The Double Win

As the saying goes, "Knowledge is power". Continually learning and seeking to optimize your knowledge is one of the marks of an outstanding leader. With that in mind, it is time to explore not just what we think, but how we think and, even more crucially, how we can optimize our thinking.

In this episode, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller talk with Joel Miller about five key insights to help optimize your thinking. It's all in their new book, Mind Your Mindset: The Science That Shows Success Starts With Your Thinking. After that, Joel speaks with Kevin Jennings, one of the amazing coaches at Business Accelerator. Kevin talks about how he applies these ideas around thinking into his coaching.

We all have a voice that lives inside of our head. It's called The Narrator. The Narrator tells the story of your life, as it happens, and then that story will point you into making certain decisions. Sometimes those decisions are good. Sometimes they're bad. Since the implications of what The Narrator tells you are so huge, then there's only one thing you can do: figure out if The Narrator is telling the truth.

To celebrate the launch of their new book, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller share ways that you can challenge the negative stories from The Narrator and then put it to work for you.

Make sure to pick up your copy of Mind Your Mindset: The Science That Shows Success Starts with Your Thinking at www.mindyourmindsetbook.com or your favorite book retailer.

Every day you are confronted thousands of decisions - often as many as 35,000. Everything that you do is a choice, but if you spent one second for every decision, then you'd spend almost 10 hours a day just making decisions. That doesn't even include the time it would take to actually accomplish the things you choose. Luckily, the human brain has the ability to eliminate thousands of those decisions through a very simple tool: habits.

If you can become aware of your habits, then you'll be able to evaluate the ones that are serving you, the ones that are hurting you, and the ones that you should pick up. In this episode, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller discuss the habits that they're currently working on. After that, Joel Miller speaks with Courtney Baker about two habits that are a vital part of the Full Focus System that many people simply miss.

Everybody likes to win. As a business leader, winning probably includes successfully guiding your team into a profitable quarter. Here at Full Focus, we believe in the Double Win where you win at work and succeed at life.

But, it's important to know that one of the best ways for a business owner to win is for their employees to win. If all of your employees are winning in their jobs, then the company is in the best position possible to meet all of its goals.

In this episode, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller will share six ways to empower your employees to win. After that, Joel Miller speaks with Helen Kupp, co-founder of Future Forum about how to create more employee engagement through flexible work environments.

While it might seem cliche, the new year is a perfect opportunity to set goals both personally and professionally. This is due to something called the "Fresh Start Effect". This idea might seem more intuitive than quantitative, but the reality is that there is a lot of data behind the effectiveness of the Fresh Start Effect. Understanding how to harness the new year could be the difference between a good year and a great year.

In this episode, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller offer you four steps for making positive change happen in the new year. After that, Joel Miller speaks with author and economist, Dr. Katy Milkman, about the Fresh State Effect and how to use it in your leadership.

Most people don't follow through on the goals that they set for themselves. This is common knowledge. But the more important question is: Why are people struggling to achieve their goals? It turns out that some of it has to do with how we structure our goals and some of it has to do with our motivation for choosing those goals in the first place.

In this episode, Megan and Michael talk about five mistakes that people make when setting goals and how to move forward. Then, Joel speaks to author Luke Burgis about the importance of how we're motivated.

If there's one thing that a leader is good at, then it's probably making lists. More often than not, it's a to-do list of tasks that you'll probably never finish and make you feel like you'll never catch up (because you always add more than you can check off). But, what if there were lists that made you feel good?

In this episode, we're branching out from the to-do list and providing leaders with a few other lists that might provide clarity and increase happiness and motivation. First, Megan and Joel talk about the lists that they have found the most valuable as business leaders. Then, Joel speaks with Jeremy Adam Smith, the editor of Greater Good Magazine and co-editor of The Gratitude Project. Jeremy shares some important research on gratitude and Joel makes the case for making a gratitude list.

As a business leader, you undoubtedly have ideas and beliefs that you put into practice every day as you seek to guide your organization into the future. No matter how certain you are of these guiding beliefs, it's important to question them: How accurate are they? If they're not accurate, then how might those beliefs be hurting your business?

In today's episode, we explore limiting beliefs as they apply to both the marketing and HR departments of your organization. More importantly, we also offer some actionable liberating truths that your teams can use to grow.

First, Megan Hyatt Miller speaks with Marissa Miller, Director of Marketing at Full Focus. Marissa shares five limiting beliefs that marketing professionals experience. After that, Megan talks to Full Focus Chief Experience Officer, Erin Perry, about how limiting beliefs show up in HR and Operations.
