Ep. 262 - Make Your Someday Goals a Reality
Wouldn't it be great if you could fire up a time machine and travel to the end of this pandemic? Better yet, what if you could transform to an extraordinary future where you not only accomplish all your big goals, but you achieve them without stress or overwhelm? This may sound like a fantasy, but it's more achievable than you think. When you practice mental time travel and get clarity on where you want to go, you can rewind the steps to where you are now and devise a plan to get there. This is what we call "goal setting to the now." In this episode, we're going to walk through what this concept has done in our lives. By setting five year goals and then really big "someday" goals, and aligning your actions today with those goals, you will have a simple plan to follow that gets you closer to the life you want every day. If this sounds interesting to you, you can join our annual Goal Setting Retreat by visiting the1thing.com/setmygoals. In this episode, you will learn...

Ep. 261 - How He Quit His Job and She Got Her Husband Back
Is your relationship moving forward or are you caught in a predictable loop of business as usual? There's nothing wrong with your day-to-day routine when everything is fine. But ask yourself: Is fine where extraordinary happens? Sometimes you're at a point in your life where you don't have a specific challenge to overcome—and that can be a good thing—and yet, sometimes, it can feel like you're meant for something more. How do you take back control of your relationship and your life? Meet Monica and Chris Tschantz. They were living a good life, and everything was fine. But behind the scenes, they were overworked, lacked purposeful connection, and struggled to find clarity for what they wanted in their life. One conversation they had at The ONE Thing Goal Setting Retreat started them down the path to increased happiness, extreme alignment, and renewed clarity on what mattered most—and what they needed to let go. The extraordinary outcome of a small, two-day investment was that they got their life back. This is what becomes possible when you take time to become aligned with your most important relationships. If you want to do the same, join us at our the1thing.com/setmygoals. In this episode, you will learn... [02:24] Being introduced to The ONE Thing.

Ep. 260 - How to Pivot as a Leader in the Face of Change
Socrates said, "The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new." The truth is that change is hard—especially uninvited change. It is often that change that pushes you in directions you would have otherwise never explored, and that's where growth happens. What becomes possible if, when ushered into new territory, you quickly reset your vision on what you are creating and let go of what existed before? Donna Miller's proven business model of over 25 years was suddenly tested in ways that she couldn't have imagined. As she was forced to double-down and reexamine every area of what once was, she did more than rebuild her business strategy — she also pivoted her leadership approach, and the results have been extraordinary. If you're interested in learning more about how to set goals for the upcoming year and want to check out our upcoming Virtual Goal Setting Retreat, visit the1thing.com/setmygoals. In this episode, you will learn...

What do you think the future of your work could look like? With everything that's going on, we have the opportunity to pause, to ask different questions, and to reevaluate what our vision for the future looks like. All around the world, people's opinions of what the future of work looks like have changed. We're going to walk you through the questions we've been asking over the last few months, the research we've been doing, how our vision has changed, and how the principles of The ONE Thing line up with it—all in service of you going on your own journey to ask what the future of your work will look like. In every shift, there is a gift. This is a chance to look at the goals we've set and decide if they are still the same. One way to envision your future is to get clear on your values.

Ep. 258 - How Tiny Habits Create Extraordinary Change | BJ Fogg, PhD
What if we told you that you are only one habit away from making your goal a reality? It's the truth. The problem is that, while habit formation is simple, it can be challenging. For anyone who's tried to make a habit stick you know what it feels like to struggle with consistency and doubt. BJ Fogg, the author of the best-selling book "Tiny Habits", is going to help you understand that the key to habit formation is not about thinking big and acting big: It's about thinking big and going small and trusting that, if you can identify that domino and whack away at it, all of the other dominos will fall. Some habits take longer to form than others, and that's why we're having this conversation today. We're going to dissect why the key to habit formation is all about forming tiny habits. Going small takes courage when our ego wants to go big. The path to getting everything you want starts with one thing at a time. Do you have the courage to go small? We want to be on the journey with you. Visit the1thing.com/setmygoals to attend our Virtual Goal Setting Retreat. In this episode, you will learn...

Ep. 257 - How to Boss Up and Build Your Empire
How do we unpack the lies that keep us from experiencing extraordinary success? One lie in particular that holds most people back is that "big is bad." It's tricky to debunk because, when you put "big" and "results" in the same sentence, many people jump straight to thinking that big is complex, time-consuming, or intimidating. But the four ambitious leaders of the Empire Building podcast live in a way that embraces big thinking. The massive goals they've set for their businesses are only exceeded by their even bigger visions for what it means to live an extraordinary life. They are successful entrepreneurs, philanthropists, wives, and mothers who have started and expanded multi-million dollar businesses, and they share their tips for thinking bigger than you ever thought possible. It is so important to surround yourself with people who build you up and support you. If you want to bring bigger thinking and more support to the people around you, visit the1thing.com/setmygoals to join our virtual goal-setting retreat. In this episode, you will learn...

Ep. 255 - Best of Habits | Sobriety with Grace Vroom
If you want to change your life, you have to get honest with yourself. What's working? What isn't working? Who's bringing you forward and who's bringing you back? Candid self-reflection can reveal things you wish weren't there, but knowing what you're dealing with makes big change possible. Our guest, Grace Vroom, knew something had to give; there were countless areas of her life that she wanted to improve, but it was only after getting honest about her addiction to alcohol that she started to make any progress. Sobriety felt like such a daunting must-do on Grace's self-improvement to-do list that she didn't know how to start and she didn't think she could sustain it.
