The ONE Thing

139. Creating Work Life Counter-Balance Requires Delegation & a Change in Mindset | Dan Quiggle


Listen Later

Today, we want to take you on a journey.   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.   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?    

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).  

  • The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode:

    What was the ONE thing from this episode that resonated most with you?   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.   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.
