The ONE Thing

Do you ever feel like you're working hard... but not getting the results that you deserve? So many of us feel isolated by this feeling, but you are NOT alone. We are sharing a conversation we had with one of you, Lizzie Grant, to demonstrate how common this feeling is. We failed Lizzie, but we called her because we always want to learn from our failures. We never intended for this conversation to be a podcast episode, but it was too inspiring and too valuable not to share with all of you.   The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Get clear on what your priorities really are. Write them down on a sheet of paper. Now ask yourself: What is the minimum amount of time that you need to invest in your top priority to make progress? Don't set the bar too high because, when you start taking action every day, it will become a habit.   In this episode you will learn... [9:00] How taking a break can help you get clarity. [11:30] Why so many of us struggle to control our time (not just you!). [18:00] How you can get clarity on what you want and develop a system that helps you do those things in order of priority.   AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

Many of the members of our Living Your ONE Thing community have asked the same question: How do I discover my purpose? So many people asked us that we decided to sit down with Brian Schoenbaum, Founder & CEO of Vuka Collective, to create an exclusive training video for the ONE thing community. We talked to Brian because he operates on another level and a single purpose drives everything he does: helping people wake up in their personal and professional lives.   We're sharing the audio from that training here because we want you to understand what we're doing for members of our community and consider if it is a good fit for you. If it is, you can go to the1thing.com/membership and try your first week for only $1.   The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Jay Papasan once said, "The path to discovering your purpose begins with getting on the path." Finding your purpose is not a result of following certain steps in order. It is about pausing and finding the space to ask questions: When I walk into a room, what is the positive energy that other people experience? What is my unique genius in the world? How can I be bold? If you want to enlist support and get more training like this, you can join the Living Your ONE Thing community by going to the1thing.com/membership and signing up for a $1 trial.   In this episode you will learn... [11:15] Why going on a journey to discover your purpose is so important (and what the payoff is). [19:40] How you can begin to take action on discovering your purpose. [23:55] How to reveal (and leverage) your unique genius.   AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!

We can cast a big vision for our life, but we often struggle to take daily action.

What's the ONE thing you can do that will make everything else easier or unnecessary? When you look at all of the areas of your life, what's the ONE area you need to focus on first?
