April 30, 2025 | Episode 5083

Host: Scott Smith

Episode Description

Ever apply for something you wanted, then complain when you got it? In this episode, Scott shares a recent conversation with his daughter about her early morning fitness classes that sparked an important realization. Sometimes we self-inflict challenges, then question our decisions! Scott offers three powerful questions to help you understand what you truly want and the fastest path.

Featured Story

Scott's daughter recently started teaching fitness classes that require her to wake up at 4:45 am. While she loves impacting people, she complained about the early mornings. This led Scott to reflect on how we often pursue things out of passion but forget to consider the practical aspects. Whether it's a business or a job, understanding your true motivation helps you make better decisions and stay focused on what matters.

Key Takeaways

Everything in life ultimately comes down to the people around you and the money you have - it's essential to be honest about why you're working.

Even when you're serving others through your work, it's still a job, and acknowledging this helps maintain perspective.

The right questions can reduce confusion and help you identify the fastest, most straightforward path to your goals.

Memorable Quotes

"It's one thing to say 'I'm helping people, I'm impacting people,' but service is hard when you're in service of others."

"In my business coaching, I will tell you, it is not about spreadsheets or marketing - it's all about mindset. 99% of all business coaching I do is keeping your head in the game."

"The empire will be built, but right now you need to build a road to the empire. You don't need a superhighway - a dirt road or path would be fine today."

Scott's Three-Step Approach

Ask yourself: "What exactly do you want from your business or job?" Get clear on what it should provide you and when.

Determine the absolute minimum necessary for you to reach your goal - keep it simple and know when you succeed.

Identify the fastest, easiest path to get it done - when you focus on the next step, you'll get there.
