Episode Highlights:
[01:36] The 7 Categories of Setting Goals and Living Intentionally
Are you where you want to be spiritually, physically, and according to your personal points of interest? How about in your key relationships, business, job, and finances?
[03:40] Choosing to Live Fully
You become a source of life for others when you choose to live fully into your God-given purpose and ultimate fulfilled life. Consequently, choosing to stay where you are could leave other people stranded. You can’t be somebody’s top five if you don’t take action.
[07:58] Changing the Future
I often think about the future as months or years from now. But even the next 8 hours is the future. If you want to change your past, change what you do in the next 8 hours.
[09:22] Becoming an Elite
Elites commit to taking action towards being the best version of themselves. Surround yourself with the right people, have the right conversations, and design the right environment.
[11:14] Becoming 1% Better than Yesterday
Change what you do over the next 8 hours. Do something that allows you to wake up tomorrow, knowing you did something to get 1% better. Then, make a habit of it. From there, you’ll become elite and live the life you’re seeking to live.
Notable quotes from the Episode:
[03:55] “When you choose to live fully, then you become a source of life for others.”
[06:24] “If you don’t get clear on everything that could be, for your life, or you get clear but you don’t take action, then you’re leaving the people who you would be part of their five—you’re leaving them stranded.”
[08:48] “If you want to change your past, change what you do in the next 8 hours because come tomorrow, today will be your past. So if you want to change your past, change your future.”
