    How to Have More Energy - Part 2

    This is part two of an episode on how to have more energy. We'd encourage you to check out the first episode for some setup and the first three energy activities. Here’s the main idea: A good life means having the energy to do the things you want to do. There are ways to maximize your limited energy.  Three energy generators: 1. Diet - Your body needs fuel. What types of fuel are you giving your body? 2. Take Action - To generate energy sometimes you just need to get moving. 3. Eliminate & Optimize Energy Drainers - We all have things in our lives that take more from us. How do you eliminate or improve them?   Question to consider - What practice above do you need to work on?   Mailbag - Want Derek & Gage to read a note from you on the podcast during the mailbag?

    Are You Overcommitted?

    Hi friends! We are sorry for our delay in posting. That delay helped prompt today's topic. We are making a couple of changes to All Good Years. The main change is that we will be posting twice a month instead of every week. This will allow us to be more consistent & to share better content. We are excited to be back. Mailbag - Want Derek & Gage to read a note from you on the podcast during the mailbag? Message us on Instagram @AllGoodYears_ or email Hello@allgoodyears.com. Share what's working, stories, and anything else on your mind. Episode Notes: Here’s the main idea: Overcommitting drains us from the moment and leaves us feeling exhausted. By doing less, we live better lives. Three reasons we overcommit: 1. Obligation - I should. 2. Opportunity - I must. 3. Unaware - I didn't know   Two questions to ask if you are overcommitted: 1. What does a consistent life of commitment look like for you? 2. What do you need to stop doing?

Mailbag - Want Derek & Gage to read a note from you on the podcast during the mailbag? Message us on Instagram @AllGoodYears_ or Email Hello@allgoodyears.com! Share what's working, stories, and anything else on your mind. Episode Notes: Here’s the main idea: Being part of meetings does not need to be miserable, but leading a meeting is a skill. The flow covered in today’s show: Prepare before the meetings. This includes an agenda, start times, and goal of the meeting. Facilitate the meeting. This includes setting clear ground rules, keeping the meeting on track, and ensuring healthy conversation. Ensure the meeting ends well. This includes checking in on todos, recapping the meeting, and scheduling the next one if needed. Bonus thoughts! Don’t have a meeting if you don’t have to. A meeting is a tool not a mandate. Not all meetings need to be an hour! If a meeting can be thirty minutes, do it. If your meeting is longer than one hour, create a half time for people to stretch, move, and use the bathroom. Analog is best for engagement. Only invite the people that need to be there Resources & Quotes: Traction by Gino Wickman - https://amzn.to/3oKWRFn
