Live Fit, Ignite Change

What does it really mean to live an extraordinary life, and are you living one?

In this episode, I walk you through "The Extraordinary Race," a live experience I led for attendees at the DLP Capital Extraordinary Impact Family event. Think 'The Amazing Race' meets a fitness competition with Survivor-style challenges, and most importantly participants answered questions on how to improve in each area of life.

Families and friends formed teams to race around the resort through eight stations. Each one was built around a single question from each of the 8 areas of life: Faith, Family, Friends, Fitness, Finances, Fulfillment, Freedom and Fun.

You'll hear why "insight without implementation doesn't change anything," the executive who traded alcohol for purpose after asking "résumé or eulogy," and the simple two-step practice to close the gap in the one area holding you back most.

• Why KPIs may be even more important for your body than they are for your business
• How to increase goal achievement rates from 35% to 95%
