Gordon takes a look at both success and failure and explains why they are not opposites or final but part of the journey to achieving what you want and living a life you love Success is different for every individual and failure is an opportunity to learn and move forward and Gordon has some great tips on how to do this. As Gordon explains Winston Churchill's quote “Success is not final, failure is not fatal it's the courage to continue that counts” is a good reminder about always moving forward and adjusting your actions and behaviours to achieve your goals KEY TAKEAWAYS Everyone is aiming for success and its different for every individual Successfully reaching a goal can feel like something final but achieving an individual goal can be a part of a bigger journey You need to keep putting in the effort and working towards future success Neither success nor failure are final, there is always a chance for things to change Keep adjusting your actions, reactions, and behaviours to get to the goals you want to achieve Both success and failure are not final but they can be if we make them If you take a loss learn from it and move forward Failure is not the opposite of success, you can't have one without the other Failure is an opportunity to learn and needs to be part of your journey to success BEST MOMENTS ‘Success and failure are not final' ‘Once we've achieved a goal we take our foot off the gas and can start rolling backwards' ‘The people around you should be lifting you up' VALUABLE RESOURCES Life, Living It and Loving It podcast ABOUT THE HOST Welcome to the life, living it and loving it podcast with Extreme Execution Coach Gordon Done.

Gordon discusses the ways we can adapt and be prepared for opportunities whenever they come along.

What can you uncomplicate in your life? Gordon looks at how we can often overcomplicate our lives and instead of looking for a simple solution to a situation we look for something more complicated. He discusses the ways you can recognise when things are becoming complicated and how you can keep it simple and live the life you love KEY TAKEAWAYS Often we can make things over complicated when the solution is relatively simple When life becomes stressful, ask yourself am I taking the simplest approach to things? The simplest solution can be the best one Simple doesn't always mean easy, sometimes the simplest solution can be the hardest one When you begin to feel stressed review whether you are making things complicated If you simplify things it will restore your belief in yourself If you simplify the things in your life you will achieve more and increase your confidence You can set yourself up for failure if you make things over complicated There are always complications in life so simplifying processes and solutions, will mean you are in a better position to deal with the complex situations BEST MOMENTS ‘We can make things much more complicated than they need to be' ‘The simplest path is often the right path' We unconsciously complicate and there is no need for it VALUABLE RESOURCES Life, Living It and Loving It podcast ABOUT THE HOST Welcome to the life, living it and loving it podcast with Extreme Execution Coach Gordon Done.

Gordon is continuing the conversation about faith and discusses not only having self-belief but the importance of having belief in others Those who we interact with every day are people who we need to have faith in and if you find you are surrounded by people who you don't have faith in then you need to review whether they are the right people for you to be around and make the changes that will bring the right balance KEY TAKEAWAYS You have to have a belief in those you regularly interact with Relationships need to be, give, and take Reviewing your relationships is about making sure the balance is right Change your environment and the people you are spending time with if you don't have belief in them Your friends and clients need to have faith in you Positive interactions will bring people back to you BEST MOMENTS ‘You have to have a certain amount of faith in those around you' ‘We are all human and can't be perfect all of the time' VALUABLE RESOURCES Life, Living It and Loving It podcast ABOUT THE HOST Welcome to the life, living it and loving it podcast with Extreme Execution Coach Gordon Done.

Faith can mean different things to different people and in this episode Gordon takes a closer look at the faith you have in yourself and those around you. For much of the time we don't even think about the faith we have in ourselves but experiencing challenges and knocks in life can lessen your faith and Gordon shares some great advice about how to set smaller goals to build momentum, talk to others and plan in time for yourself. KEY TAKEAWAYS Experiencing difficulties and going through traumatic experiences can mean you lose confidence Accept when you have been through challenges that your faith and confidence may be knocked You can lose confidence and faith in yourself when the negative things stack up You need to look at things differently and start measuring the micro to get more wins Break your goals down into smaller targets and wins Reduce the scale and size of the target to achieve manageable goals Build momentum so that you are moving forward Talk to others, their advice may help you to solve the problem Rebuild your habit structure, adjust your habits and go back to the basics to make sure you are doing what's really important as part of your core habits Be kind to yourself and don't set yourself up for failure BEST MOMENTS ‘Often you don't even think about the faith you have in yourself' ‘A win creates momentum and once you get a win, you want to keep going' ‘No one is perfect all the time, every one takes losses at some point' VALUABLE RESOURCES Life, Living It and Loving It podcast ABOUT THE HOST Welcome to the life, living it and loving it podcast with Extreme Execution Coach Gordon Done.

How do you know when you are successful and how do you know when you can stop working towards your happiness? This is a question Gordon is often asked and in this episode, he discusses why it's vital to understand what makes you happy and the importance of goals and objectives in achieving your happiness.

Being conscious about what you are doing is key in all areas of your life and Gordon looks at what happens when you haven't quite got something across the finish line or you haven't given yourself the opportunity. Ultimately it's all about being self-aware when you stop short and be conscious of your actions. You can stop yourself from self-sabotaging and not getting to the finish line if you understand the importance of consistency and recognise when a process isn't working and what you can take forward. KEY TAKEAWAYS Everyone can have a different finish line and it's important to understand where your finish line is. Getting to a 100% is about taking the time to practice and finesse your skills Can you identify where you are leaving something on the table You need to make sure the customer is getting 100% Sometimes the last 5% can be the most difficult to achieve Motivation is key in getting across the finish line If you are not consistent you may stop but it's important to give everything an opportunity to work out. If you quit early you can still take the things that worked onto the next thing If something isn't working you can change your approach You need to give something an opportunity for success Things don't change overnight it's a longer process You have to trust the process and give it time If you have allowed the time and a process isn't working out then you can change it BEST MOMENTS ‘The finish line can seem a long way away' ‘Consistent action and goal setting is the key to success' ‘A learning experience is something that you can benefit from' VALUABLE RESOURCES Life, Living It and Loving It podcast ABOUT THE HOST Welcome to the life, living it and loving it podcast with Extreme Execution Coach Gordon Done.

The 1% is a small change that takes little or no effort but compounds with other small changes to make a difference and Gordon explains how it can be used in all areas of your life. If you want to make improvements it's not always about the big actions the small changes compounding can make a difference if you are consistent in applying them and review and adapt to get the best from small change so the question you need to ask yourself is - How can you apply the 1% rule to your life? KEY TAKEAWAYS The 1% theory is based on the concept of improving all aspects by 1% which together aid up to a bigger change. A fundamental in health and wellbeing is sleep, so reviewing how you can improve your sleep by 1% consistently will have an impact By building on the 1% changes you will achieve a compound effect Once you begin to make small changes you will be able to see and track the difference they make. It's important to only make one small change at a time so you can review the difference and make adaptations to ensure you are gaining the most impact. The key is to make it as easy as possible so you stick to doing it consistently BEST MOMENTS ‘Making small changes and combining them can have a big impact' ‘Sleep is a cornerstone for all aspects of life ‘You can apply 1% changes across your life' VALUABLE RESOURCES Life, Living It and Loving It podcast ABOUT THE HOST Welcome to the life, living it and loving it podcast with Extreme Execution Coach Gordon Done.
