Today’s Big Idea: The purpose of business is not just to make a profit, but to allow people to flourish. Building a business means doing something that increases the ability for others to be involved in your world. Apply these principles to your business or other areas where you have an opportunity to lead and help people grow.

Three suggestions:
When you truly understand how your business makes people’s lives better, then it’s easy to sell your services.
Are you casting a big enough vision? View employee’s as an investment rather than an expense. If you hear your employees repeating your vision back to you, that’s success.
Be willing to let your business grow big enough so that other people can fit their vision into it. Don’t focus on your comfort, focus on providing opportunity for others.
Hiring quality people and leading them well will cause incremental growth.

Today’s Big Idea:
Most people want better relationships and yet we often don’t know how to get there. Four practical steps to building better relationships.

Steps to improve your key relationships:
1. Time - good relationships take time. Spend time with the key people in your life. 2. Communication - be intentional about communicating with the key people in your life. 3. Know about people: use social media to your advantage to move beyond small-talk. 4. Bring something to the relationship: don’t be a taker only.
Who you are in your personal life affects your professional life. Your skill set in your job will only grow as much as you grow in your personal life.
Adam Grant’s book, “Give and Take” finds that strategic givers are more successful and happy than people who just match, and much more than people who only take.
Today, do one thing to strengthen a relationship. If you don’t know where to start, just write one hand-written note to someone who would appreciate it. It’s so simple, but is one of the most powerful tools in building relationships.

Today’s Big Idea:
What’s the one thing I can do for my personal life? It might be time to get a hobby.

Some suggestions on how to “re-create” your personal life through recreation and rest.
1. Engage in a hobby or leisure activity that honors your personality.
2. Respect and engage in the rest/work cycle.
3. Engage in reading.
If you aren’t healthy, you’re going to have a hard time getting others healthy.
Find a hobby or leisure activity that fills you up, gives you energy and takes your mind off the constant push of productivity.
Recognize and honor the rest/work cycle that has endured for generations. We’ve really lost track of the rest/work cycle. Cultivate habits of daily, weekly, and seasonal rest. Take a step back, in order to take ten steps forward.
Recognize your personality in how you spend your leisure time. Look at where you get your energy. Do you get it from being alone or from being with people? Do you process internally or externally? It’s important to be intentional about how you spend your leisure time.
Wealthy and successful people are often asked what superpower they would like to have. Bill Gates and Warren Buffet both said they wish they could read and comprehend faster. When we read a lot, we learn through the experience of others. Reading is such a valuable tool for plotting our own experience against the experience of others.

Most people agree that eating right and exercising are important to physical health, but actually, getting enough sleep is the first step in getting your body healthy. Lack of sleep causes impaired performance, higher rates of illness, injury and overeating.
How to get adequate, quality sleep: 1. Go to bed at the same time every night. 2. Give yourself 7-9 hours. 3. Don’t sleep in.
“Anything worth doing, is worth doing poorly at first” - Joel Salatin. Keep going after it. Don’t let failure derail you.
Eating: Have the right food on hand. When we are hungry our willpower is the lowest. Eliminate the choice to eat something bad at home.
Exercise: Don’t try to be an olympic athlete. What’s the best form of exercise? The one you will do. When is the best time? When you will do it. Use the power of peer pressure. Join a class. Get a trainer.

Living a life that is just for you lack’s purpose. Our purpose is to bring value to the world. When you know your life purpose, you know the manner in which you are bringing value to the world. What is the one thing you can do this week to affirm the value that I bring to the world?
Common practices that encourage growth: 1. Daily habit of prayer and meditation. 2. Reduce stress. 3. Connect with a faith community.

Being a person of integrity means being the same person, wherever you go and in whatever circumstances. Social media is changing the way we view privacy. We can’t compartmentalize - each area of our life touches the other. Integrity = Integrated. Learn the process of growth and you can apply it to any area of your life. This is about growing you.
Draw 7 circles around in the shape of a clock and label:
1. Rate yourself numerically on the 7 areas of your life represented by the circles. (See worksheet) 2. Focus on the area you scored highest in to move it from good to great for a win. 3. Focus on the area you scored lowest in to see the largest amount of growth

Josh had a recent breakthrough related to goals (a topic he’s had a life-long struggle with). His new team keeps saying “the goal is non-negotiable.” How does that work?
Many think that having a goal and not accomplishing it is bad. Goals aren’t an accomplishment - they are a way to get you to think differently.
Are your goals big enough that you’re never going to hit them?
Our goals are going to help us determine our actions.
Goals need to be within bounds (ethical and physical).
Goals need to be sustainable.

This Podcast episode isn't just "based on a true story" - it's Josh's true story. It's a story of a 30 year old water heater, and what Josh actually did in the midst of some real chaos.
Although things were crazy, he still had the chance to ask the ONE question. And in that process, found his creativity sped up. Josh saw his water heater was dead and, while watching his son taking in the chaos too, wondered "what is he seeing?"
He realized, it wasn't an issue of turning off the water, it was an issue of "turning off the water with my son."
The next action can make the next domino easier ... or harder.
