In celebration of our 100th episode on the Rory Vaden show, we have a special guest: my 100-year-old grandma. Her name is Cornelia May Johns, but she goes by Nanny. Nanny was born on September 13, 1913. Her perspective of the world is outstanding. Considering how rare it is for someone to live for 100 years, Nanny shares why she thinks she has lived such a long life and what she wishes for today’s world. I wanted to share her wisdom and world insight with you as a special gift. Enjoy the wise words of a 102 woman from Georgia.

Show Highlights:

The perspective of a 100 year old woman on the world

What would you have to say about this world in 100 years?

“Eat only what you grow. You are what you eat.” – Cornelia Johns

“There was never a question if we were going to church or not, we just got up and went. I still go to the same church I went to when I was three years old.” – Cornelia Johns

“This is a mean world, be kind to one another” – Cornelia Johns

A 100 year old woman shares an inspiring wish for what she wants for the people of today’s world

“I wish there were more good people in the world that do what’s right” – Cornelia Johns

Can you imagine what the world was like in 1913?

We live in a spoiled world. A world of conveniences that we take for granted.

At the end of our lives, we don’t think about the flat tires of life, we think of the ones we love and the full life we lived.

Any problem in relation to one day is a big problem. Any problem in relation to eternity is no problem.

Rory shares the Perspective Principle of Faith (6th chapter of Take The Stairs)– our ability to have peace is directly proportionate to the term of our perspective

Show highlights:

Even today’s chronic over-achievers are procrastinators @TheArtofCharm

Everything you know about time management is wrong @Rory_Vaden

There is a big difference between waiting to do something because you don’t feel like it and waiting to do something because it’s not the right time.

People are still evaluating their tasks based on importance and urgency but not significance @Rory_Vaden

If importance is how much something matters, and urgency is how soon does it matter, then significance is how long it’s going to matter @Rory_Vaden

There is nothing about prioritizing that creates more time @Rory_Vaden

Multipliers understand that time management isn’t just logical, it’s emotional.

Rory shares the difference between classic procrastination and procrastinating on purpose

Success is no longer related to the amount of tasks you complete, but the significance of those tasks @Rory_Vaden

The way wealthy people think about money is the exact same way multipliers think about time. You can either spend it and never get it back or invest it.

Rory discusses the Focus Funnel

Your highest value to others is to be your highest self @Rory_Vaden

Doing something early is simply taking something from tomorrow, bringing it into today and adding the risk of unexpected change cost

Leadership isn’t about getting things done right, leadership is about getting things done through other people @AndyStanley
