-[6:00] What Jonathan’s day-to-day looked like before and after implementing The ONE Thing-[23:35] How you can convert your results into activities-[31:00] How you can introduce The ONE Thing to your team.Links &amp; Tools From This Episode-Start Using Your 411-Join the Living Your ONE Thing Community before Dec 31, 2019, to join over 1,000 like-minded people on an exclusive member's only 66-Day Challenge®.&nbsp;Are your priorities in your inbox?We think you know the answer to that question — NO!

What is the purpose of a goal?Most of us are taught that the purpose of a goal is to achieve a certain result. But Gary Keller says that the purpose of a goal is to be appropriate in the moment; a guiding light that will give you clarity on whether the actions you’re taking today are appropriate for the goals you want to achieve in the long run.That clarity is part of what makes a leader someone who you will want to follow, and every one of us is a leader, whether you have someone who reports to you or not. Because all leadership begins with self-leadership. So, how do you become the type of leader that you would follow? To help you answer that question, we’re sharing this conversation with Scott Miller, the Executive Vice President of Thought Leadership at FranklinCovey and the best-selling author of two books: Management Mess To Leadership Success and Everyone Deserves a Great Manager.We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series.

Growing up, we all hear that it’s better to give than receive — and this is especially true when it comes to business relationships&nbsp;— but do your goals reflect that?Because we all know that, if you want to build a great business and a great career, it all comes down to the quality of our relationships. But when it comes to setting goals, most of us aren’t intentionally designed to ensure we build deep and meaningful relationships within our business or with the people we serve.But that also means, for most of us, there is a huge opportunity to grow our businesses! Because there are a number of simple things you can do, starting immediately, that will truly transform the depth of the relationships that you have — if you take consistent action over the next year.

Do you usually start your year with a financial goal?Most people do, whether that’s saving more money, getting on a budget, or increasing their net worth. Whatever it is, though, you have to do certain things in order to be successful.In this episode, Anthony ONeal shares the story of how he did everything he was told to do to pursue the American Dream —&nbsp;working hard in school to get into a good college so that he could get a good job —&nbsp;but then life happened. He got kicked out of school and ended up homeless, wondering if he was better off dead or alive.

Who is supporting you in achieving your goals?A lot of us are struggling with this silently, but few of us are willing to stand up and ask for help. We hear about our friends’ successes and we see them on social media, and it creates this unrealistic expectation of what the journey forward looks like.In this episode, we’re talking to two people who were willing to raise their hands and ask for help. Kristina Modares and Eric Mann are in a relationship, but they’re also both starting companies. So they got busy, their personal and business lives got chaotic, and they were experiencing some very real stress over the past year. But by coming together and leveraging the tools of The ONE Thing — and each other — they’re preparing to remain connected and grow together in 2020, regardless of what life throws their way.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/podcast.In this episode, you will learn...[3:30] What it looks like when you start engaging your individual goals as a team, even when you don’t all identify as goal setters[9:30] ONE thing you can do to set yourself up for success in a goal-setting retreat[20:40]What you can accomplish after just one year of goal setting as a coupleLinks &amp; Tools From This Episode-We’ll help you facilitate a retreat with The ONE Thing Goal Setting Master Course-Download the FREE Kick Ass Guide® to Your Couples Goal Setting Retreat&nbsp;-Check out LeverCraft Coffee: www.levercraft.com&nbsp;Do you need a surprise to give one of the men in your life?Geoff’s wife had been encouraging him to upgrade his wardrobe for months now, and he did it at MacWeldon.com.

Do you think of goal setting as something you do alone?Most of us, if we were taught how to set goals at all, were just taught tactics like using a calendar or planner. And as a result, most of us have been trying to succeed by ourselves for years. But we work in teams, we live with families, and we can all accomplish more if we acknowledge that no one succeeds alone.So, in this episode, we want to share a little bit more about our process for preparing for the Couples Goal Setting Retreating, the best practices that we’ve developed within our organization, and what’s worked for us.This is your last chance to sign up for the Couples Goal-Setting Retreat!

As you’ve gone down your path towards living The ONE Thing, have you ever found yourself struggling to identify where to start?A lot of us experience this challenge.

Have you ever worked hard day in and day out, week after week, only to find yourself wondering why you’re even doing what you’re doing?Sometimes we are so focused on climbing the ladder that we don’t notice it’s leaning against the wrong wall — and this is because there are unintended consequences to setting your goals by looking forward.When you set goals looking forward, you miss the most important part of goal setting: where you’re going and why you’re going. If you don’t have that purpose and priority before you set your goals and start working away at them, you can’t be productive. So, in this episode, Clay Clark, Founder of ThriveTime Show and co-host of Business School Without the BS, is going to share when he realized he was living a life by default and how he started living a life by design.If you want this same experience facilitated for you, consider joining us at our Goal-Setting Retreat.In this episode, you will learn...[9:30] How you can start reclaiming your calendar and your time[19:00] The ONE thing that will make saying no easier or unnecessary[26:00] What Clay wishes he had done earlier (and what you can start doing now)Links &amp; Tools From This EpisodeLearn more at thrivetimeshow.comListen: Business School Without the BSAre you looking for your dream home?When your family is looking for a home, it can feel like everything you want is just a dream.

No one succeeds alone — yet, most people try to.One of the biggest mistakes we see people making is that they set goals by themselves, and then they struggle throughout the year because the people who are in their life — the people who have to buy into their goals if they want to accomplish them —&nbsp;aren’t on the same page.That’s why we created The ONE Thing Couple’s Goal-Setting Retreat, modeling an exercise that Jay and Wendy Papasan have been doing for the past decade. The point isn’t to negotiate for whose goals are right, but for each person to understand what the other person’s goals are and how they can support the other person in achieving those goals. In this episode, we’re going to look at what happens when a couple, for the first time, sets their goals together. The results are pretty amazing, but here’s the best part: you can do it too.If you want to put the ideas discussed in this episode into action, consider joining us at our Goal-Setting Retreat.

When you set your goals, are you doing it by yourself or with your significant other?When we’re not aligned with the people who are most important to us, the people who have a significant stake in our lives, we’re eliminating one of the most powerful support systems we have — and putting obstacles in the path of our goals. So how can we get them on board with the goal-setting process, even if they’re not goal setters themselves?In this episode, we’re going to look at what one couple did in this exact situation, Kaelyn Loes and Brent Wallace. One of them was your prototypical goal setter — they read the book, listened to the podcast, used productivity apps — while the other felt that the goal-setting process restricted them at times. But today, they go on this journey together, and in this episode you’ll learn about the tools and conversations that helped them come into alignment.If you want to put the ideas discussed in this episode into action, consider joining us at our Goal-Setting Retreat.

What does it mean to have accountability in your life?Because there are different levels of accountability. We can hold ourselves accountable by using tools like a 411, 66-Day Challenge, or The ONE Thing Planner. We can bring accountability into our world by recruiting an accountability partner. Then, when we want the highest level of accountability possible, we have to look to an expert – to a coach.A lot of people ask us what it means to have a coach, how to know if it’s the right fit, and how to get the most out of that relationship. So, today, we sit down to learn the answers to those questions from Charlotte Savoy, who both embodies accountability in her businesses and coaches other people on The ONE Thing through MAPS Business Coaching.If you think this sounds like a good fit for you, you can learn more about our Get a ONE Thing Coach, Become a ONE Thing Coach, or Living Your ONE Thing Community.In this episode, you will learn...[2:30] What is a coach?[5:55] How do you know when it’s time to bring a coach into your world?[13:25] The definition of accountability and what it looks like in a coaching partnership.[23:40] How do you know if a coach is the right coach for you?[32:00] How to own the relationship with your coach and ensure you get maximum value from it.[49:25] The five coaching models&nbsp;[59:35] What you should expect from a coach.Links &amp; Tools From This EpisodeInstagram: instagram.com/charlottesavoy Get a ONE Thing Coach Become a ONE Thing CoachJoin the Living Your ONE Thing CommunityDo you run a small business?&nbsp;Small business owners wear a lot of hats.

Are your priorities today aligned with your five-year goals?If we aren’t taking steps towards our someday goals every single day, we’re probably never going to get there – at least not any time soon. But if we have the right mindset and structures in place, not only can we achieve our someday goals, we can achieve them even faster than we think is possible.Last week, Jay Papasan and Geoff Woods discussed the how billionaires set goals using a process called Goal Setting to the Now. Today, we’re going to share the tools and processes that billionaires use to ensure they stay on track towards their someday goals, every day.In this episode, you will learn... [5:00] How to make progress towards big goals, as a team, using a GPS[13:00] The mistake that most people make when they start time blocking[27:15] How you can use leverage to ensure that you’re always acting in order of priority[42:30] What you can do to help others with their time management and goal settingThe ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:We want you to think big, then go small.Think big about your someday goals.

Are you living a life by default or are you living a life by design?Most of us are living a life by default. We wake up, take action, experience some successes, experience some failures, then repeat – but we get what we get by default. When billionaires set goals, however, they cast a vision into the future, then look backwards and set goals to the now. That’s how we live a life by design.In this episode, we’re sharing the first half of Jay Papasan and Geoff Woods’s keynote presentation at the Keller Williams Family Reunion Convention 2019. This part is about the high-level principles of goal setting like a billionaire, and in the second part, we will dive into the tools billionaires use for goal setting.In this episode, you will learn... [3:40] How you can start goal setting to the now[11:20] What you can learn from Gary Keller about getting clarity on your goals[16:00] Where in your life are you currently chasing distractions and saying no to what is truly the priority?The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:If you want to achieve extraordinary results, you can’t set goals looking forward. You have to have a vision for where you want to end up so that you can look back and identify the path that will get you there.When you do that, you will know how to separate a true priority from a distraction.Links &amp; Tools From This Episode To help you start this process, go download the FREE Kick Ass Guide® to Goal Setting.If you want more support, join the Living Your ONE Thing CommunityIf you want to have your own goal setting retreat, check out The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Master CourseAWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

What happens when your actions aren’t aligned with your goals?When we are focusing on our ONE thing, it’s not like the rest of the world stops. The emails don’t stop piling up, meeting requests don’t cease to exist, and customer fires don’t magically disappear. The deeper we go into our one thing, the more this pressure builds – and we’re often so afraid of this chaos that we use time set aside for our ONE thing to clear off some of that 80% work. It feels productive for a moment, but in reality, we’re acting out of alignment with our goals.So what happens when real stress and real anxiety starts to build up, and how do you deal with it without taking a detour off of the road to being extraordinary? To help us answer those questions, we are joined once again by Craig Ballantyne, author of the Wall-Street Journal Bestseller Unstoppable and The Perfect Day Formula.In this episode, you will learn...[4:00] How we suffer from the paradox of freedom[7:00] What catalyzes our stress and anxiety[18:45] How you can get clarity on what’s most important[24:00] How to take a more proactive approach to your lifeThe ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:Out of everything that you heard in this episode, what is the ONE thing that really stood out to you?

Have you ever scheduled time for your most important work?Chances are, all of us has done this at least once. But do you regularly time block and then protect that time like the air you breathe, defending it against every distraction that comes up? For most of us, the answer is no – but why is that?In this episode, we suggest that this is because we’re not great at keeping the promises we make to ourselves or to others – and we believe that if you can get a little more intentional about the promises you make when you’re planning your time, and the commitments you make to others, then everything else will become easier or unnecessary. Our guest, Alex Sheen, has taken this idea of a promise and turned it into a movement and a book called Because I Said I Would, which is helping people all over the world make promises that stick.We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series. Every month, we feature an incredible author so that you can learn directly from them and ask questions. If you want to sign up for our next FREE monthly webinar, head over to the1thing.com/webinars.In this episode, you will learn...[7:30] How the “market conditions” of promises have changed with technology[12:30] The anatomy of a promise[18:00] How you can gracefully say no –&nbsp;and still help people move towards their goals[28:30] How you can leverage time blocking to prioritize what you do and don’t promise to doThe ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:What’s the ONE thing that you’re not doing that would make saying no easier or unnecessary?Maybe you need to get clear on why you’re saying yes to what you’re saying yes to and no to what you’re saying no to. If you don’t have clarity on your bigger purpose, your bigger Why, it can be difficult to stick to your guns and say no when it matters.Or maybe you need a go-to no sentence like Alex’s: “It would be easy for me to say yes right now, but I respect you too much to keep a promise I can’t keep.”How much time do you think you’ll need to block to come up with that sentence? And how many times do you think you’ll have to practice it, even just one time a day, before it just sounds natural?

What does football have to do with the 411?Well back in 1960, the Packers made it to the NFL Championship, had a lead the whole game, and then lost to the Eagles in a stunning display in the fourth quarter. On the first day of training camp the following year, coach Vince Lombardi walked into the locker room, held up a football, and said, “This is a football.”Why did Lombardi start with something so fundamental? He realized that if they could truly understand the surprising power of mastering the fundamentals, that that ONE thing could make everything else easier or unnecessary – and in 1961, the Packers went on to win the championship. So in this episode, we’re going to help you master the most fundamental tool in The ONE Thing toolbox: the 411.In this episode, you will learn...[6:30] How to get clarity on what matters most thing is using the 411.[12:00] How to differentiate a priority from a distraction by goal setting to the now.[19:00] Why sometimes you will be succeeding so slowly that you feel like you’re failing.The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:Getting what you want out of life is not about doing more – it’s about doing more of what matters most.Everything does not matter equally, and there are a handful of things that you can do, at any moment, that will create the majority of your results.

How do you show up as a better leader, and how do you do it in a world that’s constantly distracting us?Technology has changed our lives in profoundly positive ways, but it’s also created more distractions than ever before – and if you’re like most people, you probably feel more disconnected than ever before.So we sat down with the author of Back to Human: How Great Leaders Create Connection in the Age of Isolation, Dan Schawbel, to discuss how we can do a better job at facilitating connections in the workplace, in spite of the technology that’s constantly surrounding us.We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series.

Do you have a New Year’s Resolution about your health, organization, or money?There’s a good chance you do because, statistically, these are the three most common goals people set every year. But as we mentioned in the last episode, only eight percent of people actually succeed in implementing their resolutions. One of the big challenges here is that you can’t succeed alone, especially if you have a significant other, but so many of us try to.Today, we are sharing the case study of a couple who ran up against that challenge year after year – which, ultimately, meant they were fighting about money year after year – until they started having an annual couple’s goal-setting retreat 10 years ago. Now, Jenn and JP Lewis never fight about money, and in this episode, we’re going to break down how they did it and the ONE thing you can do today that will make everything else easier or unnecessary when it comes to setting your annual goals.In this episode, you will learn... [4:45] Jenn’s advice for anyone who is hesitant to participate in a couple’s goal-setting retreat[12:00] What it looks like to reallocate funds and time to what matters most, as a team.[18:00] Why you need emotional buy-in during the goal-setting process.

Have you started implementing the principles of The ONE Thing in your life?It’s surprisingly simple... but it’s not easy. We’ve spoken with thousands of you who have started living The ONE Thing, and once you start going down that path, you realize something pretty quickly: there’s no way to succeed alone.Today, we’re sharing Wyatt Graves’ journey from discovering to implementing the principles of The ONE Thing – to empowering a community to live these principles, too.In this episode, you will learn...

And what do you think will be possible if the people in your world start going down that road, too?When we asked Wyatt why he continues down this road to mastery, he said it’s because he knows that all leadership begins with self-leadership; it’s difficult to influence the people you care about if you’re not, first and foremost, walking the talk.So who in your world do you really care about and who need to hear this message? Who do you want to experience what you’re experiencing by implementing the principles of The ONE Thing?Send them this episode, send them to the1thing.com, or send an email introducing them to Geoff [at] the1thing.com and he will personally respond.

Think back to five years ago. What did you desperately want in your life? And have you achieved those goals yet?Gary Keller says that we can be anywhere we want in the next five years, but many of us are pretty much in the same place we were five years ago. Why is that? Because extraordinary results are only possible when you do the right things: when you have clarity about the direction that you’re going, clarity on your priorities, your calendar matches those priorities, and you act in order of priority.With the Holidays and New Year around the corner, this is the time of year when many of us are again dreaming about the future – and this time around, we want to help you establish a relationship with your goals so that you can knock down those big dominos!Mentioned in this episode:BambeeGo to Bambee.com RIGHT NOW and type in The ONE Thing under PODCAST when you sign up - it’ll really help the show.

Do you want to build an empire?Everything that’s required to achieve extraordinary results and, ultimately, build an empire is surprisingly simple – but that doesn’t mean everyone is doing those things. So in this episode, we discuss some of the simple little things that most entrepreneurs are not doing, preventing them from achieving the extraordinary growth they desire.This episode was originally recorded for an episode of Ryan Moran’s The One Percent, but we knew that some of you needed to hear this conversation as well. You can hear more from both Ryan Moran and Geoff Woods at CapCon 2019 (Jan 21-23 in Dallas), where Geoff will be a guest speaker.--Want to look smart for a great price?Back when Gary Keller and Jay Papasan started writing The ONE Thing, they asked, “What do we stand for?” They decided that, whatever they created, the bar for quality would be exceptionally high and whoever invested in it would receive incredible value. We still have that standard in our business, and we are always looking for other companies doing the same thing. In our search, we came across Beckett Simonon, a direct-to-consumer brand changing the way premium men’s shoes, bags, and belts are offered.If you want hand-crafted, quality shoes and accessories made with integrity, use the code TOT for 20% off the already great prices at beckettshoes.com.Mentioned in this episode:BambeeGo to Bambee.com RIGHT NOW and type in The ONE Thing under PODCAST when you sign up - it’ll really help the show.

Are you spending too much time working in pursuit of freedom?Gary Keller says you can be anywhere you want in the next five years... and if this is true, it really comes down to how you manage your time. We can't work more hours in the day and have a more flexible lifestyle, so something else has to change.In this episode, we’re sharing one of our most impactful episodes and one of our most-requested guests, Gene Rivers. After The ONE Thing Goal-Setting retreat, we realized we needed to share this story with you all again to remind you what’s possible when you truly invest your time&nbsp;(as opposed to spending it on emails and meetings and random tasks). Gene and his wife run nine successful businesses while still finding time to vacation four months out of the year and devote time to their family every day. He will teach you how you can get anything you want when you're intentional with your time and willing to focus on the most important work.Mentioned in this episode:BambeeGo to Bambee.com RIGHT NOW and type in The ONE Thing under PODCAST when you sign up - it’ll really help the show.

Are you in relationships with the right people, and are you being intentional about investing in the relationships that matter most?We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again&nbsp;– no one succeeds alone. We sat down with the best-selling author of Friend of a Friend, David Burkus, to learn why you don’t really need to be networking to meet new people, how most of the relationships and people you need to access can be gained by tapping in the people you’re already in a relationship with, and the key habits you can form to completely transform the quality of those relationships.--Want to look smart for a great price?Back when Gary Keller and Jay Papasan started writing The ONE Thing, they asked, “What do we stand for?” They decided that, whatever they created, the bar for quality would be exceptionally high and whoever invested in it would receive incredible value.

Do you want to live the principles of The ONE Thing not only in your personal life, but in your organization too?Sometimes we doubt whether we’ll get buy-in from leadership, or whether these principles can truly become part of the bigger corporate culture. It’s something a lot of us wrestle with throughout our careers.In this episode, we share a case study of what it looks like to bring the principles of The ONE Thing into a large organization. L’Occitane is a natural beauty brand from the South of France that was started in 1976, focusing on selling skin care, body care, and fragrances. Fast forward to today and they’re in more than 90 countries and on a mission to empower women around the globe. We’re joined by Shannon Greer, L’Occitane’s Vice President of Retail in North America.Are you hiring?Gary Keller once said, “If you want to live an extraordinary life, it requires that you master something – and it only has to be ONE thing.” Geoff chose to master recruiting great people, so we know that finding the right people can be a huge challenge. That’s why we’re excited to introduce you to ZipRecruiter, a platform that finds the right job candidates for you. In fact, 80% of employers who post a job get a qualified candidate in just one day.And ZipRecruiter is inviting listeners of The ONE Thing to try for FREE – all you have to do is go to ziprecruiter.com/produktive.Mentioned in this episode:BambeeGo to Bambee.com RIGHT NOW and type in The ONE Thing under PODCAST when you sign up - it’ll really help the show.

Do you ever feel like you’re putting in a lot of hard work to achieve extraordinary results in your business or in you role, day in and day out, but you just aren’t going anywhere?We all have the same 24 hours in a day, yet some people get different results – and it all comes down to how you manage your time. If you’re acting entrepreneurially, constantly relying on your natural ability, taking action, making mistakes, and tweaking things, you’re going to run up against a ceiling of achievement. But you have an opportunity to get purposeful – to identify a model and system for achieving extraordinary results.To help us leverage that opportunity, we’re talking to someone who is responsible for five multi-million dollar business success stories in his home country of Australia, all before the age of 30. His humble beginnings, the adversities that he faced, and his rise to success are inspirational stories of how anyone, with the right motivation and the right strategies, can achieve anything they set their mind to – including rapid business growth. Our guest is the bestselling author of The Introvert's Edge, Matthew Pollard.In this episode, you will learn... [3:40] The ONE thing that’s missing for so many of us.[7:30] The 3-step model that will help you move from E to P when it comes to scaling your business.[10:10] What this 3-step model looks like in practiceThe ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:Have you ever sat down and and really asked yourself, “what’s the value that I deliver?”Have you ever actually looked out at the market to see if there is an unmet need, as opposed to just doing the work that falls into your lap? Have you ever considered what a more scalable sales system for your business might look like?We love that you take the time to invest in your education by listening to this podcast, and we also know that the greatest results come when you back it with action.So how much time can you block off to identify your purpose or ask yourself these questions?

At the end of the day, do you feel fulfilled and content?Imagine working hard to scale your business and having the first year where you net a million dollars. The year after, again, you net a million dollars. And then you realize something's wrong.The person you're going to meet today is a perfect example of this. He worked so hard to build a business that could scale, that could create abundance for his people and for himself personally. He did, in fact, net a million dollars two years in a row – then he realized that he was cheating himself out of what it actually means to live a life. We're going to go on a journey to see how he began to apply the 80/20 principle, focusing on his 20% for a maximum of just two hours a day, and then brought people into his world to take his 80% so they could all live a bigger, more fulfilled life.If you are someone who has the capacity to bring leverage into your world, then you will want to pay close attention to what Chris Suarez has to say in this episode.In this episode, you will learn...[22:17] What it means to live experientially[24:33] What you can do if it feels like you're cheating yourself out of what it means to actually live a life[36:45] The habits you can acquire that will make being a great coach, being a great leader, and being a talent magnet easier or unnecessary[48:50] The ingredients of contentment &amp; an exercise you can do to find your opportunityThe ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:Are you spending your time or are you investing your time?&nbsp;So many of us go through our day unconsciously just spending our time and there is no return on the investment. We work hard, we're busy, and we wonder if we are even getting anything done. As a result, many of us are lacking fulfillment and, certainly, many of us are lacking contentment.If you want to chance this cycle, whip out a sheet of paper and start by writing down everything you do in the day, from the moment you wake up to when you go to sleep, to get an honest snapshot of where your time is going.&nbsp;Then, you can use the equations Chris shared to determine whether you are investing your time or passively spending it:(Activity x Time) / Choice = Money&nbsp;(Money + People) / Opportunity = Time&nbsp;Time + Money = Experience(Time x Money) / Experience = Contentment&nbsp;You take activity times your time, or time on task over time, divided by choice, meaning you're being strategic about where that activity and time is being invested. That equals the money. And you take money plus people, leveraged over opportunity, meaning focusing on the right opportunity. That gives you time. Then you take time plus money and that gives you experiences. Then time times money over experience is what gives you the contentment.Finally, ask yourself these questions:Are you investing your time on the right activities? Could you be doing better? Where could you be doing a better job of investing in people? And where could you be having the people that are already in your world focusing on even better opportunities? Where could you be investing your time and money in experiences that matter? And how can you design your time and money around experiences rather than hoping the experiences just show up?Links &amp; Tools From This EpisodeConnect with Chris: pdxpropertygroup.com/team/chris-suarez/Learn more about The ONE Thing Couples Goal-Setting Retreat: www.the1thing.com/eventInterested in getting a coach who is certified in the principles of The One Thing?

Consider the things that you want to accomplish in your life... is it possible for you to achieve those things alone?Achieving all of our goals requires the support of our significant others, our business partners, our bosses, and our friends. But how many of us actually have a process for setting goals with these people who have a stake in our success? Sadly, very few of us do. But this is something we can change!Over a decade ago, The ONE Thing co-author Jay Papasan and his wife Wendy Papasan set aside a night for ONE purpose: casting a vision for what they wanted their lives to look like together so that they would be on the same page – and the idea of a couples goal-setting retreat was born! In this episode, we’re sharing a live webinar featuring Jay and Wendy, in which they talk about what their retreats look like and what you need to know to prepare for your own goal-setting retreat.As you go through this episode, if you find yourself thinking, “I want to do this,” you have three options:Download the FREE Kick Ass Guide® to Your Couples Goal Setting Retreat: https://www.the1thing.com/resources/kick-ass-guide-to-your-couples-goal-setting-retreat/Join us in Austin for The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat: www.the1thing.com/eventCan't make it to Austin?

Do those people know what you’re really striving for over the next 12 months, or the next five years? And what would be possible if, every single day, you had them in your corner supporting you while you take the actions necessary for success?Don’t let this be just another piece of content that goes in one year and out the other – make a commitment to yourself to be the kind of person who takes action!If you want to bring a goal setting retreat into your life, you have three options:Download the FREE Kick Ass Guide® to Your Couples Goal Setting Retreat: https://www.the1thing.com/resources/kick-ass-guide-to-your-couples-goal-setting-retreat/Join us in Austin for The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat: www.the1thing.com/eventCan't make it to Austin?

What were the things you really wanted out of life five years ago... and do you have them today?For many of us, the answer is no. But why? Most of us don’t know the proper way to set our goals or create a plan that we CAN accomplish, and we don’t have the tools necessary to build a real relationship with our goals so that we can make consistent progress – and that’s why we created The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat.John Schumacher and Carol Stack are perennial goal setters, but they never did it together. Then, after going on their first couples goal setting retreat, they saw a transformation in their results.If you want those results in your relationship – whether that be with your significant other, business partner, team, boss, or friends – then you have three options:Download the Kick-Ass Guide® to Your Couples Goal Setting Retreat: https://www.the1thing.com/resources/kick-ass-guide-to-your-couples-goal-setting-retreat/Join us in Austin for The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat: www.the1thing.com/eventCan't make it to Austin?

No one succeeds alone, but most people try to – and it doesn’t have to be that way.Will you make a commitment to yourself and your future to identify the people in your life who have the greatest stake in your success, and then bring them in to set goals as a team?If you want to bring a goal setting retreat into your life, you have three options: Download the Kick-Ass Guide® to Your Couples Goal Setting Retreat: https://www.the1thing.com/resources/kick-ass-guide-to-your-couples-goal-setting-retreat/Join us in Austin for The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat: www.the1thing.com/eventCan't make it to Austin?

Are you multiplying or diminishing the people around you?After we released episode 145 with Liz Wiseman, author of New York Times bestseller Multipliers: How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter, we received a lot of feedback from all of you. We all know that no one succeeds alone – but working with and leading other people isn’t easy, and we’re not taught how to do it in school.So for this episode, we brought Liz Wiseman back, but with a twist: instead of us interviewing her, she’s going to turn the tables on Geoff Woods and help him identify where he’s diminishing as a leader. Whether you own a business, are a leader in an organization, or are an employee, this is a valuable episode because it will help you gain clarity on where you could be doing a better job of showing up and how you are influencing the people around you.In this episode, you will learn...

Why is it that the majority of businesses fail?We see this all the time with, whether it's our members or the people that we do trainings with at a corporate level. Everybody always has the best of intentions in their career. Yet, they don't realize the subtle simple mistakes that they are making. And if they had the right person on the frontline of their business with them, coaching them, and guiding them, they would be able to avoid making the mistakes that ultimately lead to burnout.For over a year, you have heard us talk about the possibility of introducing The ONE Thing Coaching, a one-on-one coaching program based on the principles of The ONE Thing. A lot of you sent us emails saying you’d love that opportunity, but we hadn't earned the right to bring this program to market because we were missing a person.We found that person, Abe Shreve, and we’re excited for you to meet him in this episode. Over the last five years, he has personally led over 9000 independent coaching calls. He has had conversations with business owners from across all industries. And he has a unique perspective on what mistakes you may be making that will lead to burnout and, ultimately, to the loss of your business.If you are interested in exploring what it looks like to have a coach who can be there and guide you based on the principles of The ONE Thing, go to The1Thing.com/training.

So what's the one thing you can do such that by doing it, everything else would be easier or unnecessary?Maybe you need to complete your GPS for the upcoming year. Maybe you need to go through and do a 411 with your team. Maybe you need to look at your hiring practices. Maybe you need to sit down with your team in front of a white board and really ask, "What is our culture in one single descriptive word? What does it come down to?"Whatever you choose, we hope that you are the type of person who actually takes action.And if you believe what Abe says, that a great place to start would be to get a coach, please go to The1Thing.com/training.

When you’re setting goals, do you ask yourself who in your life directly contributes to whether or not you achieve that goal?No one succeeds alone – but most people try to. One of the biggest mistakes we see people making is that they set goals by themselves, then they struggle throughout the year because the most important people in their life aren’t on the same page.Our guests Jake and Alyx Dreyfuss blocked off time for their first couples goal-setting retreat last year. In this episode, Jake and Alyx share the discussions they had, the changes that have occurred over the past year, and what they’re doing differently for this upcoming year.If you want to learn more about what it looks like to go on your own goal-setting retreat, go to the1thing.com/event and check out what we’re doing for The ONE Thing Couples Goal-Setting Retreat in Nov. 2018.In this episode, you will learn...

In this episode, you hear how challenging the process of setting goals together is... and you also hear how much it helps.Who is riding shotgun with you who you can sit down with and have the deep conversations, which you might have been avoiding up until now? It’s not about negotiating for whose goal is going to win. It’s about understanding what the other person wants and asking how you can help them get it.What would be possible in your life if you made a goal-setting retreat a yearly ritual?Whether you choose to do it yourself or join us in Austin in Nov. 2018, go to the1thing.com/event to learn more about what it takes.Links &amp; Tools From This Episode Connect with Jake: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter&nbsp;AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

Do you feel like you could be doing more... but there’s just not enough time?Whenever we feel like we’re running into a ceiling of achievement, when we feel like we just can’t quite do anymore, we’re just missing a person. As Gary Keller says, “No one succeeds alone.”That’s why we’re sharing this conversation with Brindley Tucker, a KW MAPS Coach and the founder of Your Realty Leverage. But today’s episode isn’t about succeeding in real estate – it’s about being the type of person who can recruit and retain amazing talent, in whatever you do, so that you can break through whatever ceiling of achievement you perceive to be in your life.And if you didn’t hear Brindley’s first episode, Ep 78 - How Mindset, Purpose, and Relationships Can Change Your Life in 5 Years or Less, we highly recommend listening to it as well. Her journey is truly incredible.In this episode, you will learn...

And if no one succeeds alone, then we must succeed together.One of the biggest obstacles is your environment – so who are the five people in your environment who most need to understand this collaborative language?

What if getting your priorities done was literally a matter of life and death?We know that living The ONE Thing isn’t easy. Surprisingly simple, yes – but certainly not easy. Whether you’re an employee, an entrepreneur, or a stay-at-home parent, there are always things that pop up and try to pull you away from your most important priorities. Most of us have the luxury of being able to accept that and try to do better tomorrow... but what if you didn’t have that opportunity?That’s the reality for our guest Steven Gendel, whose son was born prematurely and weighing under two pounds. Over the past 19 years of his life, he has had 50 neurosurgeries and there isn’t a day that goes by without a moment where he almost dies. So today we have a conversation about what it looks like to not only thrive in your career but quit your corporate job to build four businesses, while every single day knowing that one of the people who matter most to you may not actually make it through the day – a situation that forces you to get extreme clarity on your priorities.In this episode, you will learn...[6:05] How you can go from living to thriving, even in a dire situation[9:30] What you need to do so that your businesses can grow even if you have to spend six months in a hospital[31:50] Why you need to empower the people in your world (and how to do that)The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:One of the things that impress us most about Steven is that he always shows up with a smile on his face – there’s a peace about him, and you have to wonder if it’s because he wakes up every day with true clarity on what matters most.Based on what you heard today, what can you start doing differently? What are the things you’re doing today that you would stop doing, at the drop of a dime, if something happened to the people who matter most to you? Are any of your so-called priorities, in reality, just distractions?What’s the ONE thing that you can do that will make everything else easier or unnecessary?If you want some support in answering those questions, head over to the1thing.com/event to sign up for The ONE Thing Couples Goal Setting Retreat (Nov. 17-18, 2018 in&nbsp;Austin, TX).Links &amp; Tools From This Episode Connect with Steven: Twitter | FacebookAWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

What is the ONE thing to focus on for business growth?We believe that ONE thing is customer loyalty – so, as we scale our business, that means our ONE thing is engaging with people like you. So we’ve been asking ourselves, how do we form a deeper, more meaningful relationship with every single one of you so that, ultimately, you become a raving fan and get a level of mastery on the content so that you can turn around and empower the people in your world?While we were asking these questions, Jay walked over to his bookshelf and pulled out a book. It was Monster Loyalty: How Lady Gaga Turns Followers Into Fanatics by today’s guest Jackie Huba, and it’s transforming the way we look at our business. So today we’re going to show you how Lady Gaga was able to build this passionate fan base and what lessons you can take and apply in your businesses.In this episode, you will learn...[4:35] What is loyalty?[11:35] How do you identify your one percenters?[26:30] How can you can become part of the community around your business and give them something to talk about? The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:So, after listening to this episode, you've been armed with a foundation for growth. Now, are you willing to go on the journey to becoming a master of building customer loyalty?If so, what habits do you or your business have to acquire that would make engaging those one percenters easier or unnecessary? Is it getting clear and focusing on your one percenters? Leading with your values? Building a community of those one percenters? Or generating something to talk about? Look at those four points and contrast them or compare them to what you're focusing on in your business right now. Are you focusing on the ONE thing that matters most?When we look at our business, that lead domino, that if we continue to knock that down over time will lead to extraordinary results, is you.If you see there is an opportunity but you’re struggling to come up with ideas for how to capitalize on it, one thing you can do first is read through Jackie’s book, Monster Loyalty, and write down 10 ways that you can implement each chapter. When you do that, you end up with this mind bank of things that you can do that will make building customer loyalty easier or unnecessary. We did this and it’s been extremely helpful.And if you genuinely feel like you are one percenters for The ONE Thing, please e-mail [email protected] because we're always asking, what are we doing that's actually creating that type of engagement?

If you want to live an extraordinary life, you have to master something – but it only has to be ONE thing. &nbsp; For many of us, mastering the ability to communicate with other people, or connect with others, is the ONE thing that will make everything else easier or unnecessary. &nbsp; Today, we sit down with someone who has mastered the art of asking great questions: Susan Scott, the author of Fierce Conversations. This episode is so meaningful for us, and we think it will mean just as much for you because Susan models a Fierce Conversation live. &nbsp; If you put yourself in our shoes and answer each question honestly, you will experience how profound having Fierce Conversations can be, and what will be possible if you invite more conversations like these into your relationships. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Identify a relationship in your life that is not where you want it to be; a relationship that matters to you, and is hurting. &nbsp; If the conversation IS the relationship, what do your conversations have to look like moving forward so that you can feel better about where that relationship is? &nbsp; Remember, this talk doesn't have to be intense or negative – it can come from a place of love, and it can be delivered with candor and care. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [12:30] What the 4 goals of a Fierce Conversation are. [19:00] ONE thing that many business owners are doing that ruins their businesses (and their relationships). [25:15] the ONE thing you can do to make connecting on a deeper level easier. [36:30] What a Fierce Conversation sounds like.

Have you ever thought, “I just need more work-life balance?” Have you ever hustled so hard that life didn’t feel fulfilling because... well, you didn’t really have a life outside of your business? &nbsp; If we fast forward to the end of our lives, will any of us think to ourselves, “I wish I just spent five more hours in the office?” No! For most of us, the things we’ll reflect on are the moments that we shared with the people who matter most. &nbsp; If you’re struggling to strike a counterbalance between building a great career and having great relationships with the people who matter most, this episode is for you. We examine a case study of what it looks like to be really clear that family and relationships are your ONE thing, put them first, and still build a great business. &nbsp; &nbsp; In this episode, you will learn...

So are you going to wake up every day serving the people who matter most to you or sacrificing them for everyone else? &nbsp; When we pull it back like that, it seems really simple. But we’ve been taught to be so career-focused and so driven to achieve extraordinary results that it’s easy to lose sight of what matters most. &nbsp; So what is the ONE thing from this episode you can do that will make putting your family first, while also building a great business, easier or unnecessary? &nbsp; AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

Why is it that some people are able to achieve extraordinary results year after year, while others work so hard without getting the results they deserve? &nbsp; In this episode, we’re going to show you how ONE thing – purpose – can completely change your performance, the performance of your team, and provide everyone in your world with a greater sense of fulfillment and meaning. &nbsp; To teach us why purpose is the ONE thing for building great teams and how you can go about bringing it into your everyday life, we’re talking to Don Yaeger, a nationally acclaimed inspirational speaker, longtime Associate Editor of Sports Illustrated, and author of over 30 books (eleven of which have become New York Times best sellers). &nbsp; We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series.

What does it mean to be successful? &nbsp; Gary Keller once shared an interest answer to this question: “Success is nothing more than moving from failure to failure without giving up.” And the more people we talk to, the more examples we see of that being true. &nbsp; In this episode, we’re going to explore the value of failure – when paired with persistence – with Bruce Buffer, who you may know as UFC’s Voice of the Octagon. &nbsp; In this episode, you will learn...

Can you imagine if all of your dreams, inspirations, and the things you wanted out of life were stripped away from you in a moment? It makes you really consider what matters most. &nbsp; Our guest actually did die at the age of 20, after being hit head-on by a drunk driver at 70 MPH. After six days in a coma, he woke up only to be told he’d never walk again. Well, not only can this person walk – he’s run a 52-mile ultramarathon, built a successful business, and wrote an incredible bestselling book: The Miracle Morning. Then, after being diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia in 2016 and given a grim prognosis, he’s done the impossible again. &nbsp; Today you are going to discover the story of how Hal Elrod formed a powerful morning routine that set him up for success, how the idea of a Miracle Morning has impacted the lives of over 500,000 people, and how he maintains clarity on what matters most. &nbsp; &nbsp; In this episode, you will learn... [4:20] What The Miracle Morning is &amp; how can it help you achieve your goals? [9:10] The lead domino that led to Hal’s success. [11:15] How you can shift from a mindset of success to a mindset of fulfillment (and why it matters). [26:55] How to align your actions with your true priorities. [30:15] What The Miracle Equation is &amp; how it will help you achieve extraordinary results. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: If you’re listening to this show, that means you’re probably growth-minded and want more out of life, specifically as it pertains to your time. The challenge is how often are we furthering our education in something that is not our number one priority? &nbsp; I love the story Hal shares about how, once he got clarity that family was truly what mattered most, he went down a road to reading and furthering his education on how to be a better father or husband before he earned the right to develop his education on running a business. &nbsp; It’s so simple, but how many of us do it? Not easy – but simple. What’s the ONE simple action that you’re not taking today that, if you started taking it, would make everything else easier or unnecessary in your life? &nbsp; We hope you’ll share the ONE action you’re taking with us by clicking here to leave a review in iTunes or sharing it on social media using #theONEthing. &nbsp; Links &amp; Tools From This Episode Learn more at halelrod.com Connect with Hal: Facebook | Twitter Join The Miracle Morning Community on Facebook Listen: Achieve Your Goal with Hal Elrod Get your own copy of Hal’s Miracle Morning books Download The Way of Life app &nbsp; AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

Are you limiting the possibilities of anyone in your world? &nbsp; We believe that leadership is teaching people how to think so that they can get what they need when they need it – but too often, we limit those around us, especially when it comes to creativity. However, achieving extraordinary results, even if you’re not an artist or don’t consider yourself creative, requires a level of unfettered creativity. &nbsp; Todd Henry, host of The Accidental Creative, joins this episode to share how we can stop putting up these roadblocks and start allowing the people around us to do their most important – and most creative – work. &nbsp; &nbsp;In this episode, you will learn... [6:20] How you can support your people’s creativity by helping them protect their time. [10:00] How you can maintain trust with your team (or, more accurately, avoid losing trust). [21:20] What you can do to create challenges that stimulate creativity, for yourself and your team. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Look at your normal day, look at how you have been investing your time, and ask yourself: Am I currently setting myself up to get my most important work done and create my best work? &nbsp; Based on that, what’s the ONE thing you can do that will make creating extraordinary work easier or unnecessary? &nbsp; You might come up with a BIG answer. If that’s the case, keep asking yourself the clarifying question – what’s the ONE thing I can do that will make achieving that easier or unnecessary – until you’ve identified a single action, a two-inch domino, that you CAN knock down every day. &nbsp; Links &amp; Tools From This Episode Learn more at accidentalcreative.com Connect with Todd: ToddHenry.com | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter Listen to Geoff on The Accidental Creative: accidentalcreative.com/podcasts/ac/the-one-thing-with-geoff-woods Want to help us reinvent the planner?

Are you doing the same thing every day, working hard, without actually living your purpose? &nbsp; Sometimes it takes something catastrophic to compel us to do something different, or to take an action that we previously didn’t have the confidence to take. &nbsp; For Jeff Sanders, host of The 5 AM Miracle Podcast, it took being hospitalized for him to realize that most of the things on his calendar simply didn’t matter. Jeff completely changed the way he manages his time, and the experience prompted him write a book called The Free Time Formula. In this episode, Jeff shares how he schedules his time, how he chooses what to invest his time in, and what you can do to begin taking action today. &nbsp; &nbsp;In this episode you will learn... [4:40] How to look at your calendar in an entirely new way. [7:00] Why you don’t need to (and shouldn’t) fill every time block on your schedule with a task. [14:10] How you can optimize your time by utilizing your strengths. [18:00] How to begin auditing your time &amp; identifying the changes you need to make. [20:40] The ONE thing that makes everything easier or unnecessary, when it comes to acting in order of priority. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We urge you to take Jeff’s story as an opportunity to pause and reflect; if you continue to do what you have been doing, every day for five years, what will your life look like? Are you living the life you want to be living? &nbsp; If you want to make a change, first look at the seven circles: your spirituality, physical health, personal life, relationships, jobs, business, and finances. Now choose just one area and ask the focusing question: What is the smallest domino that you CAN knock over that will make everything else easier or unnecessary, in your world? &nbsp; Keep asking that question until the answer is something so small, so doable, that it almost seems too easy. Think big, but go small – and prove to yourself that you can knock that lead domino down today. &nbsp; Links &amp; Tools From This Episode Connect with Jeff: jeffsanders.com | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram Listen: The 5 AM Miracle Podcast Read: The Free Time Formula &nbsp; AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

Today, we want to take you on a journey. &nbsp; We host this podcast to show you new ways to live The ONE Thing at a higher level, and one of the ways that we learn best is through story, or through other people’s experiences. &nbsp; Our guest, Dan Quiggle, was well on his way to building a successful business – but the number of hours he worked prevented him from doing the thing that mattered most: being a father who was present for his daughter. While you listen to Dan’s story, assess where you are in your journey: Are you striking the right work-life counterbalance for you? Are you holding onto tasks that are limiting your impact? What does it mean to show up for the people who matter most in your life? &nbsp; &nbsp;In this episode you will learn... [2:20] Why work-life balance doesn’t exist. [6:40] How you can build a business that scales without you. [10:30] The ONE thing that separates successful people from extraordinary leaders. [14:05] How you can practice work-life presence. [19:20] What you can do to transition from work mode to family mode (and vice versa). &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: What was the ONE thing from this episode that resonated most with you? &nbsp; For us, it was when Dan asked, “Who’s getting the worst of you?” Many of us consider being a parent or spouse as the more important role in our lives, but too often, we give so much energy to work that our family gets the worst of us. &nbsp; So what’s the ONE thing you can do to show up as best version of yourself in the role that is most important to you? Continue to ask yourself that question until you narrow it down to one, specific, measurable activity that you CAN do.

Are you achieving extraordinary results? &nbsp; If the answer is no, why do you think that is? Gary Keller once said, “Sometimes you’re failing so slowly that you think you’re succeeding.” If you continue to act the way you are now, in the long term, what do you think will happen? This is the time of year to pause and ask ourselves these questions; it’s time for a reset. &nbsp; We’re bringing this model to you for the first time – a chance for you to reflect on how things are going, re-evaluate what’s working, simplify your approach, establish a new plan, and time block it.

Imagine each of the seven circles of your life – spirituality, physical health, personal life, relationships, your job, your business, and your finances – is a ball, and you are juggling them. What happens if you drop the relationship ball? &nbsp; If you drop that ball, it breaks. We find that people often spend so much time focusing on their job, business, and finances that they, ultimately, end up neglecting their relationships, spirituality, health, and personal life. &nbsp; Jordan Harbinger, titular host of The Jordan Harbinger Show, has been on a decades-long journey learning how to form powerful relationships and network in a way that brings results – as opposed to what a lot of us do, which is NOT working. In this episode, Jordan is going to share how you can really distinguish yourself and form relationships that matter. &nbsp; &nbsp;The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: What is the ONE thing from this episode that will make everything else easier or unnecessary, when it comes to your relationships? &nbsp; We really resonated with the idea that you need to stand out – you just have to be a little bit different. And this doesn’t even have to be a big thing! When everyone else is just clicking Like on Facebook, are you willing to actually send a text? And if you aren’t willing to do those things… are the quality of your relationships reflect of what you’re putting in? &nbsp; Remember: build the well before you need to use it; bring value to other people FIRST, not expecting anything in return. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [9:00] The 20% work that leads to 80% of results, when it comes to forming the right relationships. [16:05] How you can become the type of person who brings value to others.

Have you ever sacrificed your family time, your health, or your spiritual life, for your career? &nbsp; Today you’re going to hear about someone who fell into that trap: John Lamerton thought that getting everything he wanted required adding more things into his world, and as a result he ended up working 100 hours a week and sacrificing time with his family – until he got a massive wake-up call in the form of a newborn son. &nbsp; You’re going to discover what led to John’s mindset shift, and how subtracting, simplifying, and focusing allowed him to go from working 100-hour weeks to 25-hour weeks – all while making more money, experiencing less stress, and spending more time with his family. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Our biggest takeaway from this episode is doing less – not more. &nbsp; Sometimes, the things you like doing, and even the things that make you feel productive (or maybe just busy), aren’t the things that are going to make you effective – and they detract from the ONE thing that actually matters most. &nbsp; What can you do, today, to get more clarity on the things that you’re currently saying yes to that you should consider saying no to? And are you willing to block out time on your calendar to figure it out – possibly even saying NO to something less important in the process? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [7:10] How you can cut hours from your work week (while getting more done). [13:00] How you can start intentionally choosing power habits and stop accidentally falling into habits.

Have you ever blocked out time on your calendar for something that really mattered, and then life got in the way? &nbsp; We know it happens to us, and has happened, at some point, to all of the 1,700 people who attended the keynote that we are sharing in this episode. &nbsp; This is part two of a two-part series on time blocking secrets. In part one, we discussed some of the changes you can make in your life to move forward on the road to mastery. In this episode, we answer questions about what people just like you are struggling with when it comes to time blocking. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [2:45] How you can create an environment that supports your goals. [14:45] Why saying yes to yourself first (and no to everyone else) will give you time to say yes to everyone else, later. [23:30] How you can protect your time by setting expectations with the people around you. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: How will you endure the monotony of success? &nbsp; We mentioned in the last episode that this is a road to mastery, and that means you have to adopt the mindset of a student. You have to take action to learn, every day, and every day you will fail – and you will make progress. &nbsp; If you’d like support in taking the next step in your journey, consider joining the Living Your ONE Thing Community.

Have you ever tried time blocking? If so, do you have a habit of time blocking every single day and protecting that time, no matter what? &nbsp; If you answered no, don’t worry. We haven’t mastered this habit either, and we all struggle with this. But we are trying to do better and improve, every single day, and we have learned a lot that we’d like to share with you. &nbsp; This episode is the first half of a keynote we delivered on time blocking secrets, in which we focus on how you can begin to make positive changes and move forward on the road to mastery. &nbsp; &nbsp; In this episode you will learn...

When it comes to The ONE Thing, the tip of the iceberg is your results, or your profit – but what lies underneath the surface, supporting those results? &nbsp; We can’t get the right results if we don’t take the right actions, we can’t choose the right actions if we don’t know what our priorities are, and we can’t know what your priorities are if we don’t have clarity on our purpose. That’s why we’re sharing a conversation with a woman who is completely driven by purpose, and we encourage you to listen for three themes: when purpose comes into the picture, when she starts narrowing her focus, and how she moves from Entrepreneurial to Purposeful. &nbsp; Christina Sass is the Co-Founder &amp; President of Andela, which CNN called “the startup that’s harder to get into than Harvard.” They are on a mission to train 100,000 world-class software developers in Africa to bridge the divide between U.S. and African tech sectors, and it’s remarkable what they’ve been able to accomplish in just a few years. &nbsp; &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [8:00] How you can solve a BIG problem by focusing on ONE action. [18:30] What it looks like to narrow your focus and say no to everything else. [24:05] How you can start moving from E to P. [30:50] Why (and how) anyone can start shifting the culture in an organization. [34:50] ONE thing you can do to find more success in business. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We love what Christina says at the end of this conversation: “Purpose is a currency all on its own. Find your purpose, and the means to attack it will follow.” Are you clear about what your purpose is, or do you have a general sense of what it might be? &nbsp; The path to discovering your purpose starts by getting on the path. So how much time, every week, are you intentionally pausing to think about what your purpose might be? If you invest zero time, you won’t have any clarity. &nbsp; If you want to get on the path, we want to help.

If you lose it, you can always get it back. But time is lost forever. When we ask people if they would rather get more time back or more money, they always say time. We share this because you don’t have to live with regret. In the Living Your ONE Thing membership training program, you will learn how to thrive in business without sacrificing time for the things that matter most. &nbsp; If you find yourself struggling with time, head over to the1thing.com/membership or text the word ACCOUNTABILITY to the number 33444 to start your 7-day trial. &nbsp; The ONE Thing is produced by Podcast MastersMentioned in this episode:BambeeGo to Bambee.com RIGHT NOW and type in The ONE Thing under PODCAST when you sign up - it’ll really help the show.

Do you know how to show up as the most effective leader that you possibly can? &nbsp; We know that many of you are leaders – business owners, entrepreneurs, or employees in a management role – who are out to make a big change in the world, and you want to influence the people around you to create a big impact. But how? &nbsp; To find out, we sat down to speak with Mark C. Crowley, the author of Lead from the Heart: Transformational Leadership for the 21st Century. &nbsp; &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [6:10] The science behind why leading from the heart is so successful in business. [10:00] What you can do to bring more caring into your leadership. [17:00] The ONE thing you can do to create hockey stick-shaped growth in your leadership ability. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Who are the people in your life that you really care about? Do you have clarity – real clarity – on why they’re doing what they’re doing, and what they’re working towards? &nbsp; If the answer to that question is no, how much time do you think it would take to ask them and find out? And what would become possible if you ask everyone you care about (which should include everyone you manage) that question? &nbsp; We think asking that question is the lead domino that will allow you to unleash exponential growth in your leadership ability. &nbsp; Links &amp; Tools From This Episode Learn more at leadfromtheheart.com Connect with Mark: Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn Read: Lead from the Heart: Transformational Leadership for the 21st Century Click here to leave a review on iTunes &nbsp; AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

When you go to social events, are you networking or are you not working? &nbsp; We’ve been there – going to networking events and masterminds without really getting or giving any value in the experiences that we share with others. But with a little bit of knowledge, we can stop wasting time and start networking with purpose. &nbsp; To help us, we sit down with a human behavior expert: Vanessa Van Edwards, the lead investigator at her research lab, Science of People, and the bestselling author of Captivate: The Science of Succeeding with People. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [2:05] How you can have dazzling conversations (and what that means). [5:10] The biggest lie we’re told about people skills and charisma. [8:20] How you can identify what kind of person you are and set yourself up for networking success. [13:45] What you can do to create a better first impression. [19:40] The ONE thing you can do right now to develop more meaningful relationships. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We love what Vanessa said about being a highlighter – when you introduce one person to another person, and you really rave about what makes them exceptional, it leaves a lasting impression. And when you make this a habit, it forces you to listen more intently because, if you know you will have to recall information about them, you will listen with purpose. &nbsp; What is the ONE thing from this episode that made the biggest impression on you? &nbsp;We really want to know.

Have you ever found yourself getting home after work and sitting down with the people who matter most to you... but then your mind goes somewhere else? &nbsp; We know that many of you are struggling to stay present, every day, so we wanted to share this conversation between Geoff Woods and Trevor Mauch, host of the CarrotCast. Trevor invited Geoff onto his show, but then we ended up turning the tables to ask questions about how he can start being more present. &nbsp; As you listen to the episode, ask yourself the same questions that Geoff poses to Trevor – and consider the cost of choosing not to. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Are you happy with the habits that you’ve formed over the past 12 months? Have you formed any bad habits, unintentionally? &nbsp; We end up doing activities that we know aren’t our ONE thing, every single day, and the end result is failing so slowly that we think we’re succeeding. And over time, if you continue to fail a little every day, there will be an extraordinary loss. &nbsp; So what is the ONE activity you can do today to start changing it? The path to getting everything you want starts with doing one thing at a time – think big, go small. You can click here to tell us what action you're taking in a review in iTunes. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [7:20] Why you should shift from a ‘helping me’ attitude to a ‘helping you’ attitude (if you want to be achieve extraordinary success).

You are failing, every day. &nbsp; We know this because we’re living The ONE Thing, and we’re failing every day too. &nbsp; So on this episode, we’re going to explore the underlying reason why you may be struggling to achieve the extraordinary results that you desire, and explain why bravery, self-worth, and curiosity are necessary for living an extraordinary life. Our guest is Emily Ann Peterson, a musician, creative consultant, and the author of Bare Naked Bravery: How to Be Creatively Courageous. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Bravery doesn’t happen all at once –&nbsp;it starts really small, and then grows as you nurture it. &nbsp; Emily suggests that you start with curiosity, asking yourself a question that forces you to look in the mirror. We encourage you to write down five deadly questions – questions so big that they force you to pause and search for a good answer – and then share them with us in a review on your podcast player of choice. We’d love to share these in a future episode. &nbsp; You can click here to leave a review in iTunes. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [5:50] Why curiosity is an amazing place to start when you are struggling with fear of the unknown, feeling lost, or running up against friction in your life. [8:20] How you can use friction to move forward. [11:15] Why you need a sense of self-worth to be brave (and achieve extraordinary results). [14:00] How you can begin to generate self-worth.

Every single person in the world has the same number of hours in their day… so what makes the difference between average results and extraordinary results? &nbsp; We believe it all comes down to how you set goals; the clarity that you have on the vision for your life. &nbsp; That’s why we’re sharing this keynote presentation by Jay Papasan and Geoff Woods, in which we’ll walk you through our process for setting goals. This episode focuses on goal-setting fundamentals, and in the next episode we’ll walk you through how we applied these models and systems for our specific goals. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: If you have a significant other, are you bringing them along your goal setting journey? Are you setting your goals with them, or are you doing it independently? &nbsp; If you are goal setting alone, you are missing a massive opportunity. Ask for help. &nbsp; We held a couples goal setting retreat last year, and it was massively impactful for everyone who attended. That’s why we’re going to do it again in November 2018, and you can sign up for the waitlist at the1thing.com/event. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [10:00] Why you need to put more time into goal setting if you want more clarity. [19:20] What you need to ask yourself to begin goal setting to the now.

Do you wake up every single day to trade your life for your job? If so… are you getting the good end of that deal? &nbsp; If you ever want to achieve extraordinary results and true wealth, you will have to change your actions – and to accomplish that, you will have to transform the way you think. &nbsp; To help us accomplish that mindset transformation, we’re talking to Nik Halik and Garrett Gunderson, the co-authors of 5 Day Weekend: Freedom to Make Your Life and Work Rich with Purpose. We were first introduced to Nik and Garrett because 5 Day Weekend is the newest book published by Ray Bard, publisher of The ONE Thing, who only publishes one book every year (obviously, he has an incredible track record). &nbsp; We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series. Every month, we feature an incredible author so that you can learn directly from them and ask questions. If you want to sign up for our next FREE monthly webinar, head over to the1thing.com/webinars.In this episode you will learn... [8:30] Why your current financial situation does not dictate your future wealth. [15:15] The five steps of the 5 Day Weekend. [20:50] ONE thing you can do to transform your financial life. [31:00] The limiting beliefs that we tell ourselves about generating wealth (and why they’re not true). [34:50] Why you’re only ever ONE idea or ONE relationship away from the next level of prosperity. [39:00] How you can invest $5,000, today, and get a good return on your investment. [42:10] Why you and your significant other should have ONE meeting, every week, about your shared vision (check out Garrett’s weekly agenda at freedomfasttrack.com/marriage). &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Stop making excuses about why you are not taking action to achieve financial freedom – the first step is to keep more of what you’re making right now. &nbsp; Look at where your money is going and identify what expenses you can cut, and only after that should you start looking at how to generate more money. &nbsp; If you trust the domino effect, keep your lifestyle where it is, and trust the 5 Day Weekend model, your passive income will rise over time – until you can wake up and choose what to do every single day.

Do you ever feel like you are juggling so many different tasks that, inevitably, some things end up slipping through the cracks? &nbsp; We’ve definitely experienced that in our business, and so has our guest Jenny McCarty. Jenny is a business owner, a member of our Living Your ONE Thing community, and a military wife, which means she is constantly moving – and every time she moves, she has to start her business all over again. &nbsp; This is because Jenny has been acting entrepreneurially, relying on her own natural abilities, instead of acting purposefully. She reached out to us for help before her next move, and we want to share that call because we think it can help you too. In this episode, we ask questions that will help you identify the models and systems that you can implement so that your business can scale without you. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: As people, we tend to over complicate things. We make our problems feel difficult, but in reality, it doesn’t have to be that way. Your life, and your business, can be simple – and the simpler it is, the easier it will be to scale. &nbsp; And building systems doesn’t actually have to take a lot of time. With a little bit of technology – and the intention to document everything – you can record every step of your process and then leverage VA resources to turn that into a system. &nbsp; If you’d like to see how we do this, we will be sharing our process in a training for the Living Your ONE Thing Community. Click here to join today. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [12:10] Why documenting your systems is a powerful lead domino.

When you start a new relationship, do you show up looking to give or get? &nbsp; Many entrepreneurs show up trying to leverage every situation, but we only start receiving the most value when we start offering it. Superconnectors are the people who create value by making connections for other people because, in every interaction and new relationship, they show up looking to give, not get. &nbsp; Scott Gerber started the Young Entrepreneurs Council, founded The Community Company, and wrote the book Superconnector. In this episode, he shares how you can transform your mindset, be more meaningful and purposeful in every interaction, and start building relationships that really matter. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: What’s the ONE thing in this episode that will help you stop networking, and start forming real relationships that matter? &nbsp; When you find your answer, let us know in a review on iTunes, or wherever you get your podcasts. We see every single review, and we want to know what helped you. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [3:50] How becoming a Superconnector can knock over more dominoes in your life. [6:00] The ONE thing that will allow you to form connections with people who are where you want to be. [8:30] Why facilitating great experiences adds more value than showing up to network. [10:20] What becomes possible when you develop a connector’s mind. [16:30] ONE simple strategy you can use to audit your mindset and behaviors.

Today we are getting raw and vulnerable with all of you. &nbsp; In our conversations with all of you, we've learned that many of you are making excuses for your results – and in reality, the ONE thing you're failing to do is look in the mirror and accept accountability. &nbsp; JT McCormick had an unfortunate childhood – it's hard for many of us to fathom growing up in his shoes – but in spite of his tumultuous start in life, he has managed to achieve an extraordinary level of success. Sometimes we lack the perspective to look at our situation and find gratitude, and as a result, we end up making excuses, but JT is here to serve us all a big helping of Perspective Pie. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We can all make the CHOICE to achieve more – it just requires a simple mindset shift and some elbow grease. In this conversation, you'll hear when JT chose to be the best at everything he did, even scrubbing toilets. &nbsp; So we have a question for you: Are you doing the best that you can do, or are you doing the best that can be done? &nbsp; What is the ONE thing you can do to show up as the best in business, family, or wherever is most important to you – and where in your life are you making excuses when you could be getting results? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [17:40] The only three things you need to achieve success. [21:10] What you need to know if you feel stuck against the ceiling of achievement.

We spend 25% of our life, if not more, at work – and many of our workplaces are broken; we lack fulfillment. &nbsp; We lack control, we lack clarity on where we are going, and too many of us don't feel like we're waking up every day to trade our lives for something of value.

Do you struggle with being present? &nbsp; We talk a lot about achieving extraordinary results, setting goals, and gaining clarity on your priorities.... but one thing that we don't often talk about as much is mastering our mindset. So many of us are constantly thinking about the next thing that we have to do or something that's already happened, and as a result, we're never really in the moment. &nbsp; If you are always living in the future or the past, then being present may be ONE thing that can transform every area of your life. Jeff Photiades joins the show to share how he started getting more intentional around his mindset, and how you can too. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: If you were able to, at any time, be truly present and nowhere else, would that ONE thing improve every area of your life? &nbsp; We think it will, and we believe practicing meditation will help you accomplish that. If you don't have a meditation practice already in place, we challenge you to start one. Even if it starts with just one breath a day, that is ONE thing that can make being present easier or unnecessary. &nbsp; Download yourself a free 66-Day Challenge Calendar to start today. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [3:00] How developing a better understanding of yourself helps you understand others. [7:15] What it looks like when you apply the principles of goal setting to your personal life. [12:15] Why the story you tell yourself about having to work more isn't always true. [14:30] What you can do if you are struggling to strike a good work-life counterbalance.

Do you talk to the people you care about, especially if you’re a parent, about what their goals are and how they can achieve them? &nbsp; In episode 117, we heard the story of Holli and Cade McCray, a mother and son who started living The ONE Thing together. In this episode, we're talking to another mother-and-son duo: Nicole and Cooper Hefferman. &nbsp; Cooper is now living his ONE thing, using principles from the book to create a plan and, ultimately, get to Broadway in the next year – and it all started when Nicole picked up a copy of The ONE Thing in an airport and started asking her son more questions about his goals. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: For you to be productive, you have to have clarity on your priorities. And for you to have clarity on your priorities, you need to have an understanding of what your purpose is. Conversations like these help us realize that what we do is founded in purpose. &nbsp; When you take action, you are impacting other people, and you can shine a light on what is possible. &nbsp; So who is ONE person that you can empower to start a journey towards mastering their time? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [4:10] Why The Domino Effect is an effective tool for clarifying your vision. [6:50] How you can help your children get clarity on their goals &amp; act more purposefully.

You bring a lot of intention, energy, and focus to your professional world – are you bringing that same focus to your relationships at home? &nbsp; When we don't plan healthy habits in our relationships – especially our romantic relationships – things tend to fall apart as life happens, and that starts to spill over to every other aspect of our lives. &nbsp; With over 15 years of experiencing helping couples heal, reset, and thrive, relationship therapist and educator John Howard joins the show to help us be more intentional and transform our relationships. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: What is the ONE thing you can do to connect more in your relationships? &nbsp; We challenge you to go a step farther than thinking about the question – Prove to yourself that you can begin to affect positive change in those relationships that matter. &nbsp; If working on your relationship is important to you, schedule time for connecting on your calendar (even if it's just a long hug at the end of the workday). &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [2:30] The ONE habit that will transform your relationships. [10:00] What you are doing to create disconnection in your relationships. [16:00] How you can have (and start) the tough conversations in your relationships. [23:25] Why it's okay (and beneficial!) to be vulnerable and ask for help in your relationships.

When your ONE thing is your children, you always have more than one thing going on at any given moment, and it never feels like you're in control of your time. &nbsp; While many listeners have a strong professional focus, we know that a number of you already have the hardest job in the world: being a stay-at-home parent. This show isn't about featuring big names; it's about showing what it looks like when you actually live The ONE Thing – &nbsp;so today we're sharing this conversation with one of you, Rachel Benson, a stay-at-home mother of three who also has responsibilities supporting her husband's business. &nbsp; For years Rachel has struggled to balance it all, but in this episode, we offer some guidance. Last week Geoff shared a live coaching call between himself and Tony DiCello, and we learned how a coach helps you amplify accountability – now Geoff is putting those lessons into action. &nbsp;The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We love this conversation because Rachel is thinking what all of us are thinking – but she has the confidence to say it out loud, enlist support, and commit to taking actions that will change her results. &nbsp; You have to get started. &nbsp; So out of everything discussed in this episode, what is the ONE thing that you can do differently – and will you commit to doing it? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn...

Why are you doing what you are doing? &nbsp; The ONE Thing is about teaching the surprisingly simple truth behind extraordinary results, but many of us fail to ask ourselves that simple question. For many of us, we do what we do to create moments that matter with the people that matter... but, too often, we lose sight of these relationships. &nbsp; We are dedicating the entire month of February, in our Living Your ONE Thing Community, to creating extraordinary relationships in four specific areas: wealth determiners, loved ones, friends, and mentors.

Life offers so much – but time is limited, so every day you have to wake up and make choices. &nbsp; Unfortunately, many of us choose to try to do it all. We have massive ambitions and take massive action but, at the end of the day, we don't feel like we actually got anything done. &nbsp; Instead of trying to go wide, we have the opportunity to go deep; to be selective about what we choose to learn, have, and do. To help you take advantage of that opportunity, we are sharing this conversation with Eric Barker, author of Barking Up the Wrong Tree: The Surprising Science Behind Why Everything You Know About Success Is (Mostly) Wrong. &nbsp; We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series. Every month, we feature an incredible author so that you can learn directly from them and ask questions.

When in your life were you trained how to communicate with the people who matter most to you? &nbsp; Many of us have never received this kind of training or received it far too late in life – yet, almost all of us have experienced some kind of conflict in our long-term relationships (whether that be with a significant other, business partner, boss, or employee). &nbsp; That's why we're sharing this conversation with Dr. Matt Townsend, author, radio host, and relationship expert, who will teach you how to transform the relationships that matter most to you by cutting through the smoke to solve the real problems at hand. &nbsp; &nbsp;The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: What's one relationship that really matters to you – and, if you're honest with yourself, is hurting? &nbsp; Are you showing up in those interactions genuinely caring about the other person first, before considering your agenda? &nbsp; Based on that answer, what is the ONE thing you can do that will allow you to show that person that you care, and make them feel cared for? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [5:30] How you can start training in communication skills for relationships.

Gary Keller once said that the definition of a wealthy person is someone who has the passive income to fund their life's purpose. &nbsp; Based on that definition, we have to do two things to live a wealthy life: find our purpose, and then build a business that can fund it passively. &nbsp; Does building that kind of business sound far-fetched? Well, Joseph Gozlan joins us today to show you why it's not. This is an incredible case study of how someone just like you found clarity on their purpose and then boiled that down to the ONE thing he needed to achieve extraordinary results. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Your purpose determines your priorities, your priorities determine your productivity, and your productivity determines your results. &nbsp; So how can you get clear on the type of impact that you want to make, and what type of business will you have to build to fund that impact? &nbsp; Based on your answers to those questions, go through the goal setting to now exercise. You can find this exercise in our FREE My Purpose Handbook at the1thing.com/mypurpose. &nbsp;In this episode you will learn... [4:00] How you can get clarity on your purpose. [12:55] What you can do to protect your time (because, inevitably, life will try to get in the way).

Are you looking for a way to achieve extraordinary results in your life, but falling short? &nbsp; We believe that achieving the extraordinary all comes down to how you manage your time. And, despite our best intentions, most of us not making the most of our time. This isn't due to a lack of work ethic or clarity – we are just not physically prepared to show up as the highest version of ourselves. &nbsp; Shawn Stevenson is a sleep expert, the author of Sleep Smarter, and host of The Model Health Show, and he joins the show because sleep has a dramatic impact on our performance (whether we want it to or not).

After reading The ONE Thing, have you struggled to prioritize and implement it? &nbsp; You're not alone. One of the most common concerns we hear from people who have read the book is that they love the idea, but they struggle to find their ONE thing, and then do it before anything else. &nbsp; Today we're sharing a wake-up call: the incredible story of Tammy Verduzco, who found her ONE thing and then took action – despite being laid up in the hospital after massive complications with surgery. If she can do it, you can do it too... if you stop making excuses. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Tammy reminds us that if you don't find and stick to Your ONE Thing, the only person you're letting down is yourself... and why would you want to do that? &nbsp; We all have baggage, we all have problems, and we all have the same opportunity to create an extraordinary life. Will you hold yourself accountable for making that your standard, or will you make excuses? &nbsp; What do you need to get so committed to finding Your ONE Thing that you won't let anything else get in the way? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [1:20] How focus produces extraordinary results – not just in business, but also in your health. [16:55] How you can start finding clarity.

If you ask Gary Keller what inspired him to write The ONE Thing, he will tell you that it's about living a life of no regret. How can we make the most out of our limited time here on Earth, and live a life that is extraordinary? &nbsp; We believe that living a life without regret really comes down to making moments that matter. &nbsp; Today's guest, Jon Vroman, was inspired by this idea. He founded the Front Row Foundation and wrote the #1 bestselling book The Front Row Factor, and he has dedicated the rest of his life to helping others, especially people who are fighting for their lives, create moments that matter. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Many of us tell ourselves the story that we can't do something because we imagine the person we were yesterday and not the person we are today – or who we will be tomorrow. &nbsp; We believe that you can achieve far more than you believe is possible if you are willing to help raise other people up. &nbsp; So out of everything that you heard in this episode, what is the ONE thing you can do that will allow you to help others create moments that matter? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [7:00] How you can start experiencing moments that matter every single day. [14:50] The difference between wishful thinking and hope (and why hope is so powerful).

If you put yourself in Kathy's shoes and ask yourself the same questions, you will experience, first hand, what accountability feels like. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We believe that your potential is so much higher than you think is possible – and we will fight, every single day, to get you to those possibilities. &nbsp; And sometimes that means having tough conversations. &nbsp; If you are not living Your ONE Thing, ask yourself the same questions that we asked Kathy.

The beginning of a new year is a perfect time to look at your business and your life and ask yourself a simple question: what do I want to do differently? &nbsp; Building momentum begins with a good strategy, so we want to pull the curtain back and share how we planned our year, and the specific things that we're going to do differently this year so that we can achieve extraordinary results. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Out of everything that we covered in this episode – slowing down to make the right plan, evolving vs. reinventing, daring to take the model and evolve it, or moving from E to P – where is your opportunity for growth? &nbsp; What is the ONE most potent step you can take to move forward with momentum? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn...

If you are hitting a ceiling of achievement in your life, then you are missing a person&nbsp;– either in the form of a mentor or leverage. &nbsp; Today we are focusing on the leverage side; the people who can take things off of your plate so that you can focus on the 20% work that will allow you to achieve extraordinary results. &nbsp; In episode 50, we talked to today's guest, Gene Rivers, about how he and his wife run nine successful businesses, while still finding time to vacation four months out of the year and devote time to their family every day. Gene is only able to do this because he leverages the people around him and coaches them to achieve more – and today he shares how you can do that too. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: After you listen to the episode, take a moment to reflect on these questions: &nbsp; – What are you currently doing that's helping your people achieve their life goals – and what are you doing that's stopping your people from achieving their goals? &nbsp; – Many of us want to be liked, and because of that, we avoid tough conversations that should happen with the people in our world. Are you contributing to their goals, or are you contaminating them by allowing them to remain in your world when it's not the right fit? &nbsp; – Are you clear on what the standards for performance in your organization are? Are you bringing focus and accountability to the actions and metrics that need to be completed to achieve the goal? &nbsp; – Finally, what is the ONE thing you can do that will allow you to show up as a better leader and coach your people to their possibilities? &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [7:50] Why you need empire builders to your team (and how you can identify them). [15:25] How you can leverage a weekly checkup to create more accountability.

If you want to live an extraordinary life, you have to master something – but it only has to be ONE thing. &nbsp; For many of us, mastering the ability to communicate with other people, or connect with others, is the ONE thing that will make everything else easier or unnecessary. &nbsp; Today, we sit down with someone who has mastered the art of asking great questions: Susan Scott, the author of Fierce Conversations.

Everyone has at least one person who truly matters to them... and many of us are doing ONE thing that is harming that relationship. &nbsp; In The ONE Thing, Gary and Jay lay out the seven most important areas of your life: spirituality, physical health, personal, relationships, job, business, and finances. We often set goals around our jobs, businesses, and finances... but those are rubber balls, and if we drop them they can bounce back. Spirituality, physical health, personal life, and relationships are glass balls – if you drop one of them, it will shatter. &nbsp; Lewis Howes is the New York Times Bestselling author of The School of Greatness and The Mask of Masculinity, and he joins the show to share why you are hurting your most valuable relationships and the ONE thing you can do to turn it all around. &nbsp; We recorded this conversation as part of our monthly ONE Thing webinar series.

Do you wake up every single day intentionally adding value to specific relationships? &nbsp; Too many of us take our relationships for granted, and we aren't approaching our relationships with a strategy – but nurturing the relationships that matter most is an under-appreciated and transformative power habit. &nbsp; Steve Sims has built a legacy out of forming relationships at a very high level. He is the author of Bluefishing: The Art of Making Things Happen and the Founder of Bluefish, a concierge service for the elite of the elite. If you want to visit the Titanic, get married by the Pope, or have dinner at the footsteps of Michelangelo's David while being serenaded by Andrea Bocelli, Steve is the man who can make it happen – and he can do that because of the relationships he has formed. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We want you to think intentionally about the people in your life. Write down a list of everyone you like, and if you write down a name that you actually don't like you will feel it in your gut. Put a star next to that person. &nbsp; Then ask yourself a few questions about that person: &nbsp; – What role do they serve (if they serve one at all)? – What should that relationship look like moving forward? Maybe there shouldn't be a relationship at all. – What's the ONE thing you can do, such that by doing it, will allow you to shift that relationship? &nbsp; Have this conversation with yourself and take action – because, truly, you cannot afford not to. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [15:00] How you can overcome limiting beliefs (and why your limiting beliefs keep Steve in business). [18:20] ONE simple strategy you can use to approach anyone and set yourself apart. [32:30] Why the most successful individuals are usually looking for mentees (especially entrepreneurs). [38:15] How you can use The Chug Test to assess your relationships and remove people who shouldn't be in your life.

Then we heard about the book Hacking Growth, and it changed the way we thought about marketing. &nbsp; Sean Ellis is the author of Hacking Growth, and he was responsible for scaling businesses like DropBox, EventBrite, and LogMeIn – and those companies achieved tremendous levels of success because they did ONE thing differently. &nbsp; &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: We challenge you to run a survey that helps you understand WHO your must-have users are and WHY they consider your product a must-have. &nbsp; The first question: How would you feel if you could no longer use ? They can answer Disappointed, Somewhat Disappointed, Not Disappointed, or Not Applicable (I no longer use it). &nbsp; The follow-up question: What is the primary benefit that you have gotten from this product? &nbsp;In this episode you will learn... [1:40] What "hacking growth" really looks like. [5:45] How Sean improved the usage rate of a product by 1000% in just four months (and the unexpected way that affected company growth). [9:20] What it means to create a "must-have" product. [13:20] How to identify whether or not your product is considered a "must-have" (and then leverage that data). [19:00] How you can foster more love for a product. [24:30] How to hone in on your most beneficial product features (and why it is important). [35:00] The ONE metric you need to figure out. &nbsp; AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU! Form your first power habit with your 66 Day Challenge Calendar Check out our awesome blog!

Can you imagine living a life that is so amazing you don’t believe it’s actually possible? Gary Keller says that you’re never more than five years away from where you want to be – if you intentionally surround yourself with the right people, follow proven models and systems, and implement the guidance given to you, you are no more than five years from that seemingly-impossible life.

What does it take internally to thrive? Psychologists understand that the way in which we navigate our inner world drives every aspect of how we love, live, and lead... but it can be difficult for us to reflect inward and navigate our everyday thoughts, emotions, and self-talk because no one ever taught us how. Our guest, Dr. Susan David, is a clinical psychologist and author of the best-selling book, Emotional Agility: Get Unstuck, Embrace Change, and Thrive in Work and Life. We're sharing this conversation as a crash course to help you start developing emotional agility and thriving internally.

Many of the members of our Living Your ONE Thing community have asked the same question: How do I discover my purpose? So many people asked us that we decided to sit down with Brian Schoenbaum, Founder &amp; CEO of Vuka Collective, to create an exclusive training video for the ONE thing community. We talked to Brian because he operates on another level and a single purpose drives everything he does: helping people wake up in their personal and professional lives. &nbsp; We're sharing the audio from that training here because we want you to understand what we're doing for members of our community and consider if it is a good fit for you. If it is, you can go to the1thing.com/membership and try your first week for only $1. &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Jay Papasan once said, "The path to discovering your purpose begins with getting on the path." Finding your purpose is not a result of following certain steps in order. It is about pausing and finding the space to ask questions: When I walk into a room, what is the positive energy that other people experience? What is my unique genius in the world? How can I be bold? If you want to enlist support and get more training like this, you can join the Living Your ONE Thing community by going to the1thing.com/membership and signing up for a $1 trial. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [11:15] Why going on a journey to discover your purpose is so important (and what the payoff is). [19:40] How you can begin to take action on discovering your purpose.

Why do we all get stuck at some point in our lives? &nbsp; If you are listening to this podcast, it's because you want MORE out of life. You want to achieve greatness... but, too often, we get stuck along the way. Lolly Daskal, the author of The Leadership Gap, believes we get trapped in the gap when we ask the wrong questions. Before you consider how to achieve your goals, or why you have those goals, ask yourself a different question: Who am I? &nbsp; The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Before you understand what to do or why you're doing it, at any given moment, you need to know who you are being.

If you're not happy with what you feel, you can make a choice: keep doing the things that brought you into the gap or do something different. &nbsp; In this episode you will learn... [10:20] How you can leverage gaps to achieve greatness. [19:00] How to identify who you are (and how to be who you want to be).

Have you been distracted today? If we are intentional with our time, we can defeat distraction. Today’s guest, Valerie Tourangeau, is just like you. She was a fan of The ONE Thing for years, and then she finally implemented its powerful lessons. Now, she is able to dismiss the distractions and focus on her ONE thing, every day, because she is a time blocking master. Time Blocking is the act of scheduling time for yourself to do your most important tasks. It sounds simple, but most people struggle with committing time to themselves every day. Discussed in this episode: 1:45 - Valerie isn’t alone. A lot of people have said they read The ONE Thing and they love the book, but they never implemented the book. Why? 2:00 - 66 days can seem daunting, and finding a ONE thing in a world full of so many distractions seems like it won’t make the difference – but it really does. 2:30 - We say 66 days because, after five years of research, we discovered that it takes 66 full days to form a habit. 6:05 - Implementing The ONE Thing can expose a lot of your weaknesses.

If you are reading this, then I know a lot about you. You are a high achiever. You have massive goals and aspirations. You are unwavering in your commitment to accomplishing your goals. I'm the same way. When we have massive dreams, we tend to look for the fastest way to get there and run. The thing we usually don't do is ask the most important question: am I truly building something that can scale with or without me? If you want to build a brand that can scale, grow, live, breathe and thrive with or without you, then you need clarity about the ONE thing that will make everything else easier or unnecessary. Focus on accomplishing that ONE thing and say no to everything else because you haven't earned the right to focus on anything else yet – this is the surprisingly simple truth behind extraordinary results. Now you have the knowledge. Time to back it up with action. Take a look at all of the things you do throughout the day. How much of your daily schedule directly supports you accomplishing your ONE thing?
