Daily Boost  - Clarity for Life and Work

Building a Peaceful Life


Listen Later

Quitter's Day has passed. The Super Thingy is coming. And you're still standing.

I've been teaching something for years that changes everything. It's called the peaceful base. The idea is simple but powerful: you can't move forward in chaos. You need certain parts of your life settled before you can chase bigger goals.

Today I'm sharing the exact framework I use with my mastermind clients. Six areas. A simple rating system. A way to stay aware of what's working and what needs attention. This is how you build a life that actually feels good.

Featured Story

I just got off a mastermind call where we did something I've been doing for years. We checked in on everyone's peaceful base. These are serious people who get up at 4 a.m. on the West Coast to join me at 7 a.m. Eastern.

One person came in with a minus 10 on financial security. We had to work on that. But most people averaged about a 7 or 7.5 across all six areas. That's the sweet spot.

I don't expect tens across the board. But when you're consistently above a 6 in time, body, mind, money, relationships, and spirit? You're building something real. You're creating the foundation that lets you move forward without blowing up your life.

Important Points

The peaceful base framework helps you identify chaos before it derails your progress toward your bigger goals.

You measure six specific areas on a 1-10 scale: time, body, mind, money, relationships, and your spirituality.

Over time you develop daily awareness that keeps you calibrating throughout the day instead of missing problems.

Memorable Quotes

"It's impossible to move forward in chaos, so you really need certain things in your life settled well before moving."

"Money's not everything, but once you have money you have real options and that freedom provides you true choice."

"When you understand meaning and have a purpose in life, you have an anchor that anchors everything else you do."

Scott's Three-Step Approach

Rate each of the six areas on a 1-10 scale right now to get your current peaceful base snapshot for today's check.

Look for anything below a 6 score because that's exactly where chaos lives and what needs your immediate attention.

Check in weekly to stay aware and calibrate quickly before those small problems become life-disrupting disasters.
