Today, we are talking about the power of long-term success in our life

The most powerful men who leave the longest-lasting legacy in the world are the ones focused on long-term success

As men, we must not allow ourselves to get caught up in the quick-fix culture

We must work to build a solid foundation for our life so success lasts

Yes, this is the harder way, but it is the way that lasts the longest


Quick Fix-vs-Sustained Growth

  • The Quick fix
  • Quick Fix symptoms
  • "Can I" wins over "should I"
  • The tendency to overbook
  • Quick fixes often hurt the closest relationships
  • Sustained growth
  • Sustained growth focuses on priorities
  • Long-Term Focuses
  • Priorities and Purposes
  • Self-Regulation over Self-Gratification
  • The priority of relationships
  • The daily choices


Adrenaline Fixes-vs-Healthy Choices

  • When you are looking at long-term success, health has to be a factor
  • You want to have energy and be able to last in the long term so you have to think about your health
  • We often live from adrenaline fix to adrenaline fix instead of making the long-term healthy choices
  • Adrenaline isn't sustainable
  • Healthy choices need momentum
  • Find Your Reality
  • Decide to Bring Your Best
  • Flow with natural rhythms of life
  • Embrace the suck when you have to


Constant Turmoil-vs-Intentional Living

  • The battle we face is our decision on what type of headspace we want to have
  • Constant turmoil
  • Just making it and trying to survive
  • The voices in your head
  • Turmoil boils over
  • Intentional Living
  • Purposeful living
  • Watching the compass
  • Intentional relationships
  • The goal is not perfection
  • One intentional decision today can turn into two intentional decisions tomorrow

There has to be a better approach than this.
