Body and health support goals

You've set goals before and watched them fall apart six months later. Maybe you thought you had a solid foundation. Maybe you didn't.

I'm pulling from 25 years of coaching experience and thousands of hours working with people just like you. What I've learned is this: you need a peaceful base before you chase any goal. Six domains of life that have to be balanced first, or everything crumbles.

Think of it like an audio console. Get the levels wrong at the start, and everything downstream is a mess. Get them right, and you can reach for anything.

Featured Story

My daughter invited me to help with the audio at her church. I produce, I direct, I've got the background. So I stepped in.

When you're the audio guy behind that big console, two things are true. You get all the blame. And if you lose control of the balance, you're in serious trouble.

Every service starts the same way. You've got 8, 10, 12 people on stage. The very first thing I do is set the foundation - the input levels for every mic, every instrument. Get that wrong, and everything downstream falls apart. Feedback, hot mess, scary stuff.

I started thinking about how this applies to life. What if we got the levels right from the beginning? What if we balanced everything before chasing the big goals?

That's when the peaceful base concept clicked.

Important Points

Most people fail at goals because their foundation has cracks they don't even know about.

Six domains need balance: time, body, mind, money, relationships, and spirit - in that order.

Get these levels right first, and you can chase the biggest goals without upsetting your peaceful base.

Memorable Quotes

"Time is yours. It's limited in what you have. There's only so much time in the day, and everything you do will take time."

"Financial security provides true choice. It's mobility in life."

"Connections that are nurtured, not sacrificed."

Scott's Three-Step Approach

Take inventory of the six domains and identify where you're out of balance right now.

Fix the small challenges first before setting any big goals for next year.

Maintain that peaceful base as you grow so you don't mess up what you've got.
