7:59

8:01

information. Subscription required price varies based

8:03

on product and subscription plan. Think

8:06

of it like a... Okay, here

8:08

people talk about the one thing, right? Do one thing

8:10

and get rid of everything else. That's

8:12

it. But and philosophically I guess it makes

8:14

sense. Yes, if I could do one thing but Scott how the

8:16

hell can I do one thing? Have you

8:18

seen my life? I got the kids,

8:21

I got the dog, I got the job, I

8:23

can't do one thing. You're missing the point. You're

8:26

missing the point. You're never gonna do just one thing. It's

8:28

not gonna happen. So here's the thing. If you have a

8:30

thousand things you're trying to figure out what to do and

8:32

get done and try to make sense of your life. So

8:34

just imagine you have like a maybe a an upside down

8:36

pyramid. Maybe a funnel. It looks like a funnel. So

8:39

on the top is all these thousand things and you're trying

8:41

to manage them all and you're trying to filter down to

8:43

the bottom and get them out of that funnel. And

8:45

okay then I'll focus on that. That's

8:48

what you're trying to do. I have learned in my life. I

8:51

have not studied this. I've simply learned this because

8:54

I used to do the same thing. You're never

8:56

gonna manage all that stuff. This

8:58

stuff is gonna keep coming. The more you try to manage the

9:01

more you're gonna get because you're not focused on

9:03

the right thing. You're not gonna pick one

9:05

thing out of that. You're already

9:07

doing the one thing. I contend. Right

9:10

now there's a main focus of your life. It's

9:13

something somewhere. Every single day your awareness is based

9:15

on something. So instead of having all the

9:17

stuff at the top that you're trying to manage, what we

9:19

do is okay well listen I am a family

9:22

person. I have to support

9:25

my family. I want to be healthy and

9:27

take care of myself too. So I gotta take care of myself

9:29

and I gotta take care of my family. I have to earn a living. And

9:32

that's one thing to me. That's one thing.

9:35

It's not a bunch of things. That's

9:37

what I'm gonna do. So when I get up my identity every

9:39

single day as a family person who's gonna make a great living

9:41

and take care of myself too, there is

9:43

no division in that. It all

9:45

goes together. I don't kill myself at

9:47

my job so I mess up my family life. No,

9:50

no. It's all the same thing. So

9:52

the one thing say is I'm a

9:54

healthy family guy who takes care of

9:56

myself. That's it. Trillion

10:00

things that are going on around me that I'm trying

10:02

to manage, we now flip that funnel upside down. Sitting

10:04

on the top of the funnel is I'm family person

10:07

and everything else is down below. This

10:10

was a concept that was such an epiphany to them today

10:12

when I kind of expressed it to them. I

10:14

said, you're missing the point here. This stuff's always going

10:17

to be there. It's either part of

10:19

your power to drive you forward or

10:21

it's distracting you from ever getting to what you want. So

10:24

if you could just pick one identity and you

10:26

have to pick almost a transitional identity, this is something

10:28

I coined about 15 years ago where

10:31

we're literally creating a person

10:33

that we are temporarily that allows us to take

10:35

all this crazy stuff, shove it

10:37

down underneath us and then we let bubble up

10:39

what fits into our life. In other words, if

10:41

you have 10,000 things that you're managing and you

10:43

shove it down underneath the one thing,

10:45

your family person driving through your day taking care

10:47

of yourself, then as things bubble

10:49

up, the only things you deal with are what? The

10:52

things that allow you to be a family person, allow

10:54

you to make a good living, allow you to

10:56

move forward, allow you to be happy, allow you to be healthy.

10:58

That's it. You just let those things bubble

11:00

up. If they don't fit, they don't bubble up. They

11:02

just stay down. So quit managing everything.

11:04

Just decide your identity, who you want to be and

11:07

then use all the things you have to work with as your

11:09

tool to make your life better. This doesn't make any sense at

11:11

all. Some

11:14

of you go, yeah, it kind of does. This is

11:16

a bad format to talk about this but I cannot

11:18

tell you how many times I've done this with people

11:22

and you got to really wrap your head around how

11:24

you take everything and turn it into one. So if

11:26

I left you with just kind of one thing today,

11:28

it's like what

11:30

identity could you give yourself that would encompass

11:32

everything that you are and want to be

11:35

in one shot and it could be just

11:37

that simple? I'm a

11:39

family guy. I make a great living. I

11:41

take care of a lot of great people around the

11:43

world. As long as I can get out of bed,

11:45

be a good family guy, make a great living and help you, my

11:49

mission's done. Everything else comes

11:51

under that. If you can wrap your head around that,

11:53

you'll change your world tomorrow. Maybe

11:55

today. I don't know. I

11:58

don't know if you all... giggles

12:01

her thinking you might want to talk to

12:03

me I am interviewing people in the Fisher

12:05

Passion. That's what we do these days. I

12:07

want to good faith, I want secure my

12:09

people. So if you think if you relate

12:11

to me, Then Sen.

12:13

Scott a motivational.com will get together. We'll talk

12:16

to see if this is a place.
