Breaking the Procrastination Habit

Let's be honest there are things that you don't want to do, that you know you should do, but don't do. And the reasons are many.

You may say, "I don't procrastinate, I never do that in my job"! Okay, well how's that eating right thing going for you? How about those workouts you said you would do...someday.

Oh how about not eating sugar, quitting drinking, stopping fast food, going to the doctor, learning a foreign language, an instrument, going to counseling, hiring a coach you need. Yep you put it off...that's procrastination.

In this episode of A New Direction #1 International Best-Selling Self-Help Author Scott Allan joins us to help you break the HABIT! Yes, the Habit of Procrastination.

Scott Allan's book "Do the Hard Things First: How to Win Over Procrastination and Master the Habit of Doing Difficult Work" is a complete toolkit to overcome procrastination.

Do the Hard Things First (DTHTF) starts by taking a deep dive into what procrastination is and why we do it.

Scott, wants all of us to start with a clean slate when it comes to this particular challenge, and part of that clean slate is stepping into forgiveness.  Forgiving yourself and your past.

Then Scott moves us to 22 steps that you can take to begin the process, and he notes it is a process of getting ourselves in a position where we are doing the more difficult tasks first, rather than those things that have very little pay off.

These steps are not all required.  In fact, you can pick as many as you want that work for you.

I highly recommend you take a look at his step of the 80/20 Pareto Principle as a way to overcome Procrastination and the Premack Principle and Bundling.

If you struggle having the hard conversations, or putting them off, or not dealing with your finances, writing that book you threatened to write or something else.  This book will be a refreshing help for you.

How Navy SEALs and Entrepreneurs Bend & Break the Rules for Results!

Get a job at any business and the first thing you are told is the rules. "This is how we do things here."

As we age we get even more rule oriented. Less dreaming, less risk taking, less creative thinking, and God forbid that you should challenge convention.

The fact is we are a rules driven society. The fact is those that disagree with you, want to impose their rules on YOU, so you will do as they say and wish.

And yes the military has a set of established rules, but one thing that may surprise you is when you are in "unconventional warfare" units, like the Navy SEALs you have to take a more unconventional, creative approach. And yes, even at times the rules of warfare are completely thrown out the window.

How about you? Are you willing to "break" the rules of the game? How about "bend" the rules? Or maybe ignoring them altogether so you can achieve real results?

On this episode of A New Direction Retired Navy SEAL Marty Strong joins me to get outside of the norm, disrupt standard thinking and embrace change, and bolster creativity.

Marty's book, "Be Different: How Navy SEALs and Entrepreneurs Bend, Break, or Ignore the Rules to Get Results!" is a mindset changer.

Marty Strong takes examples of his different roles as a Navy SEAL combat veteran, and instructor, and his different roles as a Business owner and Entrepreneur and trains us how to start thinking differently.

And that is the crux of this book.  Think differently, and in order to think differently one must think creatively.

To begin thinking creatively Marty Strong gives us the history of how it is against our norm to think differently.  We have been conditioned and trained to live by rules, to be obedient.  Not make waves.

However, it is in our wave making creative thinking where we will find the greatest results.  It is where your profits will be.  It is where life takes on purpose and meaning.

Marty also cautions however, that when you start thinking differently, and take action on your thinking get ready for "blowback".  Get ready for the "naysayers".  Get ready to be shunned.  You will need a thick skin.

At the end of it all when your thinking and action is different it is where you will find your authenticity and success.  I highly recommend this book!

Resilience, You, Your Work, and Your Life

More and more people in the workforce including executives are starting to realize the toll that wellness, stress, and severe health issues are taking on their jobs and their families.

We all feel it, and we need answers.  And that is where this week's book Resilience @ Work comes in.

Four people sit around a fire at the beach after taking lessons to learn to surf. These people are as different as you and me and carry with them their different personalities.

First there is Hurry, he is a hard worker, always on the go, but as the waves of work get higher and higher, for every step he takes, he gets blown back by the waves 3 steps back.

Always trying the next "Get Rich Quick" Scheme, he doesn't have the resilience to take the long view.

Then there is Worry, she is filled with anxiety, she feels her life has little meaning and as the bills pile up, she feels she is drowning in the sea of "no hope".

Always worried about her appearance in front of others, she lacks the resilience to be her authentic self.

Next comes Steady, she reads the waves an knows when to paddle and to ride them. She is agile and adaptable. But she was not always that way because she had to do a ton of work on herself to get her to this point.

Finally, there is Ready, the eldest of the four. He found his purpose at a young age, but he neglected it. And after floundering around in the sea of life he finally has come to understand that he had these gifts all along, but simply was not using them.

Do any of these four people sound like you? Perhaps there is a piece of all of them that you can relate to.

In this episode of A New Direction Best Selling Author Simon T. Bailey takes well written book and assessment to help you discover who you are, and how you can help yourself become and live as the authentic person you created to be that will give you the greatest opportunity for success.

Simon T. Bailey's book, "Resilience @ Work: How to Coach Yourself into a Thriving Future" is an insightful book into ourselves through the perspective of 4 people named Hurry, Worry, Steady, and Ready.

Each person has their own story and are in different places in life trying to find their authenticity and purpose.

The book is a powerful allegory, filled with thought provoking moments that enlighten the reader to ask themselves to be more open to where they are at.

As the book journeys on the reader experiences the impact of the fire side discussions between the members of the group and how they each move toward a new direction in their life and future.

This book although very different gave me the feel of the best-selling book "Who Moved My Cheese".  I will say that this book dives much deeper.

In addition, this book also comes with assessments so that you can get sense of who you are in the story and perhaps where you need to get some help and go to work on you.

Great book click here to get your copy of Resilience @ Work by Simon T. Bailey, I highly recommend it!

Your Energy Determines Your Success

Every single day we bring some sort of energy in to our work place, home, and every conversation.

Our energy is rarely if ever neutral. In fact, it typically is either destructive, or constructive. And that energy comes at different levels.

But...what if we could harness the constructive energy, and understand that even destructive energy could have a place and purpose?

And what if we could control the right level of energy that could powerfully influence productivity, change a habit, and increase motivation? Would that interest you?

Well on this episode of A New Direction Best-Selling Author Rebecca Ahmed joins to talk about her latest book The Energy of Success.

It's so good and you are going to walk away with knowledge and tools you never had before.

Rebecca Ahmed's book, "The Energy of Success: Power Up Your Productivity, Transform Your Habits, and Maximize Workplace Motivation" is a fantastic read.

The book is an eye opener, as it helps the reader become more self-aware of what type of energy you are bringing into the lives of others, as well as, what level of energy are you using.

The fact is your energy is either destructive or constructive.  And depending on your level of constructive energy you may not be as constructive as you could be.  Meaning you have some limitations.

As Rebecca Ahmed walks us through the 7 levels of energy from "Safety" to "Climax" we find that we all are in a constant state of growth should we choose to level up, or we can remain stagnant in our energy level and never achieve the level of success we have the potential for.

The book is an outstanding read, full of practical guidance on how to level up your energy.  Order your copy  of The Energy of Success right here!

You Need to Find Your Authenticity to Find Purpose

The famous sociologist Erving Goffman in his dramaturgical theory suggested that we are all actors on a stage, and we wear masks so people will perceive us the way we want them to perceive us.

In today's world and the party that is social media we see more masks as people present themselves behind screens where we often will not see the truth of who they are.

And if we cannot be true to who we are, that is, be authentic, then how can we truly live our purpose? The answer is we cannot.

So many of us do not live a life with purpose, much less on purpose. We simply go through life as if it is purposely living from one vacation to the next.

Isn't it time we lived a life of purpose on purpose? To help us understand how we might do that, we bring in best-selling author Randy Adkins Jr. on this episode of A New Direction. JOIN US Right HERE...and start living your life on purpose.

Randy Adkins book, "Produce on Purpose: Experience Life Being the Real You" is a spiritual and deep look at how your authenticity leads to your purpose.

At the end of each chapter Randy asks some deeper questions to help you along the journey to discover who you really are and what you are created to do.

The big AHA moment is when you realize that you will have a difficulty discovering your purpose if you do not live authentically from your true self.

The book uses the analogy of going to a masquerade party where we all where masks and Randy helps us to remove them and set us on the path.

Like so many people in today's society we are not comfortable in our own skin.  And thanks to the like of social media, we feel pressure to be someone else than we truly are.

Once we live authentically, then pursuing purpose becomes easier, as we are able to look at our God give natural talents, gifts, and abilities that lead to what our mission is and live it intentionally.

Truly an inspiring book, and one that truly begs the questions, "what is life really about and what is my place in it"?

60% of Sales People Never Meet Their Quota...

The Question is "why" and what Can You as a Sales Manager

Do about it?

Well here it is episode 300!

Wow!  I can't believe we have been doing this show for 6 years.  It has been an awesome time.  And you know what?  I LOVE IT!!!

So in this 300th episode we talk sales with our friend Steve Weinberg and his latest book.  Join us!

Did you know that 60% of salespeople never reach their sales quota?

You may think it's 50/50 but in fact most do not make their sales quota. Why?

This is the frustration for many CEO's and sales managers. It is the question of how do we improve our salespeople?

The first look is often and probably should be the sales team manager. They are like a coach of a sports team. They often get too much blame and the eyes of the sale staff, they can get too much credit.

Okay so what does a great sales manager do to help get their sales to excel?

Well in this episode of A New Direction Best Selling Author, Veteran Sales Success Expert and Sales Whisperer (I call him that) Steve Weinberg joins us to get us "Above Quota Sales Managment: Tips and Techniques to Get the Best Out of Your Sales Team".

You will not want to miss Steve's practical insights, from his years of experience and research.

Steve Weinberg's new book, "Above Quota Sales Managment: Tips and Techniques to Get the Best Out of Your Sales Team" is an absolute must read!

The book is a culmination of Steve's successful experience as salesperson who has closed over $500 million dollars in sales, and research in the field.

Above Quota Sales Management is a practical guide and handbook for those who truly want to either change the direction of their sales team or want the best out of them.

The book dives into areas that typical sales books do not.  Talking about the change in what sales managers do, and how the interact with their salespeople, dealing with the personalities of a buyer, understanding the nature of personal assistants who are protecting the decision makers and more!

Great book get your copy from Amazon or wherever books are sold.

I think all of us dream of working for ourselves at some point or another. We all like the idea of being an entrepreneur.

But let's be honest, being an entrepreneur is not easy. In fact it takes a lot of guts, a lot of resilience, sleeplessness nights, and spending a lot of your time alone.

But one of the ways you can get through it is when you are able to talk with the people who have done it and done it successfully.

And that is exactly why we bring best-selling author and entrepreneur Larry Gaynor to A New Direction to give us...well...A New Direction when it comes to being an entrepreneur.

Entrepreneur Larry Gaynor's new book "Take a Chance!  101 Entrepreneurial Lessons for Making it Big" is the perfect book for every entrepreneur regardless of the stage you are in.

Personally, I love books that have numbered lessons and tips.  Each one makes you think and reflect if you are doing the same thing.

What makes this entrepreneur book more powerful, it is written by a person who is in the middle of it, had to build it from the ground up, maintain it, and create a legacy from it.

The book is filled not only with practical and useful tools and tips, but has great stories that help make the lesson really come to life.

14 Mindsets and Behaviors to Live Your Most Successful Life

We all have different definitions of what a successful life looks like. But there are specific ways of thinking and acting that lead to a more successful life.

So why do people not make these changes if that means a more successful life is in store?

It really comes down to one thing...a resistance to change. Sadly we have all developed patterns of thinking, believing, and behaving that even though they may not be good for us...we are reluctant to change.

In this episode of A New Direction Best-Selling Author Rand Selig joins us again to dig deeper into the changes that we all can make to live our most successful life.

From his book "Thriving", this is a show that if you will follow Rand's guidance will lead you to the place you dreamed of being.

Rand Selig's book, "Thriving!: How to Create a Healthier, Happier, and More Prosperous Life" is a complete book into living a truly more successful life.

Thriving! is in my opinion one of the most comprehensive books on how to live a successful life on the market today.

The book covers everything from building your character, to improving your relationship with your self to handling aging and death.

The book also covers how to deal with others, how to manage ourselves and others.  Finding purpose and meaning and so much more!

If you are ready to live a thriving successful life, then you need a copy of Thriving!
