Information isn’t the gap between failure and success—action is. Path for Growth’s 1-on-1 coaching helps you create a plan and execute on what matters most for your business. Apply today at pathforgrowth.com/coaching.

There are 6 things you need to focus on to gain freedom from urgency; in part one, we covered:
1.   Margin: leave more time than you think you need for the things that matter; frenzy is a choice.
2.   Intentionality: instill a sense of intent; in the absence of intentionality, urgency reigns supreme.
3.   Boundaries: make sure that there are banks to your river; boundaries are the price of impact.

In part two, we will cover:

4.   Systems: creating scalable processes for doing things in a systemic way
5.   Humility: having an accurate view of oneself
6.   Endings: leaders understand the value of ending things proactively
The price of impact is sustained focus
The enemy of sustained focus is unending urgency
·Freedom is a learned skill
Your freedom is a reflection of your attitude
4. Systems: creating scalable processes for doing things in a systemic way

Why should you create a system?
You need to establish systems if you want to create workflow consistency and reliability
A business without systems is a nightmare for their customers
When should you create a system?
Any time you repeatedly do something the same way because it's the best way to do it

How to create a system?
Do the task, no matter the scale, a big workflow, or a mundane task.
Document the process, write it clearly and concisely in a bullet point format
Delegate the task, hand it off to a team member
5. Humility: having an accurate view of oneself

As a leader, your desire to appear important often conflicts with the work that is important.

Three truths about you
You can’t do it all
You are really easily distracted
You like to be recognized and celebrated
What humility does:
Establishes priorities and awareness of limitations
Minimizes distraction proactively
Accepts that important work is often unseen
Books on humility
Humility by Andrew Murray
Freedom of Self Forgetfulness by Tim Keller
Humilitas by John Dixon
6. Endings: leaders understand the value of ending things proactively
Practice proactive endings.
Necessary Endings by Henry Cloud
Questions to help practice proactive ending
What are the things on your schedule or filling your time that are good but will never be best?
What is sick or unhealthy and not showing signs of getting better?
What are the things that if you're honest with yourself have been dead for a while, you're just afraid to admit it?

Our whole team is rooting for you. We want to see you win!
Remember, my strength is not for me; your strength is not for
you; our strength is for service.

August 31, 2021Creative Callings with Amber Williams
Information isn’t the gap between failure and success—action is. Path for Growth’s 1-on-1 coaching helps you create a plan and execute on what matters most for your business. Apply today at pathforgrowth.com/coaching.

Amber Williams owns a brand strategy and messaging organization. She leads a team of people who work with businesses on their branding. She is one of the most creative people we work with and she has such a great attitude and perspective. When we wanted to sit down and clarify Path for Growth’s brand, we sat down with Amber for a brand strategy session and it was fantastic. Amber is passionate about helping people unleash their creative calling and we are so excited for you to join this conversation with her.
Let’s start by hearing the story of how Amber’s creative calling came to be (2:48)
Sometimes the reason we reach a destination we’re not happy with is a lack of courage. Did you meet resistance when you changed paths? (9:07)
Any creative step demands boldness and conviction. Where did that come from for you? (12:09)
Do you think everyone has a creative calling that is manifested in different ways? (15:31)
There’s a relationship between creativity and faith, isn’t there? (18:27)
Saying “creative leader” is redundant - if you are a leader, you must be creative. I’d love for you to dive deeper on that. (24:18)
When we think about vision we often picture a slightly different version of what we’ve already seen. What are the disciplines or practices for regaining creativity for our vision? (26:48)
I learned from songwriters that there’s an important shift in creative work - a shift from creating things for people out there to creating things for me. There’s something in that mindset when it comes to calling, isn’t there? (31:51)
If your definition of success is whether you did what God called you to, outside opinions are irrelevant aren’t they? (35:02)
One of the myths to dispel about calling is that it’s convenient. Can you speak to the relationship between calling and action? (35:55)
The risk we run in the journey of growth is plateauing at ‘adequate mastery’. Can you speak to that? (39:09)
Describe for us what your creative calling is and how it expresses itself through your business (45:18)
Let’s talk about the relationships between the words we use and the brand we create. Can you speak on the power of brand and why leaders should focus on their brand? (49:21)
Can you speak to how teams can take the heartbeat of the founder and bring it to life? (55:53)
Speak to the relationship between brand and story, specifically why it’s important to weave your story into the brand (59:56)
We did a team branding session with Amber. Can you speak to the value of getting the team engaged to inform your brand? (1:08:12)

Information isn’t the gap between failure and success—action is. Path for Growth’s 1-on-1 coaching helps you create a plan and execute on what matters most for your business. Apply today at pathforgrowth.com/coaching.

You can't do it all when you're in a frantic frenzy. You are someone that needs freedom from urgency. You need to go on this path to finding freedom from urgency. In the first of a two-part series on Freedom from Urgency, we cover these three things you need to focus on:
Margin: Leave more time than you think you need for the things that matter. Frenzy is a choice.
Intentionality: Instill a sense of intent. In the absence of intentionality, urgency reigns supreme.
Boundaries: Make sure that there are banks to your river. Boundaries are the price of impact.
Proactive questions to ensure intentionality:
What needs to be done?
What time do I need to be done?
What needs to be accomplished by that time?
What will get in our way? How do we address that on the front end?
What a person with boundaries knows:
Good things end
Leaders have limits
Every "yes" is also a "no."
A person who struggles with boundaries should focus on
Avoiding making emotional commitments
Evaluating your calendar ahead of time
Set reasonable expectations

August 03, 2021Effective Onboarding
Information isn’t the gap between failure and success—action is. Path for Growth’s 1-on-1 coaching helps you create a plan and execute on what matters most for your business. Apply today at pathforgrowth.com/coaching.

Onboarding creates an opportunity for leaders to maximize the effectiveness of their teams.

Impact-driven leaders provide a clear path for the person to become outrageously successful and connected and immersed in the culture over 90 days. One practical way that you can do this is through the creation of a 90-day checklist that:
Immerses the person in the culture of the organization
Gets them connected to the people
Teaches them what they need to be competent in their role
Makes sure they understand the foundational content of the team
Three signs of a miserable job
Immeasurment: Am I winning, or am I not? And how do I know
Irrelevance: I think that my, my job, or my day to day doesn't connect to anything more significant than the day-to-day
Anonymity: They don't know me. And even if they did know me, they wouldn't care three signs of a miserable job.
Four areas to focus on when you're creating your 90-day checklist:
Culture: the shared values and behaviors of the team. Why do we exist? What do we stand for? Where are we going? Memorize the organization's mission and core values and then teach it to hear how its purpose resonates. The goal is to have new team members feel emotionally and passionately connected to the mission.
Connection: people want to know that there's a place where they can ask questions, that their team members support them and that they are becoming friends. No one likes to show up to an office where they don't feel seen, known, and heard.
Competency: do everything you can to make sure they have what they need to be successful. Write out a clear KRA's: the three to five areas you need to win to succeed in your role.
Content: choose three to five books as reference material for how you do business. Have specific books that you can point to and say, this is what we believe, and this is the source material that we look to concerning how to do business.

July 27, 2021 Less Distraction, More Respect with Jerold Nichols President of Amber Electric & Path for Growth Coach
Information isn’t the gap between failure and success—action is. Path for Growth’s 1-on-1 coaching helps you create a plan and execute on what matters most for your business. Apply today at pathforgrowth.com/coaching.

College isn’t for everyone; if you can work hard and respect others, you will be set. Jerold proves this with his story in this special interview. A good way to respect others is to treat them the way you want to be treated, and this turns out to be at the center of most leadership books written today. In this interview, Jerold and Alex talk about how to help others find answers to their problems by listening intently and asking good questions, a lot of times, that means touching in regularly (even when things are going good) and getting rid of distractions that get in the way of having an intentional mentoring relationship.

July 20, 2021Evaluate Your Time
Information isn’t the gap between failure and success—action is. Path for Growth’s 1-on-1 coaching helps you create a plan and execute on what matters most for your business. Apply today at pathforgrowth.com/coaching.

Although we believe that time is the most valuable resource we have, we ignore where our time is actually going. If most people treated their money the way they treated their time, they would be dead broke.
What we’re going to do today is to create space and time for intentional evaluation. Because most of the answers you need, you already have, sometimes you need to take the time to think, evaluate, and reflect.
So we're going to think and evaluate and reflect today on the topic of how you are using your time and where you should be using your time.
On a scale of one to 10, where are you compared to capacity, and what is correct for this season?
What habit is your biggest time black hole? (seemingly endless void that lacks structure, aim, or direction) What does healthy look like for that area?
Are you scheduling time for your: 1. Physical health 2. Relationships 3. Spiritual health
What percentage of your work hours are spent in your strength zone? What is correct in this season?
How often do you take part in scheduled intake?
Who's your favorite person to spend time with? What would it look like for them to show up on your calendar 10% more?
Rate the consistency of your morning routine. What should it be for this season?
What is the activity that you do that provides the greatest return for your customers? Is it scheduled?
What is the activity that you do that provides the greatest return for your team? Is it scheduled?
What is the activity that you do that provides the greatest return for your family? Is it scheduled?
What is the activity that you do that provides the greatest return for yourself? Is it scheduled?

Maximize Your Morning

Our whole team is rooting for you. We want to see you win!
