Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge why so many people work hard yet fail to see real progress in self-improvement. Discipline is not the problem. Consistency is not the problem. The real issue shows up in how decisions are made when no one is watching.This episode cuts through surface-level personal development and focuses on the thinking patterns that quietly determine long-term outcomes. If you care about making better decisions, building consistency that lasts, and growing with intention instead of urgency, this conversation will sharpen how you approach self-improvement.Listen closely. Then ask yourself if your daily choices are actually taking you where you say you want to go._______________________Learn more about:Join our private Facebook community, “Next Level Nation,” to grow alongside people who are committed to improvement. - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700The “Next Level Hope Foundation” creates meaningful experiences for kids growing up without a father figure and builds a positive, supportive community around them.To support this event, you can donate here: https://gofund.me/5c6abcf7f_______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

In real estate, this time of year exposes something we don't talk about: feeling stuck. As the year winds down and a new one begins, even experienced agents can feel like they're spinning their wheels or like they just don't know what to do. And the truth is, there's nothing unusual about that. Every one of us hits moments where our motivation dips, our habits slip, or our thoughts get louder than our actions. But feeling stuck doesn't mean something is wrong. More often, it simply means we've gotten caught inside our own heads. What makes a difference isn't feeling bad when we get stuck; it's learning how to move through this quickly, and there are a few highly effective strategies you can try. In this episode, we unpack what actually causes that “stuck” feeling, why it shows up more frequently than most agents realize, and the practical ways to regain momentum. Things You'll Learn In This Episode You're only one action away from momentum Feeling stuck isn't a sign to stop; it's a sign to move. How does simply doing one small thing reset our entire trajectory? The observer mindset changes everything We get stuck when we believe the story in our head. What happens when we step outside ourselves and question the narrative instead of obeying it? Momentum creates clarity, not the other way around Most agents wait to “feel ready” before they act, but clarity comes after movement. What new possibilities open up once we just start? Numbers reveal your patterns before you get stuck Declines in contacts, appointments, or consistency don't happen overnight. How does tracking our metrics help us catch a slump before we're in one?

When winter settles in and the world grows quiet, strange things start to stir. In this year's TFD Christmas Special, we're sharing true ghost stories and creepy encounters to haunt your holiday and prove they aren't always filled with Christmas cheer. You'll hear about a haunted apartment in Ohio where a ghost learned to coexist with its tenants, a chilling brush with the so-called Death Angel (or Mothman as Christian calls it), and heartfelt tales of spirits who return when the season feels loneliest. Sharing ghost stories is the annual Christmas tradition round these parts—where fireside storytelling meets the unexplained, and endless tangents. Perfect for fans of true paranormal experiences, christmas ghost stories, and eerie holiday tales that linger long after the lights go out. So pour some nog, dim the lights, and settle in for a Christmas podcast that's equal parts strange, tragic, wonder and whimsey (okay maybe not whimsey, but it's a good time either way). Merry Christmas from The Freaky Deaky—where even the ghosts come home for the holidays.

Addiction Unlimited Podcast | Alcoholism | Life Coach | Living Sober | 12 Steps
If you’re a high-functioning drinker waiting for rock bottom to give you permission to quit, this episode will change everything. Most people think rock bottom is an external event—a DUI, job loss, or divorce. But that’s not what rock bottom actually is, and this misunderstanding is keeping you stuck in a cycle that never ends. In this episode, I break down the real meaning of rock bottom and why waiting for external proof is preventing you from taking action on what you already know. You’ll learn why comparing your life to other people’s disasters keeps you drinking longer, what to listen for in recovery meetings (hint: it’s not the external details), and why the question “Do I really need to quit?” is actually your answer. What You’ll Learn: Why high-functioning drinkers misunderstand rock bottom and how it keeps them stuck The “I’m not that bad” fallacy and why comparing external circumstances is the wrong measuring stick What rock bottom actually is (internal, not external) and why it changes everything How to recognize rock bottom moments before they become major disasters Why people who don’t have a drinking problem never wonder if they need to quit The real reason your brain keeps offering alcohol as a solution when things get uncomfortable How lowering the bar and rationalizing red flags keeps the cycle going Why you don’t need to wait for things to get worse to make a change Key Takeaways: Rock bottom is internal, not external. It’s not about what happens to you—it’s about the moment you realize you can’t live like this anymore, even if your life still looks good from the outside. You’re comparing the wrong things. When you compare your life to other people’s disasters, you’ll always feel like you’re “not that bad.” But when you compare your internal experience—the exhaustion, the mental gymnastics, the constant negotiation with yourself—that’s when you recognize the real problem. External events don’t create clarity—they force action. Most dramatic rock bottom moments are years in the making. There are a million smaller red flags that get rationalized away before the big event happens. You don’t have to wait for the big event. If you’re asking the question, that’s your answer. People without drinking problems never wonder if they need to quit. They don’t think about alcohol constantly, plan their days around it, or spend energy managing and moderating it. If you’re here listening to this, you already know. Episode Highlights: [00:12] The common misunderstanding about rock bottom that keeps high-functioning drinkers stuck [02:00] Why “I’m not that bad” only works if rock bottom is external (spoiler: it’s not) [05:50] The AA meeting trap: comparing external details instead of internal feelings [09:33] What rock bottom actually is: internal, emotional, and the moment you realize you can’t live like this anymore [11:00] My two-year rock bottom and why I waited so long to take action [14:42] If you want to wait until things get worse, they will (and here’s what that looks like) [16:30] The small red flags we rationalize away that lead to bigger disasters [17:50] A client’s rock bottom moment: choosing a drink over playing with his son [19:19] Why asking “Do I really need to quit?” is actually your answer [21:31] The takeaway: You already know. Stop waiting for permission.

Growth gets real when effort meets reality. In today's episode, Kevin and Alan strip away a comfortable idea in self-improvement that sounds right but quietly caps results. Consistency matters. Personal development matters. But progress stalls when discipline disconnects from real-world decision-making.This is a grounded conversation about long-term growth, identity, and what actually drives performance over time. No hype. No shortcuts. Just a clear look at how serious self-improvement works when pressure, competition, and standards are real. If you care about building consistency that lasts and making decisions that compound, this episode will sharpen how you think. Listen closely. This one separates intention from execution._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

Momentum is a powerful gift—but it can also be deceiving.That's why we're bringing back one of the most listened-to episodes of the entire year on the Fly on the Wall Podcast.

Most companies plateau. Brad shows you why and how to break through. In this episode of The $100M Entrepreneur Podcast, Brad Sugars explains the real ceilings businesses hit at $1M, $3M, and $10M and what it actually takes to push past each one. He breaks down the “million-dollar founder ceiling,” where everything still runs through you; the $3M systems ceiling, where the business is trapped in people's heads instead of documented processes; and the $10M leadership ceiling, where growth stalls because you haven't built leaders who can build the next phase.Brad also dives into the biggest enemy of scale: complexity. He explains why simplifying products, narrowing focus, and doing the one thing you can be the best in the world at is the fastest path to $100M. He shares lessons from Apple, McDonald's, and even Cheesecake Factory to show how modularization and clarity unlock leverage.From there, Brad walks you through the real choke points that stop companies from scaling, and how each one suffocates growth if you don't solve it early. He then lays out the path forward: building systems at $1M, building leaders at $3M, and building strategy at $10M, so you can scale from there to $100M and beyond.If you want to understand exactly why businesses stall, and what to do next, this is the episode for you. See you next week, on the 100M Entrepreneur Podcast, new episode every Wednesday.About Brad SugarsInternationally known as one of the most influential entrepreneurs, Brad Sugars is a bestselling author, keynote speaker, and the #1 business coach in the world.

What do we do when everything that used to make us feel capable—high achievement, tight control, pushing harder—suddenly stops working? In this conversation, I sit down with Hogie, someone navigating the layered grief of a recent business closure, a life-changing diagnosis, and the quiet unraveling that can follow when our old strategies no longer serve us. We talk about what it means to measure success differently, the challenge of releasing the grip of perfection, and how diabetes, divorce, and burnout have all become unlikely teachers in his life. It's a conversation about recalibrating your inner compass when the map no longer fits. About honouring the parts of you that got you here—while gently exploring what else might be possible when you let go of needing to be the best. If you've ever struggled to loosen the grip on high standards, or wondered who you are without the metrics, this one's for you.We are so grateful to our incredible sponsors.

ProjectME with Tiffany Carter – Entrepreneurship & Millionaire Mindset
If you're an entrepreneur who feels stuck, unmotivated, or disconnected — even though you know exactly what to do — this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Many business owners experience burnout, nervous system overload, and identity shifts right before a major growth phase. In this episode, Tiffany Carter breaks down why success can suddenly feel heavy, why motivation disappears, and why this isn't a strategy problem — it's an internal recalibration.

That means when you're on the edge of growth, motivation often drops before momentum returns. So if you feel stuck even though you know exactly what to do, this episode is for you. Because what you're experiencing isn't a problem to fix — it's a transition to stabilize.
For the last six weeks, children who crossed the US-Mexico border alone have been inexplicably stuck in federal custody at shelters across the country. The Trump administration has stopped releasing these kids to their families and loved ones. It's not saying why. But sources in the government agency that's in charge of unaccompanied kids — and lawyers who help them — say they've never seen anything like this. Guest: Mark Betancourt, The California Newsroom Federal authorities say they've thwarted a plot to bomb five locations around Southern California on New Year's Eve. The FBI has arrested four people who they say belong to an extremist anti-government group. Reporter: Madison Aument, KVCR After a Supreme Court decision that allowed authorities to penalize people for sleeping outdoors, the City of Fresno was one of the first to enact its own anti-camping law.

Why does fulfillment feel so hard to define, and even harder to maintain?In this episode, Kevin and Alan break down why personal development without alignment eventually stalls. Fulfillment is not a reward for working harder. It is the result of consistent decisions, honest self-awareness, and staying committed to meaningful work long after the excitement fades. This episode is for anyone focused on self-improvement, consistency, and long-term growth, not quick motivation.

The same nervous system patterns that keep us stuck in survival mode may also be telling our body it's not safe to create new life. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Ann Shippy, a leading functional medicine physician and former chemical engineer who reveals the hidden biological barriers to conception. Get the full episode breakdown at Biology of Trauma® Podcast - Episode 152: Why You Can't Get Pregnant: The Hidden Biology of Fertility In this episode you'll learn: [00:01:20] Why the fertility narrative around age may be missing the bigger picture—and what's actually driving infertility rates [00:02:28] How one patient at 41 conceived easily after addressing heavy metals, microbiome imbalances, and hormonal dysfunction [00:04:16] The identity wound that infertility triggers—and why "am I enough?" surfaces when conception feels impossible [00:09:37] Why hope itself shifts biology and creates an environment welcoming to new life [00:10:45] How environmental toxins—even from healthy activities like golf—create hidden fertility barriers [00:11:48] The "time capsule" concept: How eggs and sperm collect information about stress, trauma, toxins, and nutrient status [00:13:55] The parallel between neuroception and fertility—both systems asking the same question about safety and capacity [00:16:41] Why infertility is fundamentally an energy problem—and how mitochondrial function determines whether the body says yes to new life [00:18:12] How pregnancy can deplete an already exhausted body and create chronic patterns of depletion [00:20:06] The first step Dr. Ann recommends for anyone wanting to conceive—even in their mid-forties
✨Hey! This week looks a little different around here — on purpose. Instead of our usual rhythm, I'm airing five episodes in five days. Think of it as a mini-series designed especially for you — curated, fun, and binge-worthy. Fewer cliffhangers, more “ohhh… that makes sense.” Every episode this week features a conversation from a show I've been invited onto as a guest — hosted by smart, generous people you'll genuinely enjoy listening to. Each episode stands on its own. Together, they create momentum. So if you've been listening here and there, this is a great week to lean in. Start wherever you want — or (best option) listen in order and let the through-line reveal itself. Either way, I'd love to hear what you think. Happiest and Healthiest Holidays to you and your loved ones. ✨ Episode Title: Stop Trying So Hard: “Doing Everything Right” Is Keeping You Stuck Your body can't heal in survival mode — no matter how clean your diet is. What if the reason you don't feel amazing is NOT because you're inconsistent, unmotivated, or doing it wrong? If you've tried “all the right things” and your health still feels off—tired, achy, foggy, or like you're aging too fast—this episode is for you. What if it's because wellness culture keeps handing you high-effort solutions to your health complaints — and your nervous system is quietly waving a white flag? In this conversation on Charis Chats, I join Charis Santillie for a refreshingly sane take on health: why feeling better doesn't require a total life overhaul, why tiny habits outperform dramatic protocols, and how stress, blood sugar, gut health, hormones, and mindset are far more intertwined than most advice admits. This episode is for you if you want to feel clearer, more grounded, and more energized — without turning your life into a full-time self-improvement project. If you've done the dietary shifts, supplements, yoga classes and still feel off… this one will stop you mid-scroll. Long exhale. What We Cover (with Timestamps) [00:02] — Why most people fail at wellness before they even start Not because they lack discipline — but because they're trying to change everything at once. We talk about why your nervous system hates that plan. [00:08] — My unconventional path into functional medicine The childhood moment that shaped my obsession with prevention — and why waiting for a diagnosis is a terrible health strategy. [00:12] — The easiest health upgrades almost everyone can tolerate Why adding beats restricting, how morning habits set your physiology for the day, and where people overcomplicate this fast. [00:15] — MCT oil, brain fuel, and using it without wrecking your gut What it actually does, who benefits most, and why more is not better (your digestive system agrees). [00:22] — Beets, blood flow, and why circulation matters more than you think Nitric oxide, brain health, aging, and the simple daily support most people overlook. [00:26] — Habit stacking: the science-backed shortcut to consistency Why motivation is unreliable, how your brain actually forms habits, and how tiny wins build momentum without burnout. [00:31] — Your body is always listening (this part isn't woo) How thoughts, identity, and repetition shape physiology — and why your subconscious is far more literal than you think. [00:40] — Gluten, inflammation, and the ‘small' symptoms people ignore Skin issues, fatigue, bloating, brain fog — why these aren't random, and what your body may be asking for. [00:55] — The mindset shift that creates lasting health Why consistency quietly beats intensity every time — and how small daily choices compound into real change. The Big Takeaway You don't need a stricter routine. You don't need more supplements. And you definitely don't need to be harder on yourself. You need simpler inputs, smarter habits, and a nervous system that feels safe enough to heal. This episode is your reminder that sustainable health is built quietly — through small, repeatable choices that actually fit your life. Press play. Your future self will thank you. Where to Find Me
In this conversation, Brian Sacks shares what it was like to grow up as the only child of parents who had him late in life—parents he would eventually care for emotionally, physically, and financially while still trying to become an adult himself. Brian opens up about the pressure of stepping into adulthood far too early, running his father's business as a teenager, and learning to navigate life without the safety net most young people rely on. Brian also reflects on how those early hardships shaped him as a husband, father, and professional—and why breaking generational patterns became a non-negotiable part of raising his own children. Now, decades into a successful marriage and career, Brian has turned his lived experience into service, creating the Stuck in the Middle newsletter, podcast, and community for people balancing the simultaneous demands of aging parents, growing children, relationships, and work. This episode is a grounded, heartfelt reminder that success isn't defined by ease—it's defined by resilience, compassion, and the willingness to play the hand you're dealt with integrity and grit.Brian's Resources: Podcast: Stuck in the Middle Episode: Guiding Young Adults Through Emotional Struggles and Family Transitions with Joanna Lilley Newsletter: Stuck in the Middle Facebook: Stuck in the Middle NewsConnect with Joanna Lilley Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #StuckInTheMiddle #StuckInTheMiddlePodcast #BrianSacks #TeenYears #TeenAnxiety #ParentingHelp #LifeTransitions #UpsAndDownsOfLife

Description: Most coaches genuinely want to help—but good intentions don't override impact. In this Master Coach Series episode celebrating 200+ podcast episodes, Jess breaks down the seven coaching mistakes even well-trained coaches are unintentionally making that keep clients stuck. These mistakes show up across every niche—from life coaching to business coaching. Inside this episode, you'll learn how to coach at a higher, more effective, more ethical level by avoiding the patterns that derail client progress. You'll learn: Why cheerleading actually prevents transformation How "Curious George" questioning sabotages momentum The difference between coaching the symptom vs. the system How safety strategies drive self-sabotage The leadership skills every professional coach must master Why you can't coach a dysregulated nervous system The subtle (and uncomfortable) ways coaches become coach-centered instead of client-centered When you eliminate these blind spots, your coaching becomes sharper, cleaner, and dramatically more impactful—and your clients start getting the results they hired you for.

We're sold the idea that balance means doing everything perfectly at the same time being productive at work, fully present at home, on top of the holidays, and magically finding space to grow a business or podcast without missing a beat. But that version of “balance” is the very thing keeping so many entrepreneurs and podcasters stuck in guilt, overwhelm, and the constant feeling of never being enough. In this episode, Olivia breaks down the lie behind traditional work–life balance and reveals why your real power comes from presence, intentionality, and the courage to release perfection. Through honest stories and the hard lessons learned while building her business, she shares how she went from 12-hour days to a seasonally adaptive, strategy-first approach without sacrificing results. If you've ever said “I don't have time,” waited for the perfect moment to start, or felt torn between your priorities, this conversation will shift how you see productivity, balance, and growth. Olivia unpacks why clarity matters more than control, why perfectionism stalls progress, and how redefining balance allows you to launch, build, and sustain your podcast or business with far less pressure and far more impact. You'll walk away with a new understanding of what balance actually looks like not equal time, but intentional time and the presence to show up where it matters most.Want to start your own podcast, grow your show, or get featured as a guest?

George Bory, chief investment strategist for fixed income at Allspring Global Investments, says inflation is "stuck" at around 3% despite efforts to shrink it, leaving the Federal Reserve struggling with policy decisions as the Trump Administration positions current levels as acceptable. He's expecting the Fed to cut rates once in 2026, toward the middle of the year, and says the market seems accepting, or resigned, to that. As a result, however, he says this is not a time for "set it and forget it" investment styles in fixed income, noting that the opportunities are changing with the shape of the yield curve today. Jeffrey Bierman, chief strategist at Genesis Cog and chief market technician for TheoTrade.com, says the market has already seen its Santa Claus rally, from the end of Thanksgiving to the end of last week, leaving little room for upside into the end of the year and into 2026. For the new year, Bierman sees a protracted period of sideways markets before things turn positive for the end of the year, but he says that leaves plenty of valuation-driven opportunities for patient investors now. In the Market Call, Brian Bollinger, president of Simply Safe Dividends, talks long-term dividend and income investing.
Send us a textHave you ever caught yourself thinking, “I know better… so why do I keep doing this?”In this episode of the Limitless Health Podcast, Kate explores why insight alone does not change deeply rooted patterns, and what actually creates lasting transformation.

In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge how most people think about fulfillment and why chasing the wrong thing leads to long-term dissatisfaction. They examine the gap between outcomes and meaning, question commonly accepted definitions of happiness, and address why fulfillment cannot be manufactured through success alone. Drawing from years of experience and real-world patterns, this episode reframes fulfillment as something built over time, not something found in a moment.This conversation is a grounded reminder that meaning is earned through consistent execution and personal alignment, not intention or emotion._______________________Visual Asset:The Pyramid of Fulfillment Learn more about:Join our private Facebook community, “Next Level Nation,” to grow alongside people who are committed to improvement. - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700The “Next Level Hope Foundation” creates meaningful experiences for kids growing up without a father figure and builds a positive, supportive community around them.To support this event, you can donate here: https://gofund.me/5c6abcf7f_______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge a common misconception in self-improvement. Most people are not stuck because they lack drive. They are stuck because they are building on the wrong foundation. This episode reframes what real personal development requires when results matter over the long term. Through lived experience and hard-earned insight, Kevin and Alan unpack the invisible factors that separate progress from stagnation and why some people consistently earn trust, momentum, and opportunity while others do not.If you want sustainable growth, sharper decisions, and real progress in your self-improvement journey, this episode clarifies what serious personal development actually requires._______________________Learn more about:The “Next Level Hope Foundation” creates meaningful experiences for kids growing up without a father figure and builds a positive, supportive community around them.To support this event, you can donate here: https://gofund.me/5c6abcf7f_______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

"I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth." That was President John Kennedy in 1961, speaking at the Joint Session of Congress. It is possibly the best example of a project statement ever made.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. Starting projects. It can be tough. Where do you start? Where will you find the time? And what do you need to do? These are just some of the questions you will find yourself asking. Yet the biggest obstacle to completing a project on time is overthinking and over-planning. Thinking about and planning a project are not the same as working on one. Working on a project is doing something that moves it forward. Decorating your bedroom will require paint and brushes. The only pre-project decision you need to make is what colour. The first two steps, therefore, are: Decide what colour to paint the bedroom Buy paint and brushes I would add a third decision: when. When will you do it? Once you've done those three things, you're ready to go—no more planning, no more thinking. Just get on and start. Yet, that's not how most projects go, is it? There's thinking, planning, then creating tasks in your task manager, and if it's a work project, a meeting, then perhaps another meeting. Often, by the time a project is conceived, 80% of the time required to complete it gets spent on thinking, planning, and meetings. And that brings us nicely to this week's question—a question about finding ways to reduce the thinking and planning time. So, let me now hand you over to the Mystery Podcast voice for this week's question. This week's question comes from Phil. Phil asks, “Hi Carl, how do you work on complex projects?” I find I spend a lot of time planning a project, end up with a long list of things to do, and when it comes to starting, I freeze. It's as if I don't know where to start. Do you have any tips on handling this type of problem? Hi Phil, thank you for your question. “Project freeze” is a common problem for many people. I suspect this stems from the belief that every aspect of a project needs to be planned before starting. Yet, for many projects, this would be impossible. Imagine you were part of NASA in May 1961, and you'd just heard President Kennedy's speech at the joint session of Congress about why the US should put a man on the moon and bring him back safely to earth before the end of the decade. At that time, NASA was struggling to get even the smallest of rockets into space—the idea of sending astronauts to the moon and back was a pipe dream. Yet a group of incredible people at NASA in 1961 took on the challenge. Instead of planning every single step they thought would be needed to complete the project, they looked at what they already knew, the obstacles they would need to overcome, and the first steps. That gave birth to the Mercury space mission. The Mercury programme was not to put a man on the moon; its objectives were to orbit a crewed spacecraft around Earth, study the human ability to function in space, and ensure the safe recovery of both the astronaut and the spacecraft. Before they could reach the moon, they needed to understand how humans cope in space. So the project's objective was to send a man into Earth's orbit. The key was to get started, and they did this by listing out the obstacles they needed to overcome first. They then worked out how to remove those obstacles. Now, I know our projects are unlikely to be as big as sending someone to the moon and back, but we can adopt the same approach that NASA used to work on our projects. Even small projects can adopt this approach. Let's say you were asked to do a presentation on the likely effects of AI on your company's business over the next five years. Where would you start? For something like this, there would be several phases. The first would be to research and gather information. For this, the task would likely be to find out who to ask or what to read. Okay, when will you do this? Here's the key point. It's no good just deciding what needs to be done first. You need to make it intentional, and to do that, you will need to set aside time to do it. Perhaps you decide to give yourself an afternoon to research this. Research is a challenge in itself. We can go down rabbit holes that bring no meaningful insights into what we are trying to do. Yet, we can also underestimate how much time is required for research. So the first step is to do an initial session of research to help you develop some boundaries. You might be lucky and find that the first research session gives you everything you need to start the presentation. However, if not, and you discover you need to do more research, then when will you do that? One thing you can do with creating a presentation is to set up your PowerPoint or Keynote file. Create the document, do the first slide and perhaps set the theme colours. Having a document started makes it much easier to get into creating the presentation. The danger of listing out all the things you think you need to do to complete the project is that 80% of what you think needs to be done doesn't, and you will find that 80% of what ends up being done were things you never thought of in the first place. All you really need is a starting point. I recently did a video on how to write a book. The number one reason people who want to write but never do write a book is that they overthink and plan it. Thinking and planning do not produce a book. The best way to write a book is to get the first draft written as fast as you can. All that is required is a few ideas about what you want to write about. From there, you start writing the first draft. The first draft will be the worst state your book will ever be in. It's meant to be messy, unstructured and occasionally unreadable. But, once you have a first draft, you have around 80,000 words you can manipulate, craft and organise into a best seller. Without that first draft, you have nothing but a few ideas. How do you write a first draft? Set aside time each day to write. An hour or two every day for eight weeks will give you your first draft. As you write, new ideas will form, and you can make a note of those along the way. That will make your editing easier. The common denominator with any project is to get started. Everything has a starting point. Wherever that is, start there. It's as you are working on the project that your next steps reveal themselves. When I first began creating online courses, I had no idea what I was doing. But what I did have was fifteen years of teaching experience, and I knew how to create a lesson plan. I also knew what I wanted to create an online course on. So I could create a lesson plan and a topic. That was where I started. Once I had a lesson plan, I realised I needed a storyboard of sorts to help me break the course down into lessons. That evolved into the outline I have written for every course I have created since. Now, after eight years of creating courses, I have a process I follow. All I need is a topic and time to plan, outline, record, edit and post. (Five steps) On big projects, many tasks are completed before the project ends. Yet, if you were to try to predict what needs to be done at the start, you will find you are wasting a lot of time. NASA had no idea whether a human being could survive in space. What they did know was that they needed to develop a reliable rocket to get them into space. So, they began with that. Without the rocket, it didn't matter whether a human could survive in space or not. There would have been no way of getting them there. In 1962, NASA didn't know that they would need software to keep the spacecraft on the right trajectory. There was no way they could have planned for that at that point. It was only when they began working on the Gemini programme that they realised software would be needed. Without paint and brushes, it wouldn't matter what colour you wanted to paint your bedroom. In many ways, when you're working on a large, complex project, you're solving problems as you go along. Yet, there's always going to be a starting point. Another thing about bigger projects is setting a deadline. Because we are not sure how long a large project will take to complete, it can be tempting to set an unrealistic deadline. Three months to complete a project that realistically would take twelve. This is why setting up the project's stages will help you. What's the first stage? Give yourself a realistic time frame to complete that first stage. The information you gather during that first stage will guide you with the deadlines for the next stage. I would also take another leaf from NASA's book. President Kennedy said, “before the decade is out”. Given that he made this speech in 1961, NASA had around 9 years to complete the project. Yet it was not absolute. Theoretically, the deadline was 31 December 1969, but the actual deadline was a grey area until NASA got closer to achieving the goal. Deadlines are good as they bring energy to the project. Yet, unrealistic deadlines bring nothing but stress to a project. I know an online course will take me about 6 weeks to complete. I know the process, and I've learned from experience that the whole process takes six weeks. If I were to stop doing all my other work, close my calendar to appointments and work solidly for fourteen hours a day for two weeks, I might be able to complete the course in two weeks, but all I would have is a lot of stress. Not pleasant. Six weeks gives me time to bring the course to life, check things, and make sure everything fits together. And the final part of developing any project is to be clear about your outcomes. I refer you back to the opening quotation from President Kennedy: "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth." A perfect project outcome statement. It's clear about the objective, and there is a timeline. There was nothing else for NASA to know. President Kennedy didn't have the skills or knowledge to do this himself; that was for the scientists and engineers to work out. Something they did with magnificent effort on the 20th July 1969. Thank you, Phil, for your question and thank you to you, too, for listening. It just remains for me to wish you all a very, very productive week.
