On today's episode, I am talking to a very good friend and mentor of mine: Jason Phillips. Jason is the founder of the Nutritional Coaching Institute, which trains coaches to better serve their clients through the use of proper nutrition and the service of coaching. Growing up, Jason struggled with anorexia, his relationship with food, and with his body—but after coming through that built a massively successful business. Today, we talk about his story, his journey, and how he has gone about improving his relationship with food. We also talked about his perspective on balance and “having it all,” because Jason has one of the most full lives I've ever seen. He is always, on a plane, with his daughter, on stage, doing things, serving other people, eating out—but he manages to stay lean and healthy all year ‘round. There are a ton of tangible takeaways and I know you're going to get a lot out of this episode, so let's get into it!

Text Hawk to 66866 to receive a carefully curated email from me each Monday morning to help you start your week off right... Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Twitter/IG: RyanHawk12  https://twitter.com/RyanHawk12 Steve Magness is a world-renowned expert on performance, co-author of Peak Performance: Elevate Your Game, Avoid Burnout, and Thrive with the New Science of Success and The Passion Paradox: A Guide to Going All In, Finding Success, and Discovering the Benefits of an Unbalanced Life, and the author of The Science of Running: How to Find Your Limit and Train to Maximize Your Performance. His new book is called Do Hard Things. Notes: “The best aren't concerned with being the best. They're concerned with being the best at getting better.” Confidence: Confidence needs evidence. Acting with bravado we haven't earned only works on easy things. It backfires on anything truly challenging. Doing difficult things, even if you don't quite succeed at them, is how you develop real confidence. How do you find a good mentor? Do interesting things. Be open to learning and guidance. Be motivated, driven, and curious about something. Put your ego aside. Do good, quality work. The difference between real and fake toughness. Fake toughness is easy to identify. It's Bobby Knight losing control and throwing tantrums in the name of “discipline.” It's the appearance of power without substance behind it. Researchers out of Eastern Washington set out to explore the relationship between leadership style and the development of toughness. After conducting research on nearly two hundred basketball players and their coaches, they concluded, “The results of this study seem to suggest that the ‘keys' to promoting mental toughness do not lie in this autocratic, authoritarian, or oppressive style. It appears to lie, paradoxically, with the coach's ability to produce an environment, which emphasizes trust and inclusion, humility, and service. Sustained Excellence: Observation: the people who sustain success over the long haul are rarely shooting for success. They are focused on the path. Their goal is mastery, which knows no end. What characteristics do the best performers have? Don't get tired of the boring stuff Masters of compartmentalization Can flip the switch Know how to lose well Cultivate perspective Delayed gratification Drive from within Creating an enemy: Whenever an organization, group, or individual works hard to create an enemy to pit their idea/group against, it's a sign you probably shouldn't listen. Us vs. Them is the easiest way to exploit human nature, to get people on your side. It often means there's no substance there. The best way to get the most out of someone is to make them feel secure enough that they can take risks and fail. Most of us don't reach our potential because we default to protective mode. Threatening & demanding makes us protect further. Security and belonging frees us up. “Growth comes at the point of resistance. Skills come from struggle.” “The fact is that often coaches figure out what works in training and then the scientists come in later and explain why it works.” What can we learn about success and performance from Eliud Kipchoge? He is not fanatical about trying to be great all the time. He is consistent & patient. His coach says that the secret is that he makes progress “slowly by slowly.” Motivation + Discipline = Consistency He told The NY Times, "He estimates that he seldom pushes himself past 80 percent — 90 percent, tops — of his maximum effort when he circles the track." "I have a mindset whereby I am a human being. I am walking around as a human being. I learn to perform well at the same time being grounded. And I trust that being humble and being on the ground is the only way to concentrate" "You cannot train alone and expect to run a fast time. There is a formula: 100% of me is nothing compared to 1% of the whole team. And that's teamwork. That's what I value." “To be precise, I am just going to try to run my personal best. If it comes as a world record, I would appreciate it. But I would treat it as a personal best.”

Before the digital age, the lines between business and personal life were quite clear. It's no longer as simple to reconcile work and personal life. Free Weekly Lessons To Learn Meditation So You Can Meditate More Effectively HERE... Unbalanced lives lead to increased stress. It may seem insurmountable, but regaining control over your chaotic life is not difficult. In this article, we'll show you 5 ways to do it. The Cost of Being Married To Your Work While you may be tempted to work longer hours, this will negatively affect your personal life. Poor work-life balance has several effects, including: Fatigue Poor health Lost time with loved ones  Increased expectations Visit Meditation Life Skills On YouTube For Even More Meditation Resources! 5 Ways to Take Back Control of Your Life You may regain control of your unbalanced life in numerous ways. Here are five. Tip #1: Say No Saying no is a skill. You can't please everyone all the time. It's alright to say no if something is demanded of you that doesn't add value to your life. This includes electronics. Turn off your computer, phone, iPad, etc. for a few hours every night. Set an “out of office” auto-reply on your emails and texts to let people know you will respond when you return. You deserve some me-time. Tip #2: Self-Awareness Make yourself a priority. For some, this means spending time alone or reviving a long-lost interest. This covers your mental, bodily, and spiritual well-being. Remove all pollutants, including negative influences. After all, if you don't look after yourself, you'll get burned out and possibly have a breakdown. Tip #3: Focus on Relationships While your paychecks may look beautiful, your kids may not remember everything you purchased them. They will remember the time you spent with them. Time is a limited resource that cannot be replaced. So spend time with your loved ones. Those are the important things in life. Tip #4: Become more aware of your surroundings Have you always wanted to learn something or travel somewhere? Take your time. Consider a lesson or a trip. Experiencing doesn't require leaving your home. Find out what's unique about your area and go explore it. You never know what you'll find. Tip #5: Plan Your Time Time management is vital when you want to take back control of your life. That is, if your workday starts at 8 AM and concludes at 5 PM, you must stop at 5 PM. Sure, if you're finishing a project, you can go a bit late, but don't let work consume your life. You may need to schedule time with loved ones until you find balance. This is wonderful advice, especially if your work-life balance has gotten out of hand. Conclusion It's vital to regain control of your chaotic existence. It is not difficult if you make it a priority. With these simple suggestions, you'll be finding balance in no time.

Tanner Shuck (@tanner_shuck) is a strength and conditioning coach and fitness writer currently based in Dubai. After playing football at Rice University in college, Tanner found Crossfit and pursued a career in fitness. Tanner won the Dubai Fitness Championship in 2014 but unfortunately had been sidelined with injuries shortly after. Since then, he's been a coach for Crossfit and high performing athletes, and these days works mainly with general population clients to improve their fitness, and by association, their entire life. I reached out to Tanner after he posted this video, where he is encouraging us to live what he calls a “positively unbalanced” life: to go all in on the things that we are pursuing without holding back. That is the only way to be truly great at anything. Taking a balanced approach tends to lead to perpetually spinning your wheels, and never really making much forward progress. We spoke about this concept at length.As any good coach will tell you, the basics of exercise and nutrition are BY FAR the most important. Naturally, Tanner and I agreed on this and spoke about the importance of getting really good at these things. And then applying them forever: that is how you reach your goals, fitness or otherwise. Tanner is not the type of guy who will sugarcoat things; he's going to tell you like it is, and I admire that. One step beyond this though, is that Tanner really walks the walk. All the stuff he talks about, he actually does. He's about as authentic as they come, and I believe we collectively need to celebrate this more. You should be following Tanner on IG where he'd be happy to connect with you. You should also visit Tanner's website, truestrength.co to check out more of his coaching and programming. Tanner also contributes as a writer to T-Nation, and you can check out his articles here. I would greatly appreciate any comments, questions or feedback. If you could share this with a friend, that would mean the world to me. If you enjoy this podcast, I would be extremely grateful if you subscribed and left a short review on iTunes. It really helps to spread the message and ultimately help more people.  Connect with me on Instagram @danielyoresConnect with me on Twitter @danielyores Podcast Cover Art by @octopuslegss

Bottom Line Faith is the program that bridges the gap between faith and business. Today's show features Charlie Haines, Founder and CEO of The Provident Project. bottomlinefaith.org

We've heard from a lot of you that one of our most popular episodes was a little hard to find, so we're sharing it with you again! America's trusted voice on money and business, https://www.ramseysolutions.com/ (Dave Ramsey), is a personal money management expert and extremely popular national radio personality. Dave joins https://theactioncatalyst.com/ (Action Catalyst) host Dan Moore to talk about how to find your calling by fulfilling a need, how true leaders don't push; they pull, how living a "balanced" life isn't necessarily the key to success, and why attitude = action. https://theactioncatalyst.com/2019/02/13/find-your-calling-by-fulfilling-a-need-episode-269-of-the-action-catalyst-podcast/ (Find the original episode here.)

Are You Experiencing an Unbalanced Season or Unbalanced Life? Take a moment to step back and look at your life from a wider lens. Look at the big picture and consider your friends, family, and work life. How do you feel about what you see? If you're feeling burned out or like you don't have the time, flexibility, or peace of mind that you wish you had, then you're likely experiencing an imbalance. Occasional imbalances are just a part of life, but they shouldn't be a way of life. Is what you're experiencing due to temporary circumstances, or does it feel more like a cycle of repetition?  In today's episode, Blake helps you understand the difference between an unbalanced season and an unbalanced life that could be steering you off course. We have the tendency to push ourselves to get it all done, but that actually results in brain fatigue. We can't do our best work or be at full capacity when we're not fully charged, so recognizing the difference is crucial for our wellbeing. Today, you'll learn to recognize if it's time for you to recharge and take back control to find the balance you need to be your best.  What You'll Learn: • The definition of an unbalanced season(1:55)
 • What it means if you're continuously saying this one sentence to yourself (3:12)
 • How you're creating brain fatigue by pushing yourself too hard (5:12)
 • Why you're more powerful than you think you are (7:35)
 • Choosing a better way to find balance in your life (8:17)
 Favorite Quotes: 1. Oftentimes, we interpret what's going on as an individual circumstance. And we think, well, this is just the way it is right now. But, it will get better. But, what I see is if you zoom out and take a 30,000 feet view, oftentimes you see things that you had been missing. 
 2. Just because something's common doesn't mean it's normal. And it also doesn't mean that there's not a better way.
 3. It's time that we, as women, start to realize that we have far more power and control over our lives than we've believed.
 4. Our circumstances are only a piece of the puzzle. Until we understand what is causing us to be imbalanced, we'll create the same pattern over and over and over again.   Additional Resources: To schedule a 15-minute discovery call to see if or how Blake can help you, go to: www.speakwithBlake.com To get access to free resources, updates & future events, join Blake's newsletter at: www.bridge2fulfillment.com For more information about us & alternate ways to connect, visit: www.ConnectionsIlluminated.com

My guest today is dating and confidence coach, Nick Notas. For more than twelve years he has helped men conquer their fears, build self-esteem, and develop meaningful relationships. In the age of Tinder, dating can be a challenge, and Nick offers tons of practical advice to help in that arena.

In this thought-provoking conversation, the trio discusses: -how passion can be a gift or a curse; -the difference between obsessive and harmonious passion; -the critical importance of rest—and patience; -how to get over a disappointing race finish; and, -the benefits of getting older. The mother runners talk parenting in the intro, including the value of occasionally loosening the reins on teens. Brad joins the conversation at 13:12. Thanks for the continued support, Native.

What if advice we get to “follow your passion” is more complicated that it seems? Steve Magness is co-author with Brad Stulberg of the book, The Passion Paradox: A Guide to Going All In, Finding Success, and Discovering the Benefits of an Unbalanced Life. Steve coaches some of the world’s top distance runners and has propelled numerous athletes to Olympic trials, world championship teams, and the Olympics. He has been a featured expert in Runner’s World and the New York Times. When faced with the choice of what to do with our lives, we’re often told, “follow your passion.” Steve believes this advice can be overwhelming, incomplete, and, ultimately, defeating. That’s why he and Brad decided to study the topic. They wanted to demystify it. Along the way, they learned that passion not only fuels big accomplishments, but it can also be problematic. They share that, “passion and addiction are close cousins.” In this interview, Steve shares ways to develop our passion and insights on how failure can play a role in our search. He also gives tips on how to sustain our passion for the long haul by doing things like focusing on what we can control, rather than what our competitors are doing. He contends, “We can’t control what other people do and where that bar is. But what we can control is making the comparison point a previous version of yourself.” The Host You can learn more about Curious Minds Host and Creator, Gayle Allen, and Producer, Rob Mancabelli, by visiting @CuriousGayle and www.gayleallen.net Episode Links @stevemagness and https://www.scienceofrunning.com/ @BStulberg and https://www.bradstulberg.com/ Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World by David Epstein Instead of “Finding Your Passion,” Try Developing It, Stanford Scholars Say Les Passions de l’Ame: On Obsessive and Harmonious Passion Shalane Flanagan Obey the 24-Hour Rule Simple Ways to Support the Podcast If you enjoy the podcast, there are three simple ways you can support our work.

Cal Newport is a computer science professor at Georgetown University and the author of 6 books, including New York Times bestseller Digital Minimalism. His writing focuses on the impact of new technology and social media on our ability to be productive and lead satisfying lives. Not surprisingly, his research suggests we’re becoming less connected and getting less done as technology permeates every moment of our day. For this podcast, I got to sit down face to face with Cal to discuss his ideas on digital minimalism. He describes how big business has manipulated us into constantly checking our phones, and is now profiting off of our attention. We discuss the consequences of pervasive technology, and the damaging effect it can have on our drive to create and connect with others in meaningful ways.  Fortunately, Cal also has a solution for turning your attention back to the things that really matter.

Currently a columnist for Outside magazine, Brad has also written for the New York Times, Wired, New York Magazine, Sports Illustrated, and more. His work also includes coaching executives, entrepreneurs, and athletes. In this podcast, Brad and I talk about passion - specifically the idea of developing your passion, rather than “finding” it. Brad discusses how passion can be a blessing or a curse, highlighting examples of people whose obsessive approach to their work has led to their downfall. He discusses the myth of living a balanced life and offers advice for people nearing burnout. Brad also describes what the research says about quitting your day job to pursue your passion.

Brad Stulberg is a polymath whose first book with coach Steve Magness, Peak Performance, was one of my favorite reads from 2018. His work focuses on helping athletes, business executives, and other top performers improve their chances of success by work on: Defining a path for long-term progression Mental toughness Developing sustainable motivation and purpose How to get into a deep-focus "flow" state Building resilience Development of optimal routines His latest book is also coauthored by Steve Magness, titled The Passion Paradox: A Guide to Going All In, Finding Success, and Discovering the Benefits of an Unbalanced Life. In this conversation, we spend time focusing on the nuances of passion, obsession, and building interest in things that we like. His book is a defense of passion. It's a more nuanced, effective perspective on passion that acknowledges that it's hard to find, that it must be cultivated, and that too much of it can indeed be a bad thing.

If you've ever wanted greater success in your life, then do we have the Passion Paradox show for you! Today I'll be speaking with Brad Stulberg and Steve Magness, coa-authors of the bestseller Peak Performance and authors of a brilliant book on finding success, The Passion Paradox. And that's just what I want to talk with them about today, about going all in, finding success, and discovering the benefits of an UNBALANCED life.  The Passion Paradox Self-Improvement & Self-Help Topics Include: What really is passion? What's the dark side of passion? What's the biology of passion? What's the danger on relying upon your success for happiness? What's the danger of our obsessions? What's a “fit mind-set of passion” What's the importance of lowering the bar to perfection when it comes to finding your passion? What's the danger of “go big or go home”? What is harmonious passion? What's the mastery mindset? What's it mean to “drive from within”? What's the importance of focusing on the process? Why don't we want to worry about being the best? What does it mean to embrace acute failure for chronic gains? What's the importance of patience when it comes to your passion? What in the world does watching paint dry have to do with anything? Why are passion and balance antithetical? Why might unbalanced be the way to go? How do we cultivate self-awareness, particularly when “lost” in our passion? What's the importance of having a close reationship with ourselves? What can we learn from the Buddhist practice of five rememberances?

Greetings, SuperFriends! For this week's episode, I got on a call with 2 incredibly smart authors, Brad Stulberg and Steve Magness. They are the co-authors of the new and highly anticipated book The Passion Paradox: A Guide to Going All-In, Finding Success, and Discovering the Benefits of an Unbalanced Life. You folks probably know that I'm passionate about passion - but the truth is, we've never actually had anyone on the show talk about it as a field of study or a field of Becoming SuperHuman. So, I wanted to have these 2 gentlemen on the show - and I learned that this is really an emerging field which is still not so well understood, similar to the way flow states were 20-30 years ago. In the episode, we talked about passion and how it is such an ambiguous, kind of misunderstood area of human experience, and we also set aside some time to really understand where these misconceptions are, how people perceive passion, why passion is important in your life, and most importantly, I think, how you can actually go about getting more passion in your life. In fact, and somewhat unexpectedly, there are ways that you can achieve that and strategies that actually really surprised me. Another thing that surprised me about this episode was what I learned about recovery. We've talked about recovery a lot on this podcast and especially in the Becoming SuperHuman MasterMind where Benjamin Hardy did a whole segment on it. Well, Brad and Steve gave me some really incredible ideas for how I can supercharge my own recovery periods so that I bounce back faster from long working or recording days. I really enjoyed this episode, and I know you are going to as well! -Jonathan Levi

Brad Stulberg, best-selling author "Peak Performance" and the recently (last week!) released book "The Passion Paradox: A Guide to Going All-In, Finding Success, and Discovering the Benefits of an Unbalanced Life" joins us on this episode and he definitely brought his A-game! Outstanding insights on how to apply the concepts from his books to the realities of life. He covers self-compassion, the value of the "next logical step," the truth about the "perfect" diet or workout plan (hint - there isn't one) and how to bring it all into focus in our lives and our coaching.

“There is both good passion and bad passion. And what direction your passion takes is largely up to you.”Brad Stulberg & Steve Magness Follow your passion.For many it's a mantra. For others, an over-hyped trope.I plead guilty to advocating this pursuit — a subject worthy of frequent exploration on the podcast.But is a life propelled by passion always the best course of action?The answer, it turns out, is complicated.Passion can be a gift. But only if you know how to properly channel it. The same drive that fuels breakthroughs — whether they're athletic, scientific, entrepreneurial, or artistic — can be every bit as destructive as it is productive. Unchecked by balance (that other culturally touted virtue), passion can manifest as a curse, leading to endless seeking, suffering, and burnout.Simply put, passion is a paradox.To demystify this important subject, my friends Brad Stulberg and Steve Magness return to the podcast (their 1st appearance was RRP 293 back in June 2017) to explore how to develop, harness and express the right kind of passion to unlock potential and actualize a meaningful, purpose-driven life.Long time listeners might recall Steve as a former elite track & field athlete who clocked an extraordinary 4:01 mile in high school. Today, Steve is one of the most accomplished, respected and in demand track & field and cross country coaches in the world. In addition to serving up duties at the University of Houston, he is the personal coach to some of the most accomplished professional and Olympic runners on the planet. In addition, he consults with start-up technology companies on innovation and growth, holds a Master’s degree in Exercise Science from George Mason University, and serves as an adjunct professor at St. Mary’s University in the United Kingdom.Brad is a former McKinsey & Co. health care consultant turned writer specializing in the health and science of human performance. Lauded for his ability to merge the latest science with compelling personal stories and practical insights, his work has been published in The New York Times, Outside Magazine, New York Magazine, Forbes, NPR, The Los Angeles Times & Runner’s World.Together, Steve and Brad are the co-authors of Peak Performance: Elevate Your Game, Avoid Burnout, and Thrive with the New Science of Success*, a science-based primer on the principles that drive and sustain high performance in sport, business and life.This week marks the publication of their latest collaboration, aptly titled The Passion Paradox: A Guide to Going All In, Finding Success, and Discovering the Benefits of an Unbalanced Life*. A fascinating look int0 the science behind passion and it’s double-edge-sword nature, it's a must read for anyone searching for that spark or how to best harness its magical powers to unlock inner potential.Today's conversation is a wide-ranging exploration into the very nature of passion. Chock-a-block with scientific takeaways & experiential insights, we examine the pros and cons of this intoxicating impulse. We mine how one finds and cultivates the kind of passion that lets you ach... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

"Passion" is a word that's been thrown around a lot in the last few decades. People have a vague notion that passion is a very good thing, and that they want to find it in their work and lives. But beyond passion as a buzzword, its realities are actually very little discussed and seldomly well understood. My guests today have set out to correct this deficit in their new book: The Passion Paradox: A Guide to Going All In, Finding Success, and Discovering the Benefits of an Unbalanced Life. Their names are Brad Stulberg and Steve Magness, and I had them on the show last year to discuss their book Peak Performance. Today, we talk about the parts of passion that rarely get talked about: that it has both a positive and a negative side, how the advice to “find your passion” isn’t very useful, and the 3 things you need to really grow your passion. We also discuss why going all-in on your passion too early can lead to long-term failure, how passion can lead individuals to cheat to get and stay ahead, and why embracing the 6 pillars of the "mastery mindset" can help negate the negative side of passion, and harness its positive powers. We end our conversation discussing how it's okay to have an unbalanced life, and what to do if you can no longer do the thing you’re passionate about or you simply stop being passionate about your work.

Still hammering out how to get my podcasts recorded while working full time and doing all the family things. This episode didn't turn out too bad as far as sound. I do apologize for a few background noises!  Also I'm trying out a new format and I think it's going to work well. Episodes that follow this format will include 1-3 parts that reflect on 1) Vocation Thoughts 2) Learning Something 3) Clinging to Scripture  I say 1-3 because sometimes I might do an entire episode on just one of those ideas. But generally I think this approach will help me get focused and streamline things a bit (if I'm capable of such a thing). This week... Vocation  What is TOO MUCH for one's schedule? What is best for my kids' schedules? Does anyone agree on this? lol I reflect.  Learning Reminder: You can put down some of the plates! I ran into this video the other day - LINK HERE - and she points out it's better to not try to balance all the plates but just to put some down. Smart woman! We should be encouraging each other to do this. also Being Lutheran podcast is my current favorite and they said something super profound the other day that I unpack in this episode. "The Christian life is assurance of salvation and the doctrine of vocation..." I love it. Find out why.  Scripture  Psalm 145:4-5 One generation shall praise Your works to another, And shall declare Your mighty acts. I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, And on Your wondrous works. Wonderous works! You know like when your teenager talks to you! It's a miracle! ;)    *** To continue the conversation: find me on TWITTER, go to the facebook page, or email me! - angiejean.99@gmail.com. Check out blog posts on www.shefindstruth.com!

The quest for balance is something I hear about all the time. How can we create our dream business, win that powerlifting meet, have a family, keep our day job, be the fittest chick in the gym, and find time for self care and adventure and down time.. all at once??!The pressure to not only do it ALL, but to do it all in beautiful harmony with a smile on our face is real.Can it be done? Should it be done?Here’s my argument for why living in the unbalance is not only ok, but suggested, for at least some seasons of life.Read the original post HERELiked this episode? Leave me a review and tell me why!

The beautiful and totally frustrating thing about life is that we work so hard to find balance yet it's a battle that we're never going to win. Balance is bull shit. But the beautiful journey to finding balance is real, and raw, and complicated, and beautiful!   WHAT'S IN TODAY'S PODCAST: In this episode, I share the truth about the unbalanced parts of my life and my feelings on finding balance. I'm sharing the specific question I use to stay clear on my own priorities and my two go-to steps for establishing priorities, no matter what area of life.

Matt Maszczak, Social Beast & Host of Balance is Bunk BIO:  I generally describe myself as, ‘Husband to one, father and friend to many. A writer, speaker, blogger, podcaster and social beast. A lover of pizza, Doctor Who, and Back to the Future.” While that is all true, I doubt it’s what you’re really wondering. I am a writer that loves to create engaging content that converts. There is nothing more satisfying than watching my words spark action in someone. I get giddy every time someone clicks through on a post I wrote, or adds their name to an email list I suggested. Every retweet, repost, and share is cause for celebration in my world. That’s why I do what I do. I am also a seasoned audio professional with years of experience on the road and in the studio. If writing is my first love then audio is my mistress. I have been a musician and sound engineer much longer than I have been a writer and I take great pride in making my clients sound great. I’ve been working in digital audio editing since 1997. How many people can say that? Join me today as we talk with Matt Maszczak of the Balance is Bunk Podcast.  We will talk all about the myth of achieving balance in your life and your business and what you can do about it. LISTEN HERE   SHOW NOTES [Time Stamp 2:40] Matt introduces himself and explains what ‘Social Beast’ means for him and how it benefits his clients.

The secrets of temporarily unbalancing your life to achieve your dreams… On today's episode Russell talks about why his life is unbalanced because he isn't getting any sleep and why right now, that is okay. Here are some things you'll hear in this episode: Why entrepreneurs don't have the privilege of living a balanced life when you are just starting out. And why you have to sacrifice balance sometimes to get the momentum you need to succeed. So listen below to find out why it's okay for Russell to live an unbalanced life sometimes. ---Transcript--- Hey, everyone. This is Russell Brunson, and I want to welcome you to a special late night “Marketing in Your Car.” Actually it should be called, “Marketing in Your Ferrari”, because right now, late at night, I'm driving to the office in the Ferrari. Hey, everyone. I want to welcome you to this webinar. This is not a webinar. This is a podcast. You can tell my brain's a little bit fried right now. Over the last week or so, we've had Todd and Dylan and Chris and the entire Click Funnels crew flew in to Boise so we could focus on getting Click Funnels live and launched, and it's been super fun. We're halfway through the week, and we've got the other half coming up, and so I'm going in for another late-night session so that we can keep cranking this thing out so we can have it ready for you guys all to experience here soon, and I'm really excited. We've got some amazing changes. If any of you guys have used Click Funnels yet, you're going to be blown away by the new editor and the new UI that we're rolling it out on Thursday, and so we're trying to hit a hard deadline and get it all done by Thursday, which will be pretty cool. So that's why we're all killing ourselves right now. I was thinking about some stuff recently. In my life, I've been trying to do so many things. I've been trying to get this new company launched while keeping our old company growing, while being a dad with my kids now in football, and my daughter in soccer, and then trying to be a good husband, and trying to do all of my church responsibilities. There're so many things that are happening right now, and I've been trying to live a balanced life and because of that, I basically had to cut out sleep almost completely from my schedule, which has caught up with me. It's been hurting, so I've been trying to get some more sleep, and so I'm trying to figure out, what do you do? They always talk about living a balanced life, and how do you do that as an entrepreneur, especially when you're trying to launch a new company, and trying to provide value to the world. How do you do it? I was thinking about a couple of things, and funny enough, by both of them coming from Mark Cuban, who, if you guys don't know who Mark Cuban is, you're probably living under a rock right now, but one thing he said that was really interesting, and I'm going to slaughter the quote, but he said something along the lines of – something about sleeping at night, like, “While my competitors sleep, and I'm staying up at night getting ready to kick his butt,” or something like that, and so that's been our mantra, because we've been going through this. We've got a couple of big competitors, some of them with VC money and everything that we're competing against. We're the ones busting our butts at night while they're sleeping soundly in their beds, and they're not going to know what came and hit them, so that's exciting. The other Mark Cuban thing was I was listening to, watching “Shark Tank”. This was a couple of months ago, but I remember this one scene, and it kept replaying through my head this weekend as I was trying to figure out how to become more balanced. He was talking about how, as an entrepreneur, when you're first getting started out, you can't lead a balanced life. He was talking about how things have to fall to the wayside, because there's so much effort and momentum that has to go into launching this thing. He was like, “Entrepreneurs do not get the privilege,” or whatever you want to call it, “the luxury of having a balanced life when they're getting started.” Someday, obviously, the goal of being an entrepreneur is to shift that, right? So all of this effort, you kind of frontloaded turns into this company that pays for itself, pays for you and your family so that you can go and live those things you want. It got me thinking about that. It's not good to always live your life unbalanced, but there are times when I think you have to, to be able to push forward and to succeed. I look at when I was wrestling in high school and college. My life was very unbalanced towards that, but that's what I had to do to be able to succeed. You've got to sacrifice other things to be able to do that. I look at the two years I spend on a mission for my church, and when I was doing that, life was very unbalanced. I was giving up everything else to be able to focus on that aspect and to be able to serve the world in that way, and so while I think that the goal is to get to a balanced life,  I think in order to get the momentum you need to succeed at almost anything, that initial inertia comes from being not in balance, and so you have to kind of pick and choose. Tonight, my wife and I sat down, and we started talking about what aspects I need to cut during this process to be able to function, so there's going to be some things in my life that I love that I'm going to have to cut out just so that I don't die [laughs] from lack of sleep and lack of everything, right? So one of the things I'm going to cut out is going to be weight-training. It's going to be this and that, and like, “What are the pieces I'm going to pull out so that I can focus on the good stuff which is obviously launching this company and having success with it and all of those types of things. Anyway, kind of fun – that's what's going down. I'm at the office now. Late night, I'm driving the Ferrari. Things are good. Time to get this Click Funnels launched so it can change the world, both your guys' and mine. I'm excited, and I will talk to you guys soon.
