Summary: What do you want people to remember you for? What is your legacy? If you want to create a lasting legacy, every action you take needs to reflect your values. We were playing the short-term game to grow revenue, but we needed to focus on our core values – our ONE thing. There’s a price attached to our values, but there’s also a reward when we stick to them. Jay Papasan, co-author of The ONE Thing, is back to explain how he knew we were making a mistake and to teach you how we corrected course. In this episode you will learn... [0:50] Why your values aren’t really your values unless they cost you something. [1:38] The BIG Mistake we made (that you may be making right now). [2:20] Why the best businesses have a mission and a clear purpose. [8:30] AH-HA Moment: We need to come from a place of value. Your trust is worth infinitely more than your money. [9:34] Why negative interactions can help you identify problems and solve them. [13:04] Clarity matters. Getting clear about your values is a foundational idea that people don’t give enough focus. [14:05] Why there’s no reason to repeat other people’s mistakes. The ONE Thing to Implement From This Episode: Identify what you want your legacy to be. What do you want people to say you stood for? Then reflect on how you are showing up in the world on a daily basis… Do you need to make any adjustments? AWESOME FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU!
