48 Days to the Work You Love Internet Radio Show

Episode #590 December 15, 2017 —

In this week’s Podcast, we zone in on our goal setting with a great question from a listener who wants to know if he should push forward in 2018 to double his income knowing that his family life will suffer. We take a look at the 48 Days Goal Setting Workbook that includes setting goals for seven different areas of your life, not just career. Money is not how we should define success and therefore it should not lead our goal setting.

We also explore ways that this listener (and others) can meet his income goals without sacrificing the goals he has for his family and the other areas of his life.

Hi this is Dan Miller – and yes you’re listening to the 48 Days Radio show – where each week we take 48 minutes to dive into real life questions about finding your passion, deciding what kind of life you want to live – and then finding or creating work that allows you to show up every day, excited to be able to do something that is meaningful, fulfilling – and profitable.  This is where normal, indecision and ambiguity come to die.  Welcome to the 48 Days Radio Show.

Questions:

1. One of my employees resigned but now wants to stay.  Should I keep him?
2. I want to sell an online course -but only to people who share our conservative values
3. I’m a 19-yr-old young man with a passion for farming but I have no money.  How can I do this?
4. I know I can double my income in 2018 but my family will suffer.  Should I go for it?
5. Good News

Cliff Feightner poem:

How will you get paid for your skills
Will it cover more than the bills
Will what you bring to the table
Say you are way more than able
To earn the pay and the frills.

Quotation:

[spp-tweet tweet=”“Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.” Henry David Thoreau”]

Show Notes:

2:50 Dan encourages everyone to set their goals for 2018. Get the 48 Days Goal Setting Workbook now and don’t just wait to see what happens in 2018, decide what you want to happen. Having a sense of what you are heading toward makes it more possible that it will become a reality.

3:58 Good News!

7:27 Dan shares an update on the 11-year-old girl who has built a nationwide company selling lemonade sweetened with honey.

10:20 Can coffee and a muffin at a drive thru window really save a person’s life? Dan shares how it did for one person and reminds us all how a small thing can help someone out. Let’s all look for the small ways we can lift each other up, especially this time of year.

13:49 An employer asks Dan if she should allow an employee to come back after he resigned.

[spp-timestamp time=”16:20″] Dan cautions an online course creator about requiring a faith statement before someone can purchase their course. He shares his philosophies with 48 Days Resources and the 48 Days Eagles application process plus a free resource:  The Employer’s Guide To Faith In the Workplace.[spp-timestamp time=”22:00″] As a follow up to last week’s Podcast about more young people moving into farming, Dan shares a unique way a farmer in North Caroline was able to generate the money to start new ventures in farming. Find out more Kiva.org.

29:00 Let’s talk about family and career and what’s more important. Should you sacrifice your family to double your income or is there a way you can spend the time you want to with your family and also increase your income? Dan’s recommendation: get clear on what your goals are and be sure they include every area of your life.

This week we talk about education and the different ways you can get it. The important thing is to understand your end goal before you decide what kind of education you need: a masters degree, a high impact seminar or even traveling the world.

Hi, this is Dan Miller. You’re listening to the 48 Days Radio show – where each week we take 48 minutes to dive into real life questions about finding your passion, deciding what kind of life you want to live – and then finding or creating work that allows you to show up every day, excited to be able to do something that is meaningful, fulfilling – and profitable.  This is where normal, indecision and ambiguity come to die.  Welcome to the 48 Days Radio Show.

Questions:

Here’s a Font Designed Specifically For Dyslexia

I have a master’s degree and live in a homeless shelter.

How can we teach our 12-yr-old son Entrepreneurship skills? 

For twenty years, I wanted to be an entrepreneur and for twenty years nothing.

I’ve contacted several companies inquiring about salary, but cannot get anyone to take or return my calls. 

Good News

Cliff Feightner poem:

For knowledge need no further lookBetween covers of a good bookMaybe for a small feeOr the library, it’s freeFor information that flows like a brook

Quotation:

“The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to create the possibilities for a child to invent and discover, to create men who are capable of doing new things.” Jean Piaget  TWEET THIS

Show Notes:

4:50 Why good news is important to share

5:30 A podcast listener shares her good news. She and a church group recently bought a single mom a brand new SUV. They saw a need and they filled out.

6:49 Dan shares a font designed specifically for people with dyslexia – how and why it works.

10:08 A young guy recently traveled 1,000 miles to meet an 81 year old woman he met through Words with Friends

11:40 Dan shares some of the exciting things happening in the 48 Days Eagles Community, including a compilation of inspirational stories that started with the goal of 48 and is now having to be edited down to 365.

12:18 Scott has a masters degree and lives in a homeless shelter. Dan says it grieves him that there are so many people out there with masters or advanced degrees earning $8-10/hour and recommends that if you’re thinking about getting a masters or advanced degree that you think about how you might be able to invest that money into yourself via a seminar, travel, in your own business, etc. Ask yourself:  is it the best use of your time and money to get an advanced degree?

20:16 Dan shares Benjamin Franklin’s concerns that higher education doesn’t provide people with practical, marketable skills, yet we’re still having the same issues today.

22:43 Abby asks Dan for a list of books he would recommend for her to give to her 20 something sons to help them explore their talents and gifts and to find their careers. His recs:

• 48 Days To The Work You Love

• How To Find Your Purpose and Passion: Four Easy Steps To Discover a Job You Want and Live the Life You Love by Cassandra Gaisford

24:20 Dan talks about what you should be doing in your 20s and 30s. There aren’t many things he would consider a mistake at that age. Be careful about locking into a career too early.

26:00 Dan shares his history of education and why he went to school, not for a piece of paper so someone would hire him.

28:07 Dan shares his daughter Ashley’s unschooling experiences with his 3 granddaughters. They may be learning more than they could sitting in a seat in a classroom.

29:20 Steve will soon be teaching a class on entrepreneurship to teens and asked Dan for resources. Dan’s recommendations.

36:49 A listener has been dreaming of becoming an entrepreneur for 20 years, but nothing. He’s now selling insurance but doesn’t like his job. Dan reminds him that there’s a big difference between deciding and doing and recommends that he develop a clear plan that starts by setting his goals, using the 48 Days Power of Goals Workbook. He tells him that 85% of the process in finding work you love comes from looking inward first and encourages him to do so.

42:40 A listener who has had two of his four children in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and his wife would like to design a shirt for the 48 Days Amazon Merch Account that says “Proud Parent of a NICU Graduate.” Dan says definitely. Send it on. Send it to [email protected].

45:06 A Civil Engineer is looking to relocate to Texas and asks Dan what he should do. He says he’s called several companies inquiring about salary and has not received any feedback.

Summary:

It’s that time of the year when we reflect on all that we have and express our gratitude—Thanksgiving! It’s also a time that we can be cognizant of others and share a meal, a gift basket, or even just a smile. Today, Dan shares a number of inspiring stories of people who went the extra mile for their neighbor. He also expresses the importance of discovering that dream, wish, or purpose that takes our life to a whole new level.
