Clarity Compressed with Paul J. Daly

There is so much pressure to find meaning it what it is that we do on a daily basis.

Sometimes, this pressure can even convince ourselves that our “why” is something that isn’t true. Today I’m sharing a short interview I did of my friend Dan Moore.

Dan is the CEO of tech company, Vistadash, Author of Do Moore, Get More and is getting ready to deliver his very first TEDx talk in Roseville, CA on August 7th. The tile of his talk is, “Is Your Why A Lie?”

We talk about the lies we tell ourselves and how to get to the the truth at the bottom. I hope it brings some CLARITY to your week.

It has been QUITE a while since I’ve been able to do an in-person interview. That’s why I’m beyond excited to share this conversation with the one an only Glenn Lundy. Yes, he has the #1 morning show in the country, Rise and Grind, where 10’s of 1000’s gather every morning at 5:30am to make an impact. Yes, he is on a mission to help others see their responsibility to make an impact. Yes, he really does have 8 kids!

I hope you can siphon from some of Glenns energy today as we have some laughs and talk about what is truly meaningful. Hint: It has nothing to do with your social media feed :)  

Go get that CLARITY this week!

Why is the day before vacation SO productive? When I’m about to take time off, I become more focus, get off to a better start in my day, and seem to check important things off the todo list in record pace. What gives?

I’ve always wondered why I don’t get that much done during regular weeks so I spent some time being more thoughtful about why. I share what I arrived at in this weeks episode. 

Now go get productive with all that CLARITY!

I tend to be a little different. Sometimes, I even go as far as ending sentences with prepositions, just because. I wear a flat brim and Nikes while talking to a room full of people in suits. You know what? It works.

The reason it works for me and not for others is because I’m leaning into the things that are authentically me while still doing the work to practice empathy for those I’m trying to communicate with.

It’s not a perfect science, but I’ve definitely been practicing it for quite a while now. I hope sharing my experience frees you to lean into your style more. Because that’s what we need more of…authentic people adding creative flavor to our everyday home and work lives.

In an unprecedented moment in Clarity Compressed history, we have a second consecutive episode about…a book. This week's book, The Innovation Stack by Square Co-founder Jim McKelvey. If you are a Creative, an Entrepreneur, or BOTH, I couldn’t recommend this more. 

I share my takeaways and mostly, the encouragement to my fellow entrepreneurs and creators that the AUDACITY to do something new and release it into the world is a brave thing indeed. 

Keep doing it! 

Audacity takes CLARITY. Pursue both.

Are you the type of person who moves away from the things that you find boring? Of course you are! On this week’s episode, I tell the story of how the decision to pick up a “boring” book late one night before boarding a flight from JFK to Syracuse changed my life. 

I had been running my business for over a decade and didn’t realize how my lack of perspective and understanding of profit was hindering my ability to take care of people. In hindsight, I can clearly see how that ignorance could have been devastating if left unchecked. 

We all have our areas of weakness, blindness, and maybe just boredom. My hope is that this story will help you get prospective on yours and provide the CLARITY to move forward. 

Pursue Clarity,

Paul

The Podcast is coming at you live from Tampa, FL this week. I delivered a keynote at the very first large event held in the Tampa Convention Center since the start of the pandemic. Let me just say… IT WAS AWESOME!!!

There has been so much uncertainty of what a post-covid world would look like when it comes to conferences and other live events. Let met be the first to tell you…there are GOOD things ahead.

I hope this overview (including some great footage from the experience) encourages you as the world begins to open up.

Keep connecting on a HUMAN level and keep pursuing that clarity ,

Paul

I hope your week is off to an amazing start doing meaningful work. If you don’t feel like it has been, it’s not too late to turn it around!

May the momentum of the great reopening continue 👊🏻🤟🏻

On this weeks episode, I get personal about what I’ve learned from 19 years of being married to my bae, the beautiful and truly amazing, Sara Daly.

SPOILER ALERT, a big part of what I’ve learned has to do with a deep, deep selfishness that the world around regularly did (and continues to) preach in my ear. I internalized it like a champ…and almost let that lie destroy my marriage. By God’s grace, that didn’t happen. 

Here’s the punchline, I’m not the most important person. Far from it. Progress is a windy road. 

Grace is the grease in the wheels, and together, is most definitely better. 

Never straight, always forward,

Paul

Success leaves clues. In today’s case, our guest is spelling them out a little more clearly. I had the privilege of sitting with LinkedIn Influencer and Digital Marketing Expert, Shay Rowbottom :high_brightness: Shay’s efforts on Facebook garnered billions (with “B”) views for her clients and she translated those learnings to LinkedIn.

We talk about the real opportunity is on LinkedIn and she dishes secrets that helped her get to 600,000+ followers on the platform. Regardless of where you are on your execution, there is something to learn in this episode. 

Check it out: We’re releasing 2 versions of this episode. The audio only version is a long-form conversation with a lot more nuance on the topics. The video version is a separate conversation we recorded specifically to fit in the 10 minute limitation of LinkedIn video.

I hope this conversation with Shay gives you the perspective and CLARITY you need to take the right next steps.

Pursue Clarity, 

Paul

Clarity Fam, 

The last business trip I went one before the lockdown was to Nashville to spend the day with NYT Bestselling Author Donald Miller and a small group of fellow entrepreneurs. We were gathered to pilot a new course on Mission Statement. 

I’ll spare you all the details, but the bottom line is that I was able to distill down my core belief in business. It has become my agency’s vision and a message that is deeply personal. Here it is…business is more meaningful when people connect on a human level.

The second people start to feel like they’re involvement with you is without meaning, they being to drift. This is true for both your clients and your teams. 

As it turns out, people like it when they are able to be…people. 

Pursue Clarity, 

Paul
