    Shine - 10 Disciplines for Maximizing Your Impact and Inner Peace

    Shine - 10 Disciplines for Maximizing Your Impact and Inner Peace

    If you think your anxieties and insecurities are giving you that extra edge, extra drive, think again. In Gino Wickman’s newest book, “Shine: How Looking Inward Is the Key to Unlocking True Entrepreneurial Freedom,” he shows how inner peace leads to more positive, productive energy.
    On our episode today, Gino shares with us the 10 Disciplines to achieve that peace in very practical, and simple terms. If you’re afraid he is going to advise you to go live in a hut on a mountain top, don’t be. His tips are for driven entrepreneurs just like us.
    The bottom line: While you’re achieving outside successes (wealth, status, etc.), you can also be working on inside successes (living authentically, calming your central nervous system, etc.). As Gino will tell you, if he can do it, you can do it!
    If you're a bold risk taker who wants to dream big and achieve a higher level of success in your life or business, visit the1thing.com to learn about our one-on-one coaching, as well as our exclusive community membership program.

    The Lies That Mislead and Derail Us

    The Lies That Mislead and Derail Us

    Are you lying to yourself? There are lies we tell ourselves all the time that trip us up. They’re little things we whisper in our own ear that we think will help us be productive, build good habits, or grow our business, but they don’t. In this episode, we’re going to go over the most common lies that mislead and derail us.
    The list includes things like “Oh I’ll just multitask and get these things done quicker” or “I’ll just rely on willpower in the moment.” Those are statements that only lead to struggles and failure later. Don’t use them to plan your day, much less your life.
    We talk frankly about prioritization, focus, discipline, willpower, and work-life balance. We give you the truth to counteract those little lies. Tune in and learn what to tell yourself next time you’re tempted to mislead yourself.

    Creating a Culture of Growth

    Creating a Culture of Growth

    You’ve probably heard of the fixed vs. growth mindset. But did you know it applies to whole organizations, not just individual people? And, just like with individuals, there are certain things you can do to change, improve, and support an organization’s mindset. Today, Dr. Mary C. Murphy, a protege of Carol Dweck and an esteemed psychology researcher in her own right, takes us through her newest book, “Cultures of Growth.”
    Business organizations are full of mindset triggers– situations that shift individuals’ mindset to be more fixed-oriented than growth-oriented. Evaluations, high effort assignments, and feedback can easily create fixed mindset thoughts of “I’m terrible” or “I’m great” instead of “What can I continue to get better.” Dr. Murphy discusses how leaders, and even non-leaders, can purposefully frame these situations to prevent a slide into a fixed-mindset and create an overall culture that supports growth mindsets.
    This episode is jam-packed with neuroscience research, actionable tips, and “aha” moments. Dr. Murphy really puts on a masterclass for us. We hope you get as much out of it as we did.
    Check out Dr. Mary C. Murphy’s book, "Cultures of Growth," today. In a world where success seems reserved for a chosen few, Cultures of Growth unveils a radically different approach to creating organizations that inspire learning, growth, and success at all levels.

    Worthy: How to Believe You Are Enough and Transform Your Life

    Worthy: How to Believe You Are Enough and Transform Your Life

    In this remarkable episode, we sit down with the extraordinary Jamie Kern Lima—self-made entrepreneur, champion of women, philanthropist, keynote speaker, and the co-founder of IT Cosmetics. Starting from her living room, Jamie built her company into a billion-dollar empire, eventually selling it to L'Oreal for an astonishing 1.2 billion dollars. Her success led her to become the first female CEO in L’Oreal’s history of over a century and secured her a spot on Forbes' list of richest self-made women. Beyond her impressive business achievements, Jamie is an active investor in more than 15 companies and today, she shares her wisdom and insights from her journey.
    During our conversation, Jamie delves deep into the themes of her book, "Worthy," exploring the crucial distinction between self-worth and self-confidence—a differentiation many of us struggle to understand. Despite her long list of accomplishments, Jamie reveals how achievements alone did not fulfill her self-worth, shedding light on a common pitfall for many achievers. The insight that "In life, you don't soar to the level of your hopes and dreams, you stay stuck at the level of your self-worth," underscores the importance of internal work over external achievements for true fulfillment.
    Don't miss out on this incredible conversation. Tune in to gain insights that could change your perspective on success, self-worth, and the path to fulfilling your true potential.
    Check out Jamie Kern Lima’s book, "Worthy," today. It's a resource not to be overlooked by anyone on a journey toward personal and professional growth.
