Wouldn’t we all like to know what is essential and what is frivolous in our lives? Maybe we think we subconsciously know, but I for one would be interested in getting it all out on the table. This is our habits show and our muse today is Jonni Pollard, founder of the to ranked meditation app, One Giant Mind. He was our guest in show 671 where we discussed, how to free ourselves from...ourselves! No surprise that a mainstay habit of Jonni’s is meditating. But it was the financial spoke where he discussed asking himself what was essential and what was frivolous. I just saw the concept as being relevant to all the spokes and all of life. I also appreciated the guiding light of his Career spoke being another question he asks himself, “How can I be of best service?” Mentally? Another questions he asks, “How can I be better?” It’s a show of brilliant questions. Check out Jonni’s podcast, One Giant Mind.

Everyone at some point has left a light on in their car and come out the next morning to a car that should be ready to roll, and the battery is dead. You have to jump start it. We do this with ourselves a lot by going to be with some lights left on that keep us from quality sleep, and we wake up need a jump start. A blaring alarm, maybe our spouse has to push out of bed, we need coffee immediately, etc… Even with the jump start, you’re generally lagging the whole day. There are so many things that go into this and I’m going to hit a big one, with on add on. For disclosure, I sent this message to some of my kids the other day, as it was on my mind. Now I bring it to you. Drive with me a moment.

1 Quick & Easy Way To Help You Get Quality Sleep - Turn Your Internal Light Off

We are driven to connect. And be connected to. There has never been more communication available and coming at us than today. And yet we have more isolation and loneliness than ever. It’s similar to food. In America we are massively overfed. We are bigger and heavier than ever. And yet we are chronically undernourished. We eat but don’t nourish. Likewise, we communicate, but we don’t connect. What is the difference? And what can we do? Drive with me a moment.

How To Connect Instead Of Merely Communicate & 3 Steps To Connect On A Podcast

Here is a business story, that is really a humanitarian story, but overall is an incredible story of drive I believe you’ll be inspired and equipped by. The story would make a great movie, and since my guest actually roomed with Matt Damon in college, it just might become one. James Rhee’s parents migrated to America from Korea. James was driven to excel and please his parents, so he got into Harvard. But he really wanted to teach, so he then taught high school for a couple years. Some of his most rewarding years he says. But then he went back to Harvard and graduated from law school. But he realized he didn’t want to be a lawyer so he became an investment banker. He did well, but realized he didn’t want to do that either. So he worked in private equity. He did well. Very well. He appreciated helping businesses, but didn’t like how disconnected he was from everything. So he quit and didn’t know what to do. Then he ends up in an unlikely place - as CEO of Ashley Stewart, a fashion retailer that served plus-size, predominantly middle- and lower-income Black women. And the company was at its end. The death knell had sounded. James came in for what was supposed to be six months because he felt an obligation to help. He ended up there for seven years with a miracle turnaround story that he’s now described in a book called Red Helicopter: Lead Change With Kindness. You'll hear a very personal story of James' drive, from healthy to unhealthy. You'll hear about how Ashley Stewart went from death to stardom because it became a place and brand of belonging, not fashion. You'll hear how success came, not from communication, but connection. And most of all you'll hear how goodwill is the bridge to not only wild success, but abiding joy. Today James Rhee teaches at Howard University, MIT Sloan School of Management, and Duke Law School. His TED Talk and Dare to Lead interview with Brené Brown have reached millions. It was an honor to spend a couple hours with him and as you’ll hear at the end of the show we’re planning a t-shirt campaign together to advocate for the “analog life!”

James Rhee | How To Turn A National Chain Store & A Life Around By Being Kind - And Doing Some Math

In our quest for health and wellness and looking at the food we eat, how we exercise and sleep and addressing our mental health, we often miss two primary areas of consumption; what we are breathing and drinking. I just want to trust that overall what I breathe and drink is ok and my body can handle it. It can, but it’s not optimal. My body can exist on cheetos and coke as well, but it won’t be optimal. I want my physical body at it’s best to support my overall drive. To dig into these subjects I brought in an expert, Peter Spiegel. Peter worked on an organic farm. He taught meditation. He learned Chinese medicine and taught it to doctors in London. He started and sold a natural foods company. From all this he ultimately devoted himself to clean air and water and I wanted to know why. You’re about to get a master class in the air we breathe and the water we drink, in all forms, and why you’ll best serve your drive to clean them both. We spend most of our time talking about air and water, but you’ll also hear us mention his products to address both. Peter founded a company called Ideal Living which provides the AirDoctor for cleaning your air and AquaTru which cleans your water. If you’re interested you can head to idealliving.com/DRIVE to receive up to 40% off air purifiers and 20% off water purifiers! Exclusive to podcast listeners, you will also receive a free 3 year extended warranty on any AirDoctor, which is an additional $84 value. Get the special offer by going to I-D-E-A-L-L-I-V-I-N-G dot com slash D-R-I-V-E. Up next, Peter and I dive into the truth about the air you breathe and water you drink!

Clean Air & Water Crusador Peter Spiegel | How To Protect What You Breathe & Drink

For some reason unknown to me, narcissism is the new label slapped on anyone we feel is being selfish. And yes, I’ve had it attributed to me. And I feel it about others as well. In an article from the Center for Neurocognitive Excellence, they way a simple definition of narcissism would be an over-preoccupation with ourselves or being overly desirous of the praise or admiration of others to the extent that it negatively impacts our relationships. I’ve not met anyone who doesn’t display these tendencies from time to time. But if we really want the praise or admiration of others, but want to positively impact ourselves most, and positively impact others, we’d choose kindness. It proves to be the ultimate weapon. Drive with me a moment to explain how you can serve yourself best, from getting praise to making more money to finding more romance, by being kind.
