Intro: We are back with another episode of the Undeniable Level Up Podcast.  Last week we covered why rules are for stupid people.  We shared some personal examples where this philosophy applied in our lives and we heard about multiple CEO's and very successful businesses that operate from the "Rules are for Stupid People" philosophy as well. Today, we are going to talk about action.  And why we should NEVER confuse motion for action.Gandhi states that "A man is the sum of his actions, of what he has done, of what he can do. Nothing else." Q: What is the difference between motion and action? Motion is being or looking busy regardless of what you are doing, but what is being done will never produce an outcome by itself. Action, is the behavior that garners a result. Benjamin Franklin also says "Never confuse motion with action" There have often been roadblocks and obstacles that have prevented me from taking action based on a desired objective or outcome.  Whether its been to finish college, start a business or retire from the military, I have found myself confused between motion and action and so I have wasted tremendous amounts of time and energy going through the motions. Action, as defined by Crystal, is the behavior that ends in a desired result or achievement of a goal or objective.  Motion is just expended energy.  Wasted energy.  A perfect example can be seen when I was working on finishing my Masters degree.  I kept procrastinating by starting pointless projects, focusing my attention on everything except finishing the degree and as a result, I wasn't done with it when I retired, which was my goal.  To others, it looked like I was really busy. I was doing taxes for family members, starting small businesses, coaching others to start small businesses and overall wasting a bunch of time and energy. If you want to save time and energy, we are going to give you the 11 rules you need to follow to ensure that you are not confusing motion for action and getting the right things done.    Number 1: Always do the hardest or most important task for the day FIRST! Do no procrastinate on the hard things. Q: Do you follow this philosophy? Why do you think this works or doesn't work?  What other criteria do you put on this rule Number 2: Practice extreme ownership.  Own your successes and your failures and never pass the buck. If you haven't had the chance to listen to our episode on Extreme Ownership, I encourage to check it out, It is Episode 9 of the Undeniable Level Up Podcast with a short excerpt from Ex-Navy Seal, Jocko Willink.  Definitely a great message about extreme ownership. Number 3: Begin with baby steps.  If it's something that is hard to do or you don't feel like doing it, break it down into smaller more manageable steps and if you have the luxury of time, spread out it out over time to make it easier to swallow. Q: Have you ever had a project or task so big you had to break it down into smaller parts to get it done? Number 4: Be compassionate with yourself.  Be kind and encouraging to yourself. Q: How are you compassionate with yourself when executing tough projects or tasks? Number 5: Constantly re-focus on your WHY and your Values.  These should get you off the couch when you lacking in motivation and feeling like procrastinating. Q: How often do you focus on your WHY and your values?  What does this look like?   Number 6: Create accountability.  If you can't hold yourself accountable, then create a process or system to hold you accountable. Q: Have you ever had to create an accountability process for yourself?  What did that look like?  Did it work?  Why did it or did it not work? Number 7:  Create work life balance.  Take time to completely shut work off so that you are rested enough to focus fully when your back on the grind. Q: How do you balance between work and life? Number 8:  Be confident.  Lack of confidence will have you over analyzing and over-preparing and wasting time. Q:  How has lack of confidence impacted your work on projects or important tasks? Number 9:  Sustain your enthusiasm.  Sometimes our initial energy for a project or task begins to die as the task or project becomes extended.  Re-engage that enthusiasm by having a partner to re-engage you, listen to podcasts about the topic or read a book about the topic. Q:  How do you sustain your enthusiasm especially on really prolonged projects? Number 10:  Have fun. Q: How do you make projects or tasks more fun? Number 11:  Celebrate the small victories! Q: How do you celebrate your small victories? Read:  For those of you still finding it a challenge to tell the difference between motion and action, James Clear, author of The Mistake Smart People Make: Being in Motion versus Taking Action provides the following examples of motion versus action: If I outline 20 ideas for articles I want to write, that's motion. If I actually write and publish an article, that's action. If I email 10 new leads for my business and start conversations with them, that's motion. If they actually buy something and turn into a customer, that's action. If I search for a better diet plan and read a few books on the topic, that's motion. If I actually eat a healthy meal, that's action. If I go to the gym and ask about getting a personal trainer, that's motion. If I actually step under the bar and start squatting, that's action. If I study for a test or prepare for a research project, that's motion. If I actually take the test or write my research paper, that's action. Guys and Gals, it's time to level up and stop allowing motion to detract us from actually accomplishing our goals and objectives.  Begin understanding that in order to move the ball forward, you need to take decisive and deliberate action.  Stop planning, preparing, scheduling, researching and saving and start doing.   .If you have been thinking about going back to school, enroll today.  If you have been thinking about starting a business, register your business now.  If you've been seeing that cute guy or girl, approach him or her today.  Motion isn't enough to get the job done.  Take action and achieve success. CTAIf you're ready to start taking action, then I want you to watch the TedTalk by Steve Garguilo on YouTube at The Science of Taking Action | Steve Garguilo | TEDxCarthage This TedTalk will give you the ingredients to take action NOW.  What ever your big or small idea is, now is the time to take action and Steve shows you how super easy it is to not get lost in motion, but to take action ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

“There's strategic value in giving up some control when you're a leader at a company and you want new ideas to emerge.” - Steve GarguiloEarly in his career, Steve did the (seemingly) impossible—he led a grassroots transformation of the culture of Johnson & Johnson, the fifth largest company in the world. Frustrated by the pace and challenges of big company culture, Steve decided to do something he’d done in college: host a TEDx.  He hosted a casual TEDx event at a bar and invited employees within Johnson & Johnson to share their research, wild ideas, and learn from one another. Within an hour and a half of posting the event internally, 90 people had signed up. Soon employees at other offices around the world wanted to host their own. By the time Steve was done, 23,000 people at Johnson & Johnson had engaged in a TEDx and he had a new title: “Head of Instigation at Johnson & Johnson.”Today Steve continues this work shifting big company cultures from the ground up. As a partner at Cultivate, he’s taking the transformative work he did at Johnson & Johnson to other organizations. He co-authored Surge: Your Guide to Put Any Idea into Action which captures the two-decade on the quest to find better ways to take action on our ideas.We talk with Steve about how he pinpointed fellow changemakers within Johnson & Johnson and supercharged their ideas using the TEDx format. Highlights, inspiration, & key learnings:Start with “why.” Aligning behind a shared purpose.Do something together. The steps Steve took to host the first TEDx at J&J.Metrics of success. Shiny eyes and goosebump moments.Pinpointing cultivators. Finding other people that have energy to spark change.Leading authentically. Being the person that you want more of in the world.

Steve Garguilo a étudié avec des psychologues, des sociologues, des anthropologues, des neuroscientifiques pour en apprendre davantage sur la science de l'action et sur ce qui incite ou retient les gens.Après avoir été impliqué dans la communauté TED et beaucoup de travail de réflexion sur le design, Steve était fatigué de parler d'idées, alors il a entrepris un voyage pour comprendre comment prendre des mesures plus claires et spécifiques sur les idées, et a appris comment créer un biais vers l'action afin que cela devienne une norme.

For the last 18 months, Penelope Misquitta has been the Organizer and Curator of the internal TEDx events at Johnson & Johnson. TEDxJNJ is a part of the Ambassador Leadership program inside HR in the company. This program was originally started by Steve Garguilo, who has been on this podcast Penelope is the epitome of a TEDx organizer. She's passionate about ideas, has an endless source of energy and is ever-present on the TEDx Organizers Facebook group, encouraging and offering help. She started working at J&J in the Singapore office and enjoyed her first TEDx on 12/12/12 at the company. She heard about the event from a candy bar a colleague gave her with a link to the internal TEDx platform. Internal TEDx events are a way for companies to inspire their employees and a voice to ideas within the enterprize. J&J was one of the first corporations to host an internal TEDx. There is an event most weeks on the many J&J campuses around the world.

If this episode doesn't make you laugh and smile then nothing will. Author of the book Surge, Steve Garguilo talks at length with Marc about making ideas happen. What are the barriers to action? How do you get through them? How can you make the change you want to see happen in the world become a reality? All this and more answered in this really fun interview. 

Steve Garguilo runs the Office of Creative Engagement at J&J (Johnson and Johnson), one of the first corporate TEDx events. Learn how this program went from 60 people in a bar after work to one of the most successful TEDx programs in the Fortune 500. He is also the co-author of Surge: Your Guide to Put Any Idea into Action. Steve has a degree in Humanitarian Engineering and helped launch TEDxPSU as an alumnus (more of the story here). He, like Daniel at TEDxKL, was inspired in the beginning by Lara Stein, of TED. Now that there is a TEDxJNJ somewhere in the world, every week, and a team of employees who help produce, he's focused on a bigger vision of finding hidden voices and talents in the Company. He says that where they've ended up is not what they originally conceived of and that they didn't start with a grand vision. Steve is well known to the TEDx community and can be found on the TEDx stage helping other organizers create live-changing events.

Steve Garguilo is a man who knows how to make things happen! In our discussion, he shares how he starts with an idea and then works towards getting it done. He’s developed what he calls “a bias for taking action” and now he’s helping other people do the same. You’ll also hear Steve share some of the ideas from his recently published book: Surge: Your Guide to Put Any Idea Into Action. Steve and his friends Matt Kane and Sergiy Skoryk collaborated on the book after creating an adult summer camp focused on making things happen, aptly named Action Camp.
