What We Learned

Keys to a Good Launch

  • Internal: Define success for you
  • External: Empathy and Humility

    • What Do You Do to Maintain Your Empathy?

    • Create margin.
    • Recognize where people are going to get their information.
    • Prioritize effectiveness over efficiency.

      • Increasing Your Capacity: Delegate

      • There is someone who loves what you hate doing. There is someone who is good at what you hate doing.
      • You have to own the fact that there is something you can get rid of.

        • How Do You Help People Clarify Where They Are Going?

        • Find out where you are.
        • Vision

          • Why Is It Tough For Us to Be Honest With Ourselves?

          • We romanticize the details and view ourselves as the hero.
          • We are discouraged by where we are.

            • How Do You Identify Where People/Organizations Currently Are?

            • Personality Assessments

              • You need an unbiased outside voice.

                • Inbound Mindset

                • There is someone looking for what you do right now.
                • It's up to us to position ourselves so they can find us.

                  • How Do People Get Stuck?

                  • Fear
                  • Ignorance
                  • Limited resources
                  • Lack of clarity

                    • How Can You Get Unstuck?

                    • Look at the destination and determine what you need to do.
                    • Act.
                    • Ask, "who can help me?"

                      • Lessons Learned From Oprah, Dave Ramsey, and Tony Robbins

                      • Oprah: You are always more capable than you think you are. You can build a strong personal brand by being a curator.
                      • Dave Ramsey: The value of taking a "Ready. Fire. Aim." approach.
                      • Tony Robbins: The power of staying committed to your purpose. Stay close to your customers.

                        • What Are You Learning Right Now?

                        • Information is designed to be applied.
                        • Plan out your calendar 12 months in advance.
