It's gotta be fun.

Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.

I wanted to talk about this concept because the last yesterday's talk, we were discussing how a person can kind of fall into workaholic workaholism, I guess you would call it, you know, when you're just grinding, grinding, grinding, it's like you're never, never gonna stop.

And it's like you're trying to reach something. But pretty soon you forget what you're trying to reach, and so forth.

There's a lot of reasons why we do this and alone. And oftentimes, it's to stave off the depression that comes as soon as you slow down.

I think a lot of the depression comes from not having a very clear direction of where you're going. A very measurable idea of when you get there, also being very grateful about what you already have what you've already achieved.

Then there are just a couple of other pieces that come into it. I just picked it up, I may have had this book here for a year sitting here. I think this book came out in 05 I think I read this is, How to Be Number One In Your Business by Blair Singer.

And it's a quick book. I mean, this is just as quick as my book, 9 Ways Amazon-Proof Your Business. While I'm mentioning it, if you haven't read, 9 Ways to Amazon-Proof Your Business, you can go get a copy on Amazon or wherever they sell books. But you can also get a free downloadable version over at AmazonProofBook.com.

But we won't discuss that you watch any of my other videos to go into deeper amounts on that or you can go check it out.

But this one this how to be number one in your business. The subtitle is the secret to attract, retain and nurture a team that will make a lot a lot of money. And this is Blair Singer. He's worked with Robert Kiyosaki and the Rich Dad organization.

His big thing is his teaching about sales, and so forth. And I think a lot of this has had to do with him putting together a sales team if I remember, and I was just leafing through it to try and remember some of the concepts in here.

And one of the things in chapter two, he says it's got to be fun. There's a simple idea there, that's actually pretty deep. One thing I found is that most business owners, most people that are the boss, most people that get into this grind, grind, go, go mood, or rut, we should I say, if you get stuck in that situation, chances are you do not have built-in fun into your system into your business into your day to day life.

You don't have fun built-in and honestly, you need to schedule it.

If you've ever heard that concept of scheduling fun, outside of business, you know scheduling extracurricular activity. Scheduling family time, all that stuff. That's really important.

But I'm talking about within the business itself, the workday has to have elements of fun. At some point, you have to and you have to do it purposefully. You have to build it in you have to set a time to take everyone out, to go to a movie or to go have lunch or something, you have to build these things and you got to meet at somebody's house.

Every other month or so you got to do something, you go mini-golfing, I mean, do something that's awkward, strange, fun. You're fun we'll come along as soon as people get out of the norm. Just go and do something unusual.

And if you aren't surrounded by fun people,
