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
