Brandon Fong, founder of www.7figuremillennials.com shares valuable information and insights on building connections that leverage you to the next level.

He offered insights on the REAL framework to use when connecting with anyone.

Respectful

Effortless

Appreciative

Loving

That’s the opposite of being MAD:

Misaligned

Annoying

Draining

On the podcast we spoke of worthiness and how that affects your identity. And we agreed that it’s important to identify who you want to be and begin living into that person and that life. 

In terms of making true connections, think about yourself, others, and the resources that are involved or needed (by you and the other person).

And don’t forget to Appreciate, Value, and End With A Question.

Glad you’re here! You’re going to get a lot out of this. You wouldn’t be opposed to leaving a comment, would you?

When you realize that YOU are the one responsible for the drama in your life, your life changes. There’s only one person who is giving meaning to any given situation that affects you. That’s you. Other people will give meaning to a situation in their own way. Their drama isn’t yours.

Stop making excuses.

Stop using drama to excuse why things didn’t happen in your life.

Choose.

Decide.

Take action based on that decision.

Poof… no drama!

Life Is Better!!!

Your life isn’t static. When you stop moving or stop growing, you’re dying or… dead.

Success isn’t static. Success is very much Dynamic.

What you thought looked like success some time ago may not feel so monumentally amazing now. That’s because you’ve changed along the way. You’ve gained new skills and a new perspective. What felt like it’d be a huge accomplishment just isn’t. It was, but it isn’t.

Think about when you were learning to drive.

There were so many things to keep track of. Now, it all comes by instinct. Our big goals are like that. They’re dynamic in nature, ever changing as the horizon line shows us something new the further away from the safety of the shore we get.

And that’s the good news.

Success IS ever-changing. It needs to be. You’ve grown and what you think of as success must expand with you, your experiences, and your ever-expanding perspective in the world.

It wasn’t unkind. It wasn’t malicious. It was a simple statement - “You’re not doing these things you said were important to you because you just don’t want to do them.”

What? 

You’re not doing the things on your to-do list because you don’t want to do them. It’s that simple.

It could be that your subconscious sees a change as a threat to your identity. Well, in order to grow, you get to shed a bit of who you’ve been.

It could be that the process of doing the thing is just hard.

Well, it might be. You might have to learn to like things that are hard.

Great leaders have coaches that’ll tell them hard things.

We have trusted advisors who can call out our blind spots. And “blind spots” are called that because we can’t see them (even if they seem obvious to others).

Think about what you’ve had on your to-do list and what has and hasn’t gotten done. 

What you’ve done, you did to get accolades or approval from someone else or you’ve done them to make a difference to yourself.

And the things you haven’t done, you have put off because you’re afraid of being judged as being bad at something. Or, it’s hard. Or it’s so new you don’t know where to start. So you haven’t done them because you didn’t want to… didn’t want to feel bad about doing them wrong, perhaps?

Find some help to take the first step.

Do step into the desires that are calling you.

And do follow through with being honest with yourself.

Keep making your magic!

From Montreal to Toronto to Queens to Denver and back to New York City…! Morrison has had some amazing adventures, personally and professionally.

She works for the Warren Law Group, specializing in the cannabis industry. 

Listen in as she shares her life path that includes being told she was supposed to be a lawyer to starting a family, and giving it up when, she so matter of factly states “I realized I was a lesbian.”

That must’ve been quite a revelation having grown up in the pentacostal church. 

But we all change and we all have to follow our paths, our own unique path. 

Having always fought for what’s right, she continues to do so living into serving truth, justice, health, and prosperity.

This one is a must listen!

On the show we also referenced the two-day intensive I run where people learn to step into listening to the whispers. Be sure to check out https://www.ExponentialSuccessSummit.com

We often put off what we want to do for the sake of doing what we “should” do. 

Yes, be responsible.

AND

Listen to your desires. Listen to the subtle call that says, “over here!”

It is possible to do both - be responsible AND do/get/have/be what you want.

It all starts with a decision and the how sorts out.

What’s calling you?

What are you hoping for that you’ve put off?

What’s whispering, “Over Here…!”

The hard stuff is what gets you through to the next level. You’re the one that puts the hard stuff in your path. And if you approach it with gratitude, as something you get to do, and you take on the lessons that get you through it, you will breakthrough to Exponential Success.

This podcast is a reminder of who you are and what you’re capable of.

As with most everything new, it’s hard.

Learning to drive is hard.

Learning a new language is hard.

Letting go of old habits and stepping into an upleveled version of yourself is hard.

You leave something behind.

You learn a new skill.

You gain confidence.

You practice more.

It becomes a part of you.

It’s no longer hard.

From going to the dentist to taking on a new job, relationship, or new way of being… it’s hard, until it’s not.

Just do the thing.

Keep going.

You’ve got this.

And for help along the way, consider a deeper dive.

If you’re leading, though, you need to know that there are blindspots and you’re missing something really important:  each team member has different needs and every team member wants to feel like he/she/they belong. 

Belonging

Flexibility

Freedom

How can you build those into your culture?

What is your next best step to build a true Culture of Caring?

Reflect, then start.

Even if you work for yourself… reflect, then start.

Let’s talk goal setting, for real. Not wishes, but getting stuff done.

Whether you’re guiding your team or guiding yourself, whether you’re managing up, managing down, or focused on your own accomplishments, you need to look at three key things:

1. What were the expectations you have or had about a certain thing (or performance goal)?
2. What outcomes are you getting?
3. What support is needed in order to hit the expectations you have for yourself or others?

It’s just that simple.

Sometimes the support that’s needed is a break. Sometimes it’s a celebration. Sometimes it’s specific guidance from an outside person or coach. Sometimes it’s hiring the right people.

Reflect on those three things and then manage your calendar to allow for the appropriate amount of invested time you need for your goals to actually be met.

And… go!
