048 Progression is greater than Perfection | Daily Show Up

Progression over Perfection. Are you struggling with making progress, because you want to get it perfect?

You want to make sure your idea is implemented correctly... You want to make sure the color is just right... You want to find just the right image... You want it to be “perfect,” right?

Think Progression over Perfection.

Want to get unstuck? Want to increase your productivity? Stop letting perfection stall you implementing, getting started and making progress. 

Here's a truth...  YOU’RE GOING TO MAKE MISTAKES. 

Watch this video on Progression is greater than Perfection... I left the screen overlay on almost the entire episode.... DOH!

Getting going and keep going... progression gets you closer. Progress beats perfection every day of the week. 

The Rock said, “Success isn’t always about greatness. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.”

KEEP SHOWING UP!

047 Being More Consistent | Daily Show Up

Being More Consistent - The key to progress is consistency. Can you show up more consistently and be more consistent in your activities?

What you do once in awhile does not harm you or benefit you. If you want to eat a piece of chocolate cake, cookies and ice cream, or have a slice of pizza every once in awhile, no big deal. If you're being consistent with eating healthy majority of the time and these small cheats won’t harm you.

The same is true if you only do marketing, lead nurturing, lead conversion once in awhile. It won’t benefit you if you're not consistently doing activities to grow your business.

Consistency is about sustainability. Setting goals and activities that you can take action on every day.

A great example I heard about is from a physical fitness trainer...

“You could join that gym that is $150 a month and 30 minutes away because it’s the hot trend and everyone is excited about it right now. You might go over every other day in the first month. But a bit less the second month because the drive takes up too much time. By the third month you are starting to wonder about this $150 a month. By the fourth month you quit. It wasn’t sustainable.”

046 Focus On What's Now - Not What's Next | Daily Show Up

Getting focused on now is the secret to productivity and getting momentum in life or in sales or  business.

You get focused on what’s in front of you... not what's coming. Stop creating solutions for problems that don't exist yet. 

Focus on now, not what's next. 

It's easy to get distracted by what you think you need, and coaches, trainers, thought leaders are going to bombard you with what you could be doing next… But you need to KNOW what you SHOULD be doing and focus on that. 

Know your game plan, know your priorities and focus on taking action… get focused on the now and taking action, not what you could be doing later.

045 Reflection for next level business success- RECOVERY FOR THE MIND - Daily Show Up

Reflection for next level business success. If you're trying to get the next level of your business or career ... Maybe you're trying to increase your sales production levels as a real estate agent, or increase your income as a mortgage lender or increase the numbers of clients you have as an Advisor…

Much of the advice you’ll hear from coaches and trainers on how to reach the next level of success in your business is to increase your training, or reading…

Which on the surface is not horrible advice about reaching the next level. It actually makes sense. 

But I don’t think enough people trying to reach new levels in sales or new production levels in business spend enough time in reflection. 

RECOVERY FOR THE MIND

If you wanted to get physically fit and reach new levels of health, you wouldn’t go to the gym every day and workout the same muscles. Your body and muscles need time to recover so they can grow…

I believe the same is true for your mind... your mind needs time to recover so it grow. 

Constant inputs… even positive inputs, where you are learning something new - DO NOT ALLOW time for rest, reflection and recovery from the ideas you are adding to the mind. 

So use time for reflection so you can get to the next level in your business without burning yourself out.

044 Making Space For Thought & Reflection | Daily Show Up

Making Space For Thought & Reflection 

There is a lot coming at us in today's world... Inputs from everywhere...

And if we're not careful all that information becomes overwhelming and confusing. 

It's underestimated to take time, reflect, to think about things, to be thoughtful, to internalize everything that you see, hear and learn in a day. 

How much time to spending thinking and reflecting?

How much space in your day do you have to be thoughtful and reflective?

043 Showing Up is Underrated - the 2-Minute Rule | Daily Show Up

My friend Ray posted on my Facebook wall this morning sharing something I said 11 years ago. 

Ray was a guest on the Daily Show up - Ray Wilburn Shows Up | Ep 25 Daily Show Up https://youtu.be/B0IZ19d6Y_A

Via James Clear - How to Stop Procrastinating With the “2-Minute Rule”

The Two-Minute Rule states “When you start a new habit, it should take less than two minutes to do.”

You’ll find that nearly any habit can be scaled down into a two-minute version:

“Read before bed each night” becomes “Read one page.”

“Do thirty minutes of yoga” becomes “Take out my yoga mat.”

“Study for class” becomes “Open my notes.”

“Fold the laundry” becomes “Fold one pair of socks.”

“Run three miles” becomes “Tie my running shoes.”

The idea is to make your habits as easy as possible to start.

042 Isolation Effect - Framing Gets You Every Time | Daily Show Up

It's really hard to make decisions in isolation. We like to be able to compare things to other things. That's where Framing comes in. If marketers or salespeople can frame a decision or choice in one way you're more likely to take action or say yes.

041 Creating Problems By Solving Problems | Daily Show Up

No one wants more problems, but if it feels like as a business owner, real estate agents, mortgage lender you are just playing whack-a-mole all day long... every time you solve a problem, you create a problem...

You create a system to solve problems in your business, but then that system creates more and worse problems...

Take a look at the problems you're trying to solve. Maybe they are too obvious and easy... Are you asking yourself "and then what?

The easy problem or obvious problem probably doesn't move you forward the way you hoped. 

The three things that Darin Persinger shares to do in this video is 

  1. Detach

  2. See Further

  3. Think Bigger
